Documentary film, film theory, spoken word, poetry, bicycles, cats, political theory (AND THEORY IS NOTHING WHEN YOU DON'T ACT UPON IT)-and yes, this goes with pan-africanism , warm sweaters on a cold night, kombucha and how to make it, the piano, the drums, percussion in general, intergenerational living, cooking, the social implications of hair, the colours of beetles, walking to the supermarket, going in, staring and just walking out, rearranging lyrics... and it goes on... OK, RIGHT NOW I LOVE RIDING THE SCHWINN BICYCLE WHOSE NAME IS MANOLO, I LOVE VOLUNTEERING/ACTIVE-ISM, I LOVE EATING/COOKING, I LOVE SPENDING TIME WITH LUMBIA THE CAT, I LOVE SITTING DOWN WITH A BOOK, ONE-ON-ONE CONVERSATIONS, WORKING IN RADIO PRODUCTION, WRITING LETTERS (so full of love), WRITING POETRY, WALKING AROUND, CREATING MUSIC, DEEJAYING/MAKING MIXED TAPES AND CDs... THESE ARE THINGS I ABSOLUTELY LOVE DOING RIGHT NOW.
I'd like to meet:
The world! When I wake up I say "hello, me!" and I eat some food and go out into the world, and me meets other folks. I'm always learning from others. And then I can meet me again and sleep until the next day.
