The advent of the interconnectedness and of the weapons of mass destruction means that, increasingly, I share a destiny with my enemy.

It has been nice to come back here and find so many active movements with which I share a common experience and desire for change.

If I were here playing cello, or playing on a synth, or sharing my music with you, I'd be able to show things about myself that I can't tell you in words, more personal things, perhaps deeper things.

And about three years ago, I started an exercise in openness and inclusiveness by reaching out into the open source software community to create new digital tools for magic tools that could eventually be shared with other artists to start them off further on in the process and to get them to the poetry faster.
