In the ancient saga of hero and beast, Perseus dared to face Medusa’s lethal gaze, a Gorgon so dire. With a swift stroke, he severed her head, the Demon Star Algol gleaming from the lifeless dread. A celestial tale of courage and fright, where heroism and stars align in the night, where freedom’s very essence is at stake in the fight.

Speaking truths incites silencers and hatred. Stand up or die cowardly ! Timelines are already shifted

If we normalize violence we are not humans,

We are animals

One of the pioneers in time-based media (video), Bill Viola, has passed away. His #artwork illuminated my path and inspired my work in countless ways. Each encounter with his work stirred me from within. The use of #metaphor and #technology held profound psychological significance for my personal journey. Many themes resonated deeply. Thank you ❤️

In 2001, I met him in NYC at the end of a lecture. The Metropolitan Museum had just acquired "The Quintet of Remembrance," the first representation of video art to enter the Museum's collection.

#BillViola was kind and humble during the brief meeting after his lecture, despite my nervousness from meeting one of my heroes. He was coherent with everything I had read about him, and what struck me was his kindness and genuine curiosity about the video piece I told him I was creating, which was a truly meaningful moment.

Today, I choose to innovate instead of propagate. A good inspiration is Benjamin Franklin’s embodiment as a polymath and champion of freedom.

Waking up from the delusion has never been this urgent; decades of ingrained propaganda have taken a toll. Humanity has yet to see the worst. It is not going to be fun. Courage or submission? The choice is yours.

I enjoyed this conversation between two based, unapologetic individuals, @saifedean and @RepThomasMassie, known for inspiring and educating for less statism and more financial freedom.

Can't wait for the next discussion between them on human action and why mathematical equations can’t solve the complexity of human behavior.

We are what we eat; we are made of the thoughts that we believe. #Discernment might be underestimated. At this crossroads, being mindful of all choices becomes not only a lifesaver but the foundation of times to come. Keep questioning everything and make sure that what you stand for is truly coming from your authentic and free self. The road is tricky but very possible #courage

Utopian buildings never constructed - I will be sharing some structures that did not make it into my new piece “Ouranos, Above Us Only Sky,” a 2-minute 5 LED screen animation at Grand Central Madison, which will be announced very soon. Stay tuned.

In today's world, the tale of "The Emperor's New Clothes" is more relevant than ever, as civilization contends with vanity, conformity, and the need for honest perspectives.

Social media perpetuates vanity through curated digital personas, while conformity stifles critical thinking and innovation, evident in echo chambers and partisan politics.

Yet, just as the child in the story revealed the emperor's folly, fresh, unfiltered perspectives—often from the young and uninhibited—can drive meaningful change.

As individuals can we cultivate a culture that values authenticity, encourages diverse opinions, and promotes the courage to speak the truth?
