-Since 2003 I have been channeling a script, which I felt was musical, but since I do not play any instruments I wasn't quite sure how to decipher it. The script energy began asking to be placed on my body, where invisible energetic lines exist are drawn out. I began doing this 'conscious body art' on myself, as well as therapeutically for others with positive results.
In 2007 Bay Area musician and producer Anahata Pace saw this script and was able to vocalize it (imagine dolphins making love in space). I began to compose linear arrangements for her, and continued to work on healing body glyphs for those I cross paths with [which I have also learned to tattoo permanently on the body due to the volume of requests]. During the opening of my 2010 JAPA show at Triple Base, Anahata sung a 13 foot scroll I composed for her while I was in India.
I call this group of 13 compositions '4th dimensional' because, instead of progressing like a typical linear musical score, the whole song is seen at once. I look forward to one day doing a concept album with Anahata.
here are a selection of pieces from the show (gouache on paper)
*Behold the spiral of time, growth patterns of thought and action temporarily existing as art, to share and contemplate*

The last word....
The sketch/notebook I started in India on 2/10/10 was just completed on 10/10/10 at the 13 Crystal Skull event in NYC. As an artist, I always appreciate peeks into other's creative process, so I decided to share with you some pages that contain doodles, concepts, and sketches from my life over the past 8 months...

NY is great for inspiration...
but suffocating in terms of space...
I felt the urge to paint my cosmic glyph caligraphy large, but with no studio I headed to central park last week with some house paint and a pink Italian sports newspaper and used an amazing amphitheatre as my nomadic NY studio. Met a really sweet man when I was done who was just there to blow big bubbles all day to touch the hearts of kids. If anyone has been following my art, I went thru a whole phase dealing with spheres/bubbles, so it was a wink from the universe to have this guy show up when I was done. Ouroboros style....
