A Painter needs only a paintbrush and a canvas; a musician needs only two turntables and a microphone! Yet to be a filmmaker it seems thousands of dollars are needed to make something that nobody is going to see anyway or to be an actor you must wait for someone else to give you exposure. If you're one of those people waiting around for financing to come through so you can make or star in Citizen Kane II that's cool, I'm not. This organization is for people who have stories to tell and opinion …

This is mostly just a way to provide a comfortable environment for writing that's not so lonely. You can write whatever you wish, of course, but there will be writi …

We go to exhibits and concerts at museums and unusual venues in the city, some famous, like the Metropolitan Museum, and others a little more off the beaten track, like t …

All of us are spiritual. Yes, it's true: We were all born with this innate gift. We are spiritual even when we think are not being spiritual. Because spirituality is life and life is spiritual. Sometimes you feel the gifts, and sometimes you feel the work that should be done. So what is the ultimate goal of spirituality? It is to be blissfully happy and healthy as our unique selves. It is to become conscious and consciousness. It is to live in balance: where ever we live, who ever we are and in …

New York is the place to be, especially these days, if you are involved in the tech industry (bay area? what bay area?). It is also an excellent place to go out and meet people, get inspired, and start something great.

So, if you are excited to change the wor …
