The Garden of Forked Tongues,  an ongoing experiment presented as a live / mixed media performance piece. has been presented in excerpts and iterations by the Operating Theater at locations such as: Little Theater at Dixon Place, Catch Series #26 & #34 and at Teatro IATI.

The Garden of Forked Tongues is made possible: by Lower Manhattan Cultural Council’s Swing Space program, which was created with lead support from the September 11th Fund;  Project space donated by Capstone Equities, and from contributions by patrons of the Operating Theater, like you.

This project began as a way of investigating reality through metaphor. As an artist, I am creating a living / recorded performance piece that examines the nature of reality. Of particular interest to me are the ideas of parallel universes, free will, purpose and truth. This blog is meant to be a repository for thoughts and ideas related to the subject… Who am I? Why am I here? What is going to happen to me tomorrow?

I am not a scientist or an expert. I am merely a curious enthusiast. The more that I know, the more I am confused. (This is natural. I don’t confuse nature with goodness; nature has it’s own agenda.) But I do believe that within the paradox of our existence is a niche which provides us purpose. We are on a rung of a double helix ladder to infinity. What a strange and wonderful place to be in.
