PLEASE DISTRIBUTE OR MODIFY IN WHATEVER MANNER YOU WISH America, you're in a fine pickle. You adorn your tailgates with "Support Our Troops" magnets. But America, that also makes you mad. Do you know where you're coming from? Christo will help you look at Central Park with The Gates. On his website, he calls The Gates "a democratic expression that Olmsted invoked when he conceived a '

There is little time for explanation. On Saturday, February 12, you are invited to temporarily vandalize The Gates, by Christo and Jeanne Claude. The Gates do not make sense. But Christo and Jeanne Claude have $20 million that says it doesn't matter, including a $3 million donation to the city (more here). Besides, The Gates will be wonderful. Our country is now full of magnetic ribbons,

A man hails me on the street. I say hello. He says, "What're you doing up here." "I live just down the street." "You should be down in the East Village. Ain't nobody up here but niggers, crackheads and prostitutes." "I like it here," say I, "You know Clinton's up here too." "Yeah. Nothing we can do about that."

Some will claim that it was not a Year of Chaos that preceeded it. Some because they feel my life remained all in all pretty tame. Others because they feel that I should not call August 2003 - October 2004 a "year." Be that as it may, I'm now on a lease keeping me in Manhattan until exactly one year hence. Which, I feel, is cause for celebration. So do please come: 11 December 2004 A

[UPDATE - Tom just measured the hallway. It is 11 fathoms long. (How long?)] So here I am, sitting in apartment 5C of 1845 Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. Blvd. It is unique in many ways. It is, for one, the largest apartment I have ever seen in Manhattan. But as far as uniqueness goes, it pales in comparison to the radical faerie houses, anarcho-syndicalist squat spaces, indian reservations

That night I found myself in the bed of another woman, and she is happy to have me back when I need a place to stay. My life continues to mirror yours. But the world is a good friend to me. She was nurturing and kind, not demanding and expectant. I needed this. Even in my world, I felt fragile. The demands placed upon your strength... they are certainly beyond my power.

I haven't gotten any of the jobs that held promise. The jobs I've had have cost more than they've paid. My releations with women have beenan exploration of the many varieties of folly. And, worst of all, I am continually beset by technical difficulties. Thus provisioned, I'm packing into my old Buick LeSabre, and heading to New York to Make it Big in the Big Apple. Which I've got to say is

So, I'm back now, and I've had many adventures. You can read about some of them on this other fine blog. I've gotten way tricked out with the israeli kung fu and am now certified to teach courses on stuff you've probably never considered doing. Like standing up with less effort. But the main thing for now is that I'm looking for a job. I have both a tech resume and an artsy visionary resume.

When you dial 443-451-2677, your call will be transferred via highly trained gnomes to The Internet. And from now on, I'll try to keep The Internet up to date on how to find me.

1 May 2004 Am I doing alright? Two nights ago, after rocking out with Vince, I got a ride to the DC Metro stop with our lead guitarist. The last downtown train apparently leaves college park a little after 11:30pm. Unfortunately for our hero, it was already after midnight. And my ride was long gone by the time we had come to this point of realization in the story. So, I resolved to get back

So it's been 24 days since I didn't get a job and I told you all about it. Then I said I'd be writing more. Well, I guess I shouldn't have promised that. A great deal has happened since then. After wallowing around for a few days, the DC Congress of Jugglers came around. And I'm still a spiff enough juggler to be happy with myself. Although I'm certainly not as awesome as this guy, I can

Winter, 2003 Cambridge, MA During some work for the Lowell House Opera, I lost one of my gloves. I'd say that I was actually more upset that the gloves had been rendered useless in their separation. The fact that I couldn't use them anymore was only a secondary annoyance. But then one day when I was buying a spare change newspaper, I saw that the guy was wearing only one glove. My glove. I

It's amazing what a difference five minutes can make. I had the perfect job lined up, I was riding high. Then I went to talk to Dr. Hendler, my soon-to-be employer about it, and it turns out he's got $400,000 locked up in some kind of beaurocratic snafu. One of the many side-effects of this state of affairs is that there is no money to hire a programmer for the lab. I would have expected to

Eventually I'll have a sytem that let's me integrate portions of my correspondence seamlessly into my public presence, but for now it's command-C, command-V! Now I know and I'm ready to go.

