• Digital Dadaism (aka Phoneistan)

• Time Wave Zero

  

  Where did the last 24 months go? Poof. Forever Gone. Time itself has never been more keenly felt than these past two years.

• Let’s turn the page, shall we?

  

  A new world has spun all around us…spinning like a spider web. We’re all feeling spun. In less than a year’s time everything has changed. Were we complacent before – how good we had it? Yes. God put us on notice. So many pastimes are bygones. What’s in, What’s out?: In: Masks, Fear, Anxiety, Avoidance, […]

• Disconnections & Reconnections

  

  During this pandemic, reconnections have been made. Especially with those old past times which fell by the wayside. The simple things. Reconnecting with an old friend (and Lover) from a distant era. Hanging with a friend. Reconnecting with our families – sharing meaningful time and laughs together.
