I’m a dot collector.  Been actively collecting dots since toddlerville. The collecting is fun but the most fun is connecting them. That’s when I make stuff. This website is a trunk full of that stuff.  Each dot is a zone built on sensual contact and book learnin’. Mostly driven by accidental curiosity and a prefrontal cortex that’s often on vacation. That’s OK – leaves more room up there for dots: politics, African polyrhythm in all forms, baseball, jazz, history, abstract art & poetry, psychology, 1930s Appalachian music, surrealist art & dada, blues, evolutionary biology, avant-gardism, Norman Rockwell, cylinder recordings, activism, free jazz, media, design, Country music, Japanese Gagaku, ragas, flamenco, journalism, prog rock, odd time signatures, anthropology & belief systems, weird movies and lots of et cetera. Those dots, and so many others, wander, network and mate in unexpected ways that are funny, profound, ridiculous, rational; like apple / pi / iTunes.  Or Donald Trump / president / believe me. Or Polarity / 1.