First off, let me just say that I had to leave at the butt crack of dawn from San Francisco. Now, I suppose I could have gotten up 1.5 hours earlier to ensure that I had time to wait around for the dryer to finish and make the bed again. But I just couldn't manage. Please don't let this negatively affect your decision as to whether or not I should be allowed to come stay with you some day,

Dav got back to North America from his travels sometime around the end of February/beginning of March, and he stayed at my place in San Francisco for a few days.

Susan Orlean, author of "The Orchid Theif" (which was made into per haps the most post-modern movie of all times - Adaptation) has written about the setting for this entry. She goes on in her rambling way that makes me think, "Hell, I could be a staff writer for The New Yorker." But when, 13 hours later, I've almost made it to the bottom of her article, I realize that I probably don't have her

You know the type, where the Hindus go into a trance and stick large hooks and steel rods through their bodies and they don't bleed or feel pain. Oh, and I got there at 4am, expecting to camp out and wait for it to start -

But, I am on a permaculture farm run by a yoga guru. Her partner is a baker/auto mechanic/salvage carpenter. They have a fleet of Ford Fairlanes which have been largely converted to CNG.

15 Dec 2003 Melborne, Oz So, I've been in Oz for a while now. And boy is it expensive. Luckily, today I drop out of society and hang out with the hippies on the farms. But, some interesting things. For one, both Sydney and Melborne have public, sanctioned graffiti. This is a cool thing. The other thing is that Saddam took up the whole front page of everything and all the broadcasts and so

17 Nov 2003 Lamai Beach, Koh Samui, Thailand So I'm sitting in this sort of outdoor bar. There were two girls there, and this being the off season, they both cozy up to me when I sit down. The more aggresive one, who seems to have better english skills, sits next to me. She adopts what is apparently the standard position which is to sort of wrap her arms around mine so that I could easily

16 Nov 2003 OK - so it's way too hard for me to even come close to documenting my trip at this point. I'm going to try to keep up on it on my laptop and then get the juiciest bits on-line for now. I'm working on an idea for a big interleaved biography/fiction that I'll maybe never get up and running on the web. But I might. So, Bangkok. Met some more cool people there. Danced with some

8 Nov 2003 Wow. Yesterday I had one of those moments walking down the street. I just looked around at all these happy friendly people and said, "The Thai People really do have it All Figured Out." Shortly thereafter, I was sitting with my feet hanging over a canal and eating a bag of fried vegetarian stuff. Great meal for 20 Bhat, or about .50 USD. Meals are available for 10 Bhat though...

21 October, 2003 This is still the same writing session, but it's after midnight now... So after the party Sawyer, Nanka and I went up to Humboldt again. We left Nanka off on the highway to hitch the rest of the way from Redwood to Arcata and set off to Petrolia. So we took care of some house business, I got my therm-a-rest back, we mixed some dextrose into the 200-gallon basin of wine. Then

October 15, 2003 Well, as you might imagine from the fact that I haven't written anything in 10 days, a lot has happened since the last entry. I actually did an audio journal entry on minidisc, but you'll probably never get to hear that. So, I'll recap that as well. I drove down to Humboldt County, CA. Humboldt is basically my idea of paradise, except that housing prices are really high. So

October 5, 2003 So I talked to a bunch of people today. I felt a need to reach out because I was confused. I had lost focus. According to at least one source, my writing is cryptic and difficult to penetrate. Sucks for you. Seriously though, it would be awesome if people were a bit more interactive with me on this journal thing. I mean, you're obviously reading this - receiving all kinds

October 2, 2003 So Seattle's been good to me. Sure, I've had some stuff sitting outside John's house in a bag for days now, but that's not Seattle's fault. Seattle has in fact been providing me with valuable life lessons. Yesterday evening, I planned to meet my brother, Derek, for dinner. He's reporting to Seattle to go out on some NSA-run nuclear sub doo-dad. Yeah. So, of course, he

