On the Road

To all my loyal followers (haha),

My ultimate plans for the summer have taken on a dramatic and dynamic transformation in these past few weeks.  Due a series of both unfortunate and fortunate events it appears that this reporter/journalist/wanderer is now taking up the opportunity to finally embrace that which he has been yearning for.  The road beckons as it always has.  Yet, at this moment I have at last accepted such an invitation to see, to listen, to hear, to suffer, and understand a few strands of the ancient ground that has long since felt our footprints.
I'll be sending dispatches of my encounters, wanderings, ramblings, gatherings, and illuminations (or attempts at such) as they present themselves before me.  Should you find me quite early one morning beneath a tree; on the banks of the river; turning beneath the green canopy; or huddled beside a small fire in the dark sanctity of the night I would very much enjoy such company beneath the windings of the wind; the west moon; and story-singing sea.
Best,
Dylan

A time it was and what a time it was it was...

And here are some images of an extraordinarily talented artist and very dear friend of mine. We had a great time just hanging out in her studio for an afternoon full of music and conversation. Could an artist really want much more than that at the end of the day? Click to enlarge.

You Say You Want a Revolution...

Here are some images of a rally and march in New York against the occupation of Palestine, Gaza, and Afghanistan. I would've gotten a few more of the crowd but there were a lot of them... and they were all around me... and I'm short.

Best,

Dylan

Speaking Truth to Power

Hello Everyone, Here are a couple of images from the Healthcare is a Human Right campaign that I've been involved in recently. These photos in particular are from a series of testimonies before the State Senate Committee on Healthcare Reform.

:) Never at rest,

When Artists Attack

Here are some images from a masquerade part that I attended over the weekend. Although there were many colorful masks and costumes flitting about I was most entranced by the artists who were painting in one corner of the dance floor. They painted with such intensity, vitality, and elegance that they began to remind me of bullfighters or magicians.
