About me

Industry Non-Profit
Occupation Writers/Academics/Activists
Location Lexington, Kentucky, United States
Introduction Sprouted San Diego-CA. Interpellated through Midwest universities. Working the borderline South. Searching for viable alternatives. Interested in indymedia, revolutionary knowledge, radical art/music/fictions, food politics and resistance cultures. Dialogic seeks to give expression to the absurdity of monologic thinking. We celebrate the wondrous chaotic creativity of relational thinking, polylogical discourse, polyamorous sexuality and pantheistic belief. Dialogic is the revolution of the senses, freedom of expression, the virus that will eat the system from the inside out. Dialogic is a catalyzing enteran that seeks to alter the corrupt system through pirated words and frenzied responses. Dialogic operates in the margins of mutated meanings, seeking a new way of being, becoming, understanding and knowing. Dialogic is the monstrous result of a system that eats its young. We are the Multitude!!!
Interests Pet projects include: finding a viable alternative/oppositional culture to mainstream publishing/bookstores; challenging dominant discourses through constructed situations; absurd pataphysics; wandering aimlessly, life as performance, and writing all the time (its not a job!--its an obsession!)
Favorite Movies Movies that play with our perception of reality, that explore our sense of values, and question where we are heading as a culture/society. Also appreciate pictures/depictions of other ways of being and cultural perspectives.
Favorite Music Funk music: Funk them if they can't take a joke! Indie Music!!! DIY Culture! Anything that gets the body moving or sets the mind adrift/thinking. Noise!!!
