ABOUT ME
I am Shai, living in Princeton NJ with my wife Noa and toddler Oz.
Noa is a physicist at Princeton Uni.
I'm an social entrepreneur, graphic designer, illustrator, activist, freegan, and like to get things moving. I'm into hiking, beatbox/rap, DIY, growing and cooking food, sustainable ways of living, and always learning. I use the internet as a tool for positive change.
I love traveling, especially with moments of improvisation. It gives you a lot of perspective :)
PHILOSOPHY
Somewhere, something amazing is waiting to be known.
- Carl Sagan
You can either have one guy lifting a billion pounds by himself, and it takes many years of planning and preparation - or you can have a billion people, each lifting one pound, and it takes a mere moment. This is the power of unity.
- Jacque Fresco
I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all the kinds of things you can't see from the center.
- Kurt Vonnegut

Movies. Things that make you think or at least freak out. Waking Life, Synecdoche NY, Lynch, Jarmuch, Jodorovsky...
Monty Python of course!
Books. I mix each non-fiction book with one fiction, which ranges between a lot of subjects and genres.
