Knocking on the monastery door

I wrote Eugenio today, and said I was ready to join the Odin.

There is a Starbucks at the corner of Main and 148th. It has high ceilings, windows, and wide chairs. A huge glorious digital painting covers one wall. From the day I first walked in, I wanted to make a play in front of that painting. For three years I have looked at its complex beauty, and wished I could make a play as good.

On Monday I realized, I have. I sat there for half an hour sipping my mocha, relishing the painting's great incomprehensible play of organic forms and light, mapping it to Nanda Devi.

WOW WEEE! That is very, very exciting. I want to hear more, and hope you can keep this going when you go to Denmark. I want to see some shows in Europe in a year and a half or so, and will put Denmark on my itinerary!
