Kashpoint Performance 2004
For some people these would be the kind of images that might come back to haunt. But I love them! They are from 2004 and my friend Kabir, just posted them on Facebook.
Note my disco-ball shoes in the first picture. I made them specially for the performance which took place at Kashpoint.
Here's a close-up of the shoes! Click to see them up close....

The Centre for Multidox Theories
"Oh, if only it were possible to find understanding," Joseph exclaimed. "If only there were a dogma to believe in. Everything is contradictory, everything tangential; there are no certainties anywhere. Everything can be interpreted one way and then again interpreted in the opposite sense. The whole of world history can be explained as development and progress and can also be seen as nothing but decadence and meaninglessness. Isn't there any truth? Is there no real and valid doctrine?"
The master had never heard him speak so fervently. He walked on in silence for a little, then said: "There is truth, my boy. But the doctrine you desire, absolute, perfect dogma that alone provides wisdom, does not exist. Nor should you long for a perfect doctrine, my friend. Rather, you should long for the perfection of yourself. The diety is within you, not in ideas and books. Truth is lived, not taught. Be prepared for conflicts, Joseph Knecht - I can see that they already have begun."
-Hermann Hesse, The Glass Bead Game.
