For decades, I've meticulously documented my personal history as an artist. The digital tapestry I've woven is a complex mosaic of my mind, capturing the essence of my rants, monologues, and soliloquies. This intricate web of digital DNA serves as the canvas upon which I layer the constant influx of new stories to form a unique perspective as a raconteur. This metacognitive discipline was formed decades ago but became more prominent out of the need to repair my mind. As a former stand-up comedian and Creative Director, this artistic process has now merged with other influences, and it allows me to riff and improvise as I edit and create vlogumentaries (vlogs with a documentary style), infusing my perspective of the world and imbuing my digital creations with echoes of the iconography of my Shakespearean journey.

Join me as I ride and rant through the majestic city that built America.

As one of the country’s best-kept secrets, Detroit isn’t overly touristy, so you get the joy of exploring without crazy crowds. Some of the city’s best elements are its architectural history, Motown music, thriving sports scene, art culture, and excellent selection of restaurants, craft breweries, and cocktail bars. Canada is just across the beautiful Detroit river, so make the most out of your trip and visit two countries in one go!

Detroit has also been named among the top 10 best travel destinations in the world for 2023

Over the last decade, I've developed a metacognitive artistic process, crafting digital mind files documenting my journey. This digital one-man show displays a puzzle of the iconography of my existence. With each new iteration of digital graffiti, I create, I catalog and rebuild my mind from the shattered pieces of a deprecated code, remnants left from the shadows of a previous existence.

As the specter of old age looms, gradually casting its shadow over the present moment, the pursuit becomes imperative and centers on crafting a process that keeps the mind immersed in a symphony of thought and creation. This goal extends beyond the realm of artists; it is a universal aspiration for every human navigating the journey through the later years of life. Whether through the medium of diaries or the engagement in puzzle games, we all embark on a personalized buffet of processes, all converging toward the common outcome: maintaining a conducive fluidity of the mind as we gracefully enter our senior years.

Throughout the passage of decades, I have intricately woven together the threads of my origin tale and life's trajectory, fashioning a digital puzzle that embodies the iconography of my unique journey. With each passing day, I embark on a profound exploration, meticulously rearranging the fragments of my digital mind and experiences, sculpting them into new compositions that serve as an ever-evolving exhibition of my innermost thoughts and reflections—a vivid portrayal of my life's odyssey. It is a cacophony of music, prose, and storytelling that reimagines my life’s journey in digital storyboards.

The panels and videos I present encapsulate the world of artistry that has consumed my life. Through original content and curated pieces From the gristmill of our shared experiences, my storyboards represent my character and creativity as a creator and also are a cognitive dance of healing for my mind as the years keep marching towards the final curtain call.

Welcome to MY MIND. I create memories that define my legacy as we dance together as a species on the precipice of THE LAST ZEITGEIST.

Your art is more than a mere creative pursuit; it's intricately woven into the fabric of your life, intertwining with your very essence.

Life itself, in all its diverse experiences and emotions, serves as a canvas for the masterpieces you craft. The act of creating isn't just an isolated endeavor; it's a reflection of your inner world, a tangible expression of your thoughts, feelings, and perceptions. As you channel your creative energy into your work, you're also channeling the essence of your being, transmuting it into forms that resonate with the world around you.

Amid the tumultuous currents of existence, your art becomes a sanctuary—a realm where your mind finds solace and balance. The act of creation is akin to a meditative journey, a path that leads to the serene shores of equanimity. Through the very process of self-reflection that art demands, you navigate the labyrinthine corridors of your thoughts, seeking understanding and embracing the intricacies of your own mind. This introspective voyage becomes a powerful source of healing and growth, guiding you towards a state of equilibrium amidst the ever-changing tides of life. As you immerse yourself in the creative flow, you uncover not only the beauty of your art but also the profound beauty of self-discovery and transformation.

The realm of the human mind, it's always been a labyrinthine of deep fascination for me, an intricate dance between the labels we affix compared to who we really are.

Is there a tangible disparity, I wonder, between being dubbed 'crazy', 'insane', or any of the many kaleidoscope of variations that humans like to affix to many creative artist? These terms hold a peculiar power over the human psyche. They can both liberate and constrain, becoming the palette upon which one's self-image is painted. It leads me to ponder the delicate dance between the mind's eccentricities and society's constructs, each influencing the other in an intricate symbiosis. Does one tread a divergent path in the labyrinth of the mind when labeled as such, and do these designations ultimately converge in their impact on an individual's perception of self?

Does the constant entwining someone's thoughts, creations, and essence with the refrain of 'crazy' - does this summon an unintended metamorphosis, where the bestowed monikers gradually amalgamate with their very identity?

It's a curious terrain to navigate and is one that I understand intimately. You see I am one of those individuals who lost control of his mind, and had to rebuild a new path, a new understanding of myself in order to pull myself back up out of that rabbit hole � of despair.

Did I lose control over my noodle because of the propagandized nature of archetypes orbiting my existence, or was the disturbance in the force a product of my already damage brain.

Nature or Nurture? A conundrum for the ages.

Having traversed the tumultuous waters of a world determined to confine me with their rigid rules and preconceived notions, I stand here today not as a victim, but as a survivor. The path has been marked by relentless trials, a labyrinth of doubt and uncertainty. Yet, it was within this crucible of adversity that I unearthed the unvarnished essence of my being, my authentic self, and the resonating cadence of my voice. Dispelling any notions of the propagandized statement that crazy is born not bred.

In the crucible of life’s trials, those once-dreaded labels have now metamorphosed into something extraordinary. They’ve ceased to be chains and now stand tall as crowns, jeweled with the stories of resilience and triumph. Every mark, once whispered in shadows of supposed fragility, now roars with the resonance of unbreakable fortitude coursing through my very being.

Through this profound transformation, I stand tall, a living testament to the alchemical power of human spirit. No longer bound by the weight of judgment, but buoyed by the majesty of self-discovery. I wear these labels with a fierce pride, for they are the echoes of a past that shaped me, the rallying cries of a future yet to be written. They are not just labels; they are the exalted relics of a soul forged in the crucible of life’s trials.
