Hats off to his works and I’m very interested to see more from him. I agree with his stance about opening the lines of communication between artists in order to propel Atl further as a mecca of the arts. Our art and history (albeit brief) are further cemented in the diversity that Atl attracts – and I truly believe that we can add to the movement, that has already begun, by blurring the lines that separate them towards a more communal approach. If you take the intellect, insight, innovation, and innate creativity expressed by the individual arts (by genre), the end result, through hypothetical seamless fusion and cooperation, could very well be the new enlightenment or change we’ve been expecting, or even fearing.

We have to get out of the mindset that we are billions of individual cultures, formulated beliefs, and acquired experiences, but acknowledge the one mind, one consciousness, that connects us all to express that art truly is and imitates life… as much as life is and, inexorably, mirrors art.
