ABOUT ME
Currently live in Brooklyn, NY. I do the New York artist hustle. I'm teaching a critical theory class at a DIY school called the School for Poetic Computation. I'm also doing an art residency at a wonderful place called Eyebeam Art & Technology Center.
PHILOSOPHY
I think that so much of society is trying to teach us to be scared of one another but actually I think most people are good and worth of trust. I'm interested in being a free person. And to treat others with respect and dignity.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm happy to show people around Brooklyn.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've done more WWOOFing than couchsurfing, which is an awesome network of working on organic farms. I've also participated in warmshowers.com, which is like couch surfing but for bike tourists.
