That's often been true, since the first people looked one another in the eye and started to move around. And by god, it will be true, reliably. But it is requisite of higher heights of the human spirit to move, even just in us, that we acknowledge that things are more interesting than they have ever been before. Much has been learned, and in our delvings and endeavors, our increasing ability to reach our understanding around greater senses, perspectives, and comprehensions, our capacity for application and conscious participation extends. Thanks in large part to this picture-making apparatus, I've gotten around a bit, hunted and been found unawares by reckonings with eras passed, and caught onto some things that have felt like fierce and hopeful angles at progress from the present tense. I'm still new, and endeavoring steadily to try to balance reverence for the two as harmonies in this human frequency. It's been interesting. I've been in some very, very good company, and the rest has been educational. As I hope you can see, I've been moved. The load of information, however, undergoes colorful digestion. I vascillate - between variously distressed, childishly curious, philosophical and intellectual preoccupation - and heart-shaking, floor-breaking recognitions in feral, feverish transcendations. Despite only occasional, dizzying moments of overwhelm and your garden-variety frustrations with our ongoing personality crises, I am genuinely thrilled and proud to climb around amongst such inspired harmonics, experiments, manifestations, and families, and to break apart and rise up, rise up, rise up, revelling and reckoning among such power in these crowds. As far as the resume and coyly worded lists of arbitrary proofs hopefully seeming to confirm that I am real and I am here, was there: At this time, while I've still got a sense of humor, I'm coming up for air. If you want more history, details, tall tales, buy me a drink. I'd be much obliged. Book and exhibition news will be posted in an unavoidable manner. Check back for updates. Hilary
