“This master has only two eyes, two hands, one body, and nothing more than the least of the inhabitants of our countless cities.

Not from Here
Check out my novel Not from Here. It’s the story of a young musician, Anton, who wants to change the world with his music. It’s also the story of his unbreakable friendship with his alter-ego Timmins, a reclusive artist whose paintings come true. And it’s the story of his discovery of a plot by shadowy forces that are manipulating society on every level.

Gandhi vs. the State

The Artist-Squatters of Paris
It is my pleasure to announce a show of photos documenting the artistic squats of Paris, where I spent most of my time from September 1991–October 1992. The show is at Firestorm Cafe & Books, an anarchist collective in Asheville, North Carolina.