September 28, 2003 I was in Washington State, heading down 90. It was right at that time of the day when the sun is a blazing ball of nuclear fire bearing down with all of its might on those foolish enough to be trying to drive west at the time. Like me. So I guess it's no suprise that I missed my turn off (or rather failed to miss the wrong turn off) in Spokane. So I lost time, I was Tired

September 24, 2003 This will be short because I just typed in the hand written entry from 9/18. In short, I did Clearfork. It was a pretty awesome time, and a great example of What I'm Talking About. A lot of driving, sure, but awesome. It was good to see Danielle again and meet more of her friends and family. There was some rockin' good music and nature to be had. Highlights included: -

September 18, 2003 Monday night, Stig convinced me to go on a trip north with him. I had been standing outside of the Castro (a movie theater in the Castro (a region of San Francisco around the Castro (a street))). We had in fact been talking about doing this fora while, but I had come a hairs bredth from seeing the Animators' Festival - put on by Mike Judge and Don Hertzfeld, who combined

September 13, 2003 Finally achieved the point today where I had competing social engagements. One of them was to help Elaine (the chellist from last night's bonfire) move into their new home. Lucky for me, she ended up having that one under control. So, I ended up joining a merry foursome to go to a members-only event at the Yerba Buena. It was a talk/demo of some modern music centered

September 12, 2003 Yesterday was The Berkeley Juggling Club, which was a better experience than expected. Cool kids and there's a solid contingent of badass club-passers. Some of 'em into some good sustainable livin'. All of 'em have a generally great attitude. They were certainly patient with me trying to get in on patterns that were too much for my little juggling impoverished mind (I

Sept 10, 2003 So it's been a week now back in civilization and I'm still struggling to get things down in words. It's easy for me to get distracted - especially since the writing process is so slow, and there are so many other interests to distract me. I've spent the past few days with some technological visionaries - Stig Hackvan and Ben. Also present was Delphine (which is probably spelled

It's hard to know where to begin. I'm still very tired, even though I've been doing little more than rest and take care of basic daily existence stuff for two days. But I've finally recovered enough to try to put some of these experiences and thoughts in order. Like as not, I'll go back and revise this later. And do bear in mind that sometimes I don't remember things clearly. When this

NEWS - Where am I going? So, the real estate thing is wrapping up. I've learned what was there for me to learn. And now I've found myself essentially untethered for the first time ever. So I'm leaving for a while. The itinerary includes a cross-country road trip to Burning Man, a tour of the Pacific Northwest and potentially trips to Australia and/or Southeast Asia to study permaculture and

NEWS - Where have I been? Well, I'm still doing the real estate thing. But I'm gearing up for some of the most ambitious projects yet. Hopefully I'll find a better way of publicizing them in the future than some lame website. In the immediate term, I've been networking about stabilizing arts communities via creating spaces for them. If you are interested in this, please contact me. My

That's right, this Sunday at eLeven fifty-nine in the morning, we'll have Brunch, er I mean Dim Sum at Emperor's Garden. The reason I chose this restaurant is because it's huge.

Next thing on the horizon is an event at the Oni on Valentine's day - "What went wrong?" There will be music, readings and the closing of the Wall of Ex's. I'll be offering a public explanation of why I'm so messed up. Well

NEWS (sorta) So, it turns out that people showed up at my house for brunch on Sunday, even though it wasn't there. Please note that there are now events both in Boston and in San Francisco being advertized here. You can tell if it's a San Francisco brunch by the tell-tale 'SF' before the brunch. The Boston brunches will be marked with an equally inscrutable 'Boston' modifier. You have been

An eCult celebrant from way back in the early days (this past summer), she has now taken Ritual Brunch to San Francisco. If I'm John the Baptist, then Meredith is my Jesus. Or maybe I'm Jesus and she's Peter or someone like that. In any case, one of us is definately Jesus. Metaphorically, I mean.

So, since I'm lazy, I'm doing this on blogger for now instead of creating a real web site. Maybe one day, this will get consumed by a larger project. One can only hope. For the time being, I will use this site to: 1) Proselytize 2) Organize "powered by eCult" events 3) Disseminate noteworthy news And yes, I am being purposefully misleading. It's good for you.
