The following videos present mini lessons on the art of transformation, alchemy. For me, teaching is alchemical: we learn to work with what we know inherently and turn it into self-actualization. Learning about the old hermetic writings, as well as exploring sacred texts, I also learn about how we can move the stuff of our lives into the work of writing and moving forward.

Performance and Lectures

I saw a flock of birds totally fail at that murmuration thing this evening. Folks only photograph it when it works. These were the beginners. The masters appear over rowboats in Ireland.
