CURRENT MISSION

To live life fully and generously and to play lots of music.

ABOUT ME

I am a writer and musician (see http://nyokai.com). I perform and teach traditional Japanese shakuhachi flute as well as keyboards and electronic music. I often work with modern dancers and butoh performers and have created a few videos as well as doing lots of live performances. I have studied Thai massage (which I am more than happy to share) and I practice yoga regularly. I have been to Burning Man twice and hope to get back there some time in the next few years. Politically, I am a life-long anarchist.

PHILOSOPHY

You could call me an atheist Buddhist.
