CURRENT MISSION

To figure out how to make money as an artist

ABOUT ME

I'm an artist and activist, living with lots of lovely friends. Interested in fine art (new media, performance, etc), psychotherapy, politics and vegan chocolate cake.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm an anarchist, so I reckon voluntary association and horizontal community projects (like CS!) are the way forward. Also that any meaninful "revolution" must include joy, love and swimming in the river (not just seizing the means of production) Hooray!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By hosting and surfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined couchsurfing after meeting some lovely surfers who've stayed in our attic. It seems a good way to get over the fear of strangers that is drummed into us all.

Centres d'intérêt

Fine art - live art, new media, participatory practice. Counselling. Queer theory. BDSM. Learning open source web design.

Also making lovely food (vegan & sugar free!), doing grassroots activism, reading (when I get time) - mostly feminist & anarchist theory and psychotherapy. Should read more history. I also volunteer for Rape Crisis, have been involved in organizing the Climate Camps here in UK, and done a bit of pro choice activism too.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Critical theory, philosophy, psychoanalysis/psychotherapy - and radical porn, for when I need a break :-)

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

The climate camp, Kingsnorth 2008 - hundreds of people converging in a field for a week of sustainable living and direct action against coal power, despite £6 million worth of police harassment and violence. Awesome!
