I find it terribly ironic that we have in places, such as Second Life, virtual reality Buddhist temples, when in fact the whole point of Buddhism is to remove the individual from the trappings of mentally projected virtual realities—typically emanating, in the literature, from ‘self.’
This little film shows Tuesday's simulcast between the London and New York OCCUPY communities. I flew out to the encampment at St. Paul's Cathedral, and we sang the 99% song together, across the Atlantic - what a wonderful moment! That made the whole London visit worth it - when Londoners held up a sheet to show the Stop Shopping Choir from Wall Street.

I was thinking about the dodecahedron and the icosahedron, two platonic solids that are made of twelve pentagons and twenty equilateral triangles, respectively.

So twenty and twelve are really entwined in these solids.
A weekend camping trip turns psychedelic (and dangerous) for some of the boys in the band in the dramatic Season One finale of my indie web series Gemini Rising.
