this pony: one of the most beautiful things


in case you have any spare money that you would like to give to a good cause, check out one of my personal favorites. www.bestfriends.org

the film will be playing on the sundance channel in July.

i feel a desire to perform closure even though it may be premature as there will probably be a few more updates. perhaps i am just feeling reflective. whatever and who cares.

"particles" cost a 160 grand and was made with soul but complete with its compromises. i learned a world about filmmaking from the experience (for all of the people who email me "should i make a movie?" the answer is "yes, fuck it, you only live once, do what you want: just do the prep work.") since making "particles", my own personal evolution has moved at an expediential rate. i have quite a bit going on and coming up but i am proud to say that i never put my work before my own development as a person and i hopefully never will. i hope to update you on my new projects (that is if i can stop writing poetry and staring at the stars that are really the ceiling for a moment). everything i wrote on the first page of this web site has disintegrated as i have recessed into my imaginary land that i call..."home, sweet home." i am working on the 75films site and it will soon be interactive and hopefully have guests and if we get it right, illustrate some of the confusion and beauty going on here on a moment to moment basis.

in any case, whoever is reading this (if you are interested) i have a few suggestions though dismiss what you want: (if you like bananas) check out looza's banana nectar juice (it taste like gerber baby food but better), check out al gore's film "an inconvenient truth" (even though i haven't seen it yet, it's an "of course"), check out being the best person you can be and leaving a positive mark on this planet, check out feeling the value in life, check out loving and being loved, and check out the truth; i've learned that though it sometimes hurts, it's usually beneficial.

as my father would say, "happy honolulu!"
even honolulu can appear depressing: http://www.honolulu.gov/cameras/waikiki_beach/waikiki.htm

p.s. check out my friend jen murphy's web site. a little short i made a while back is on there

it's winter!


i just back from la which is warm and warm. fun.
the remaining showtimes for "particles of truth" on the sundance channel are for the very peculiar and perhaps dodgy who are awake at either
Tuesday 12.13.05 at 06:15 AM or Thursday 12.29.05 at 08:35 AM --i don't trust people who watch movies at these times!!
the image is of timothy cummings the artist who finally picked up his paintings from the film. i was sad to let go of them however the one in the picture resides on my wall. right now i am adjusting to the year being over and listening to clap your hands say yeah! to help me do so.

boo!


just wanted to let you know that "particles of truth" will be playing on the sundance channel throughout december. "particles" seems so far in the past at this point. moving on is just the nature of developing as a person and i have made a lot of progress. so until i can entertain you with my new insides, check out http://www.sundancechannel.com/film/?ixFilmID=3578&rname=The+Film+Finder
hope whoever is reading this is finding some peace (even if you're an asshole).
