Intuition nut. Sidles right up to the unknowable, like it's a lion and I'm a fucking zoologist. Big plans, big plans.

Let's how bout, instead of trying to charm one another or evaluate one another on here... let's eye each other warily. Maybe back away baring our teeth and hissing. Be your animal self, is all.

We'll have time to be human later.

LIVE IN SF. VISITING NY AND BOS NEXT WEEK. EATING DUMPLINGS AND TYPING IN PALO ALTO RIGHT NOW.

In general:
* helping other people's best dreams come true
* discernment, econ, theater, and technology are my main tools.

People use words like: artist, technologist, playwright, researcher, activist, choreographer, cook. Someday I hope to graduate to "good all around guy".

making and sharing breakfast; discernment; waking up on a cliff; hot tubs; sending invitations; that riff from sweet child of mine

if I've got an agenda in social encounters and how to let go. the places where consumer culture might buckle. the sensations in fresh produce.

Oh yeah I made a list of Core Values and Beliefs (props to yanakarenina, whose profile led me to make that list and put it here).

Hey, I'm single but I don't so much like to go on dates with strangers. So I'd prefer, therefore, if you'd contact me with some subterfuge.

Perhaps your pet iguana has escaped. You have a scavhunt design you need help with. You need a tenor for your punk organum band. You don't know how to make a decent roux and the guests are coming.

Lie to my face.

I also have a slight preference for other social networks over this one. Find links to facebook, twitter, etc above.

If you find me interesting, I'd prefer you not write. If you find me strangely familiar, here are the places where you can message me: couchsurfing, facebook, AngelList, twitter
