A note on Britney Spears.
Does anyone else find it odd that one who adored for her body has committed acts against her body? That one, who since her late teens, has been gawked at, gazed upon, honored for her looks is trying to destroy them. The tattoos, the shaving, and the piece de resistance, piercing [...]
Being as how this is the post-modern, possibly post-humanist era, and things tend to get nicely redundant, I thought I could make my big “come-back” blog about another blog. And to cut through the crap, cause it’s getting late now anyway, it’s a blog about a blog about an American Idol Contestant’s “risque” photos.
I don’t [...]
I love dancing. Most of my friends are aware of my foot-moving passions, as it’s not on rare occasion that they will find me lunging my hips and pivoting my toes to the tunes of the “hardest working man in show business.” And for those of you who haven’t seen my mad-style and moves that [...]

Recently I have been considering the theories, ideas, and some writings that surround Artificial Intelligence and the replication of human-like consciousness outside of an actual human instantiation. Of course, when I say “Artificial Intelligence,” I’m not talking about some solid monolith of theory, or of even defining the word itself. In some schools of thought [...]
The Spiritual Disposition….or even PREdisposition….
Anxiety has no friends. Except maybe one. God. Allah. The Divine. Buddha maybe.
The illumination I receive in reflection of my own affliction is always striking and sometimes even awe-inspiring. Today, on the way to coffee, I started a moment of reflection on my past half-dozen years. I went from a church-going [...]

A letter to Eric:
Manifesto is right.
First, here is part of an email that I just sent to Amy this morning:
“I’ve got a lot of mixed feeling about the symposium, but I’ll sort it out
