About
I enjoy helping people to learn more about saving money
on energy, food, and transportation while improving the
quality of services they use. Participation is key, as is
art. having a forward and backward vision allows us
to keep our hearts connected to the wisdom of the past,
while making use of tools that come from the modern
expression of technology. The blinding light of progress
makes it so that we can feel that we are in a white out snow
storm, and it is sometimes difficult when one willingly
goes along with an idealistic plan to save the world by
selling widgets, but in the end, its still widgets.
Relocalizing is important in that widgets may come from
local places and utilize amazing things from your local area.
I value the ingenuity that some people have developed and
are developing in redefining how we approach progress. Without
this kind of total rewrite, we are all bound to box ourselves into
widget shops and suffer of boredom and widget overload while
pushing the margins selling ever better widgets to an ever dwindling
market that shares only our common desire to come home from
the widget vending job, and kick back on the couch, while the
house gets heated from the sun, as we put back together the
broken puzzle pieces of a dream of a better widget, which had turned
into a nightmare (mzuka fuul) of lead soaked childrens toys dumbing
down even further an anesthetized generation of playbot militatry ipods
with comparative scores and role playing that translates perfectly
to the battlefield of our freewill opposing the puppetmaking machines,
that our political sphere has come to represent.
May we all find a way to restore what the heart calls us back to, and may
warm bright sunlight communicate directly to us without fear of malignant
reprisal.
