What's your favorite place to active social space through art and sound, and why?

I like to use public transportation as a performance space, mainly because it is such a public space, but everyone seems to be so introverted and withdrawn. It's a challenge. Not only are you bridging the proscenium but you're also penetrating a spell of sorts.

What's the spookiest thing that's ever happened to you?

Finding the Deja Vu that the Smithsonain's East Wing Gallery triggered was a little too real for me. Later describing the experience to my dad. Him asking me to describe the paintings on the wall. Describing the Ellsworth Kelly's in meticulous detail. Being told that when I was an infant, these were the very first images I was shown that I could respond to. My first word was 'ooo' and it was uttered in response to these paintings by Ellsworth Kelly.
