Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I would like to figure out what Kansas City is all about
ABOUT ME
Well, I'm currently based out of Montreal, Canada. I have a strong penchant for good bourbon which is hard to find in the province of Quebec. I think a lot about animals, specifically baboons and elephants of late. I'm addicted to Radiolab and sometimes This American Life. Sometimes I say pretentious things and then laugh at myself. I am a more complete person because I have read the work of Pablo Neruda, Richard Brautigan, Hemingway and David Foster Wallace. I believe I am a better person because I have studied the work of great philosophers.
I really have a bad addiction to thrift store shopping. It's a good thing I keep moving cities or my wardrobe would really get out of control.
PHILOSOPHY
I'll paraphrase choreographer Merce Cunningham and philosopher Maxine
Sheets-Johnstone:
Now is the moment - the fleeting moment - when you feel alive. Live it utterly as it fills with the pregnancy of Being.
