About five years ago I made a boom mic with a hidden eyeball, with tigger in the XLR, intended to open and look around while a very high profile person was giving a speech. Worked with

I still do my work, but I use different voices. Zardulu and these other personas are reflections of lost parts of myself, or parts of me that never had an opportunity to exist. Really, they are the real me and how I present myself in my day to day life is the hoax

He had made the discovery, and I watched in horror for the next six years. To use the previous analogy, I imagine I felt like Marie Curie would have felt if she saw the nuclear bomb being dropped, not to suggest that I share a sliver of her significance.

I always saw the absence of myth, and the potential to fill that need, as an incredibly powerful opportunity. I often compared it to nuclear power, it could used for great good or great evil. Around the same time I watched Trump begin to emerge.

While my work is best described as an artistic reflection of the post-truth era, I’m ready for that era to end. Vote.

And the huge dragon was cast down and out, that age-old serpent, who is called the Devil and Satan, he who is the seducer and deceiver of all humanity the world over; he was forced out and down to the earth, and his angels were flung out along with him - Revelation 12:9

The gods are revealed in the archetypal nature of sacred imagery, but we cannot mistake these images for the gods themselves. Their names and faces are discarded quite often, while their true form, spiritual energy that gives them their power, is both eternal and invisible

I made my song a coat covered with embroideries out of old mythologies from heel to throat; but the fools caught it, wore it in the world’s eyes  as though they’d wrought it. Song, let them take it for there’s more enterprise in walking naked -Yeats

When a sacred form ceases to enliven us, it’s structure dies as a source of the divine and we are left with it’s lifeless carcass to admire as a work of art

A trickster has only a few paths to choose from: come inside the boundaries of civilization, leave them entirely or, like the coyote, refuse to resolve the storyline entirely

What is necessary, after all, is only this: solitude, vast inner solitude. To walk inside yourself and meet no one for hours — that is what you must be able to attain -Rilke

The authorship of myths must go unclaimed, as such a claim tethers them to reality, where they would otherwise be free to float endlessly through all time
