_______________________________

To ride the unbalance* between:
1. excellence and a kind, singular and porous identity that contains some of the scruples, humor, humility, musicality & the beauty of a harsh and confusing, yet benign and rich reality – away from distractions.

3. Perceive the arrogance of normalcy: everybody, in one way or another, is handicapped… which brings us back to 1.
