I am an artist who loves his friends. I have been contributing in my own small way to Wikipedia since January 2005 and (hopefully) am still learning. I live in Los Angeles, California.

My interests evolve constantly and include, in no particular order:

• Families of choice (there needs to be a Wikipedia article on that subject)
• Poetry, especially jazz poetry
• Returning to a more Jesus-based model of Christianity
• The Episcopal church
• Dorothy Day and the Catholic Worker movement
• Civil rights for LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) humans
• Homosexuality and issues of sexual orientation
• Transgender people
• Meditation
• Yoga
• Acting in live theater
• Homelessness, particularly in Los Angeles Skid Row
• Performance art
• Developing an open source New Testament
• Imagining new ways to use the Internet, especially with mobile devices
• The Jesus movement of the 1970s
• Los Angeles history and culture
• Film title and key art design
• Noir films films and literature
• Beat generation literature
• The ideas of visionaries like Steve Jobs, Ram Dass and Sasha Shulgin
• The counterculture of the 1960s, and radicals like Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin
• Web programming with PHP, MySQL and Ajax (not Ajax)
• Altered and expanded states of consciousness
• Lucid dreams
• Geographic information systems (GIS) and cartography
• Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG)
