oh BOY. I've loved this house in Camden foreevverrrr. I can't tell you how often I've fantasised about its interior as I go past it. It's such a rare beauty. A little bit of Kyoto or Santa Cruz in London

I don't often get house envy, but *damn*.

Very strong, mixed feelings learning that Fabrica (finally) closed at the end of December.

So few places like this have ever existed, and I feel a well of gratitude to that place and the people I got to work and play with.

Life was genuinely never the same after.

People often ask me when I got interested in death.

It’s complicated. If only there was an early experience that shaped me.

My latest Substack explores how walking ancient pilgrim routes can teach us about time, meaning, and our place in the longer human story.

Joseph Campbell sure does know how to line em up.

From 1988, talking Star Wars and the Empire as state power through machines through to the genesis of Computers-as-Gods.

Working with mortality is about unblocking one of the biggest psychic barriers to living fully.

The pursuit of creating living structure means acknowledging the nature of decay and death, and working with that compost as a living material in itself.

For when you are put in the Total Perspective Vortex, you are given just one, momentary glimpse of the size of the entire unimaginable infinity of creation along with a tiny little marker saying, “You are here”.

You are here:

This plus Kurt Vonneguts ‘story shapes’ is a mean double team!
