- I am a terrific colorist . I love music of all sorts,listening and
composing and playing piano. I am working with Bincode.com,Jola Gora Witta on Hermitage Multimedia Project,
have exhibition in Dumbo and studio on Beaver St. I am also publishing
a book with Ogan Gurel. Go to http://www.Scribd.com/doc/8000852/Waves-Full Text-with-Amy-Cohen-Banker-Illu
I am an enthusiastic observer and participant in lots of art projects.
I love to work alone and with other people who are inspired in collaborations.
I also exhibited internationally in Beijing,China twice and in many shows
in Italy. Work was used by a Portugeuse gallery in last Olympics art show in China. I also showed at the World Monument's Fund Gallery on
27th Street this year. I like to present work that expands and promotes international
expression and peace and inner and social responsibilities and creativities. I wish we could all forgive and forget and help each other.
I think that art and music through multicultural multimedia fosters this
and I am kind of a formalist,modern artist who cares about masterpiece
past traditions and future edges and changes. I like to build on the best
of the past and to make treasure out of trash...seeing the objectivity of
low and high but only when it is of value in language,sound and visual
arts.

Holiday Poem:December 2008: Some Lyrics:Mammon2009 Thanksgiving
MAMMON-THANKSGIVING;2009
You have ripped my family asunder
Stole all peace with your thunder
The uninvited angst that you
have measured out towards
flesh and blood should not have
issued.
You have taken and destroyed and plundered
and provided mannon in disguise.
One child dead, the other prodigal, what example is that
for the third child and "new" wife?
How can you reconcile the past with the stormy present.
How can you be happy with blood on your hands?
To divorce a wife is common place.
But to divorce a daughter is a surprise.
Money does not buy happiness.
It should be accepted with gratitude.
Gratitude is generous when the doors are slammed shut.
I cry with the injuries of my children.
I have all I need.
I have all I want
I have romance
Home and hearth and harmony
I have food and friends
But how about
Universal Love
In a heartbeat
I can recognize
the power of
Universal Love.
Can we channel faith
and global cheer
at this time of year.
We need to care and not
to compare
our neighbors' goods
or intelligence
as we can all be stronger
if we help each other
now and then with
harmony and love
the Music and the art is our usual muse
in these special times
So let's take it from there
and Open the Door for all today with a group kiss.
Our love is recognized without borders or fences, private roads,passages
Prophetic Messages for local and international people in all nations.
I have all I need, and all I want except for this.

January 28,2009, Comments on MUSIC
Now, what is music? This question occupied me for hours before I fell asleep last night. Music is a strange
thing. I would almost say it is a miracle. For it stands Halfway between thought and phenomenon,between spirit and
matter,a sort of nebulous mediator,like and unlike each of the things it mediates,spirit that requires manifestation in time and matter that can do with out space.
We do not know what music is.
