CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Just left the academia armed with a piece of fancy paper and a penchant for real things.

Ready to fumble about cheaply. Looking to head west and south as time goes on.

Just started the lowbrow society for the arts in New York City and trying to make huge celebrations of artists who aren't full of shit.

PHILOSOPHY

Being uncomfortable means that I'm growing.
Sign me up for the new and the different.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One night of fire, street party, NYC. 2007.

Brilliantly dressed people in white and red took over the whole bridge with circus acts and music and love. Then we massed the subway, crowd surfing and singing all the way to Coney Island where we skinny dipped while fire was spinning.

Organized the "MOVE!" subway party. NYC. 2009
