Music: "Valse Triste," Paul Misraki, "All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace," Richard Brautigan, "Tonada Del Cabestrero," Simon Diaz, "Cogency" Jacqueline Calle, "Theme" Moondog.
“Faith-Based Diet is a taste of recollection, lunar habits and cybernetics. Like swirling dervish that swirl together at this complex moment and computers as if they were flowers. Like shimmering tangles of collaboration and interdependence. Yesterday is real. The sensation of being is real. This collage is remembering as a form of membering.”
