THE VERACITY PROJECT...

DIALECTIC- I'm a walking contradiction, allowing for the freedom of changing expression, of my mind.

About Me


the veracity project...Veracity: 1. Authenticity. 2. Devotion to the truth. 3. The power of conveying or perceiving truth.Art is the application of imaginative skill in the creation of aesthetic objects, environments or experiences that can be shared with others. We create a space and stand for the uncompromising expression of truth through art, allowing identities to be transformed into another's perception of life. Our artists present a unique rendition of reality based on their relationship with the world. They are harvesters of the mind, detanglers of the weeds, sifters in the seeds of human souls.the veracity project attempts to toss and turn you into an altered reality, the space between wake and dream, capturing nouns, giving form to verbs, discovering images mysteriously, allowing you to surrender the mind, intentionally knocking you into an unknown world.***Bringing together music, poetry, dance, film, visual art, the veracity project is committed to creating a self-sustaining community of artists from all modalities in the San Francisco Bay Area. We are seeking new talent. Please contact us through MySpace.
COLLABORATING WITH MY FRIEND SIRAJ...PHOTOGRAPHY & POETRY- His photography represents the world's raw elements... He's a Harvester of the mind, a detangler of weeds, a sifter in the seeds of people's souls...a comrade on a journey for truth-
As far as my poetry, if you're lookin for the type of stuff that will catch you, toss and turn you, that will swoop you into a space like the one in-between sleep and dream, that weird nonsense state of psycedelic fury-WELL...STAY TUNED!
I have a classic case of downright debauchery-Going through life manifesting my own reality. I'm a poet transitioning into the world of fiction-this has thrown me into a different reality of capturing nouns, verbs, discovering images mysteriously, surrendering my state of mind, my conscious condition humbly knocking me into the presence of an unknown world yet following, grasping, finding sight in sound, form in fluid, the intangible deafening, the dark becoming formless, below something becomes a brightness, the indefinable beyond imagination straining my words into a present state of being-living, and above all surviving as an artist in a world built on beauty and struggle. Prodigy is, at its essence, adaptability and persistent, positive obsession. Without persistence, what remains is an enthusiasm of the moment. Without adaptability, what remains may be channeled into destructive fanaticism. Without positive obsession, there is nothing at all. All that you touch you change. All that you change changes you. The only lasting truth is change. We are change, A fluid endeavor of life, The perfect shape shifters- Souls- a Metamophosis of ideas- Claim senses, We all become Unusually beautiful Pulsing flesh- Upon the embrace of life, Of each other, Be ready, prepare yourself for the gifts of life May sear unready fingers.Home | Browse | Search | Invite | Film | Mail | Blog | Favorites | Forum | Groups | Events | Videos | Music | Comedy | Classifieds

A message to be heard through received pounding notes, becoming a desirable nourishment-a way of feeding my soul, my intellect. I get so full of energy, a deepness in my chest while listening to music alone at home, that I sometimes feel because of lack of food that there is something else, a fullness with a depth of spirit with notes of a tune ready to swallow me whole-

LIVING

It is not the new that is desirable in itself, but something that is in the new, or that we think will bethere. What we require of the new is its own former strength, the opposite of lassitude. The m...

philosophical meandering-a scattering of words-

Is it right, then, to judge of action by the quantity of thought implied in it, any more than it would be to condemn a life of contemplation for being inactive? Or has not everything a source and pri...
