I really don't know what is going to happen. I can't control it. I am an agent of change, but I am not the change. I can choose how to act, but forces greater than me govern what happens. This truth keeps me from worrying too much.

This angle on things may interest the strategically challenged (i.e. "consumers" and survivors of authoritarian abuse who want to make a clean break from controls on our collective alienation); my own interest is to use my art to inspire discussion along lines of visionary ways to respond, re-create, and design our lives as we'd like to live.

Some people can think of better ways to live. I have an easier time thinking of shittier ways to die. It can even be a fun contest.

Sometimes it helps to view life in terms of common denominators. Action vs observing - when to do each?
