Technology is continually a challenge. Art and music is a continual
challenge because we, as artists, are living filters to the world
around us. Worldly speaking, the latter part of this century has
indeed caused us to filter many different situations. We strive
to be original and unique, but recycling old concepts with new
techniques and emotions seem to fit well with recent trends. After
all, recycling is the basis of earth's life cycle.
I work in creative cycles. Sometimes I am totally into visual
communication and othertimes musical communication. Weaving between
different forms of media or disciplines offers inspiration. I
reflect in my own style, hopefully in positive light, the pure
and the impure, observations and experiences of my life.
I thrive on challenges and human interaction.
Computer technology offers a new medium for expression in this
decade. In a world filled with environmental stresses, the computer
offers a much cleaner alternative to a paper driven world. Computers
can have a tendency to feel inorganic and cold. This is true.
A healthy balance between natural, physical processes and technology
assisted processes is of utmost importance for us to maintain
balance.
My art is sometimes intellectual and othertimes emotional. Both
are needed to remain balanced.
The act of creativity. It is indeed one of the supreme satisfactions
and purposes of life. Creativity is the expression of the spirit
and soul. The process we go through to complete an idea to a presentable
form harbors a never ending learning environment. Through this
learning we can grow to a more thorough understanding of ourselves
individually, collectively, spiritually and physically. Look how
children create, learn and grow. We must not lose sight of this
purpose. I know I was born on this planet to learn and grow.
Art and music knows no cultural boundaries or restrictions. It
can cut through all of the tensions surrounding racial, social
and cultural differences. It can convey the positive or negative.
As I take the role of creative collaborator and artist throughout
the remainder of my time here on earth my goal is to create a
positive life experience and act as a catalyst to help other creative
people achieve their goals. If I am able to spark a light in the
hearts of my friends so they may experience a similar joy like
I have experienced in my creative travels, then all my efforts
are worth it.
And so it goes. Just do it.
