Dedicated Demo 1999

I have a dream of a scene between the green hills
Clouds pull away and the sunlight's revealed
People don't talk about keeping it real
It's understood that they actually will
And intoxicated and stimulated emcees
Staring in the trees, paranoid, are gone in the breeze
Watch them flee, hip-hop hits
Take a walk with me and what you'll see
Is a land where the sand is made up of crushed up wax
And the sky beyond you is krylon glue
And everybody speaks in a dialect of rhyme
And emcees have left materialism behind them
Meanwhile I just grip my mic
And hope me and my team make it through alright
Because say what you will, and say what you might
But don't ignore who it's for at the end of the night

[CHORUS]
Because this is dedicated to the kids
Dedicated to wherever music lives
Dedicated to those tired of the same ol' same
And dedicated to the people advancin' the game
What's real is the kids who know that something's wrong
What's real is the kids who think they don't belong
What's real is the kids who have nowhere to run
Who are hiding in the shadows waiting for the sun

I've seen a lot of shit, I've talked to a bum
Out on sunset strip, he asked me "How would you feel
If everybody acted like you didn't exist
You'd lose your grip, probably eventually flip."
So let it be known, the only reason that we do this
Is so you can pick it up and just bang your head to it
While emcees fight to see who can be the commonest
Be floatin overhead like a space odyssey monolith
Over seeing the game, over being part of the same ol' thing
It's all gonna change in a hurricane of darkness and pain
And acidic rain and promises that you won't do it again
Meanwhile I just grip my mic
And hope me and my team make it through alright
Because say what you will, and say what you might
But don't ignore who it's for at the end of the night

[Repeat Chorus]

Pulling me close, the shadow is warm inside
This is where I feel at home, this is my place to hide
Pulling me close, the shadow is warm inside
This is where I feel at home, this is my place to hide

[Repeat Chorus]

This is dedicated to the kids
Dedicated to wherever music lives
Dedicated to those tired of the same ol' same
And dedicated to the people advancin' the game
What's real, everybody who doesn't feel safe
What's real, everybody who knows they're out of place
What's real, anybody with nowhere to run
Who hides in the shadows waiting for the sun

Unification of Physics through Spirituality

[If you are sufficiently open-minded and open-hearted, this article will help you "see" exactly how to unite modern science, logic/philosophy, and a universal spiritual understanding. I do not envy the attention I may receive: I am a peaceful, quiet soul, but I will answer questions. Please pass along to every physics, philosophy, and spiritual guru you know.]


"Deflagrate muri tempi et intervallia."

The solution to resolving General Relativity with Quantum Mechanics requires completely doing away with the world's currently minuscule and arrogant perspective on the nature of reality. It requires completely clearing away our currently rigid systems of self-clouded perspective. Systematic ("masculine") observation and analysis must be Unified with intuitive ("feminine") knowing-Union with the Universal Spirit-Consciousness who Creates through Us, and is already dwelling in, through, and all around me (as pure vibrational energy on frequency levels humans cannot yet fully detect and decode with their technologies).

The scientific method cannot bridge that last gap to inner-enlightenment; intuitive, inner-light awareness of Truth from within yourself, that is required. "WiseFromWithin".

"He who knows others is wise; He who knows himself is enlightened." —  Lao-Tzu

Our Universe is the child of a parent Universe's collapsed energy-focus ("embryo"/"star" turned "baby"/"black-hole"). The loving matter-wave Union of the ignited star ("fertilized embryo") serves as the first phase of Life in the womb, so-to-speak, but only some are sustained by enough Love/gravity to cause exit from "the womb" of our universe which gave birth to it (a new geometric "Child" universe). Each one has a unique fundamental frequency from which all overtones series manifest from. The Big Bang is literally like striking a gong in terms of energy flow. Each fundamental frequency manifests its particular internal dimensional geometries ("golden spiral/ratios", sequence of Prime Numbers, waveform "acoustics", etc.)

The moment a blackhole's event horizon "emerges" out of the center of the collapsing star, that which is passing across the event horizon threshold becomes the "light"/energy/consciousness projecting through the holographic "plate" (the event horizon itself)."Matter acts, but there are no actors behind the actions; the verbs are verbing all by themselves without a need to introduce nouns. Actions act upon other actions. Properties are all there is. Indeed: there are no things." — David Mermin

All matter-energy consumed over the black-hole's life serves as the creative-consciousness impulse that is "the Breath of Life" within that perceived universe, driving all growth and causality. In other words, our consciousness literally is the shimmering of matter-energy projecting through the holographic plane (event horizon). You could think of our Individualized Consciousnesses in the general form of "de Broglie" waves, that inherently perceive particles where the centers of standing-waves are. That's why particles only exist to the extent local consciousness perceives/creates. Time only appears to seem to move forward as the de Broglie/Consciousness scans along the holographic "film reel."

Stars are literally embryos that either fail or succeed at being the creative impulse for the birth of a new universe. Gravity is to Magnetism is to the Strong Nuclear Force is to "Feminine" manifestation/impulse in the physical plane of awareness, as "Light" is to Electricity is to the Weak Nuclear Force is to "Masculine" manifestation. At "event horizons" the space-time yin-yang polarity of forces are rotated within the higher-dimensional energy-geometry planes that exist fractalinearly without bound on inward and outward geometric scaling.

There are of course higher binding energies and operating frequencies than these force-particle pairs that humans cannot yet detect with technology. They are each yin-yang pairs that are a part of a unified consciousness-energy spectrum ("Tao"/"God, the Source"). There are infinite levels of manifestation.

"Things derive their being and nature by mutual dependence and are nothing in themselves."

— Nagarjuna

"Nothing ever exists entirely alone; everything is in relation to everything else." — Buddha

Gravity is literally "Love" manifest on much lower wavelengths than humans can properly perceive usually, but do on "emotional wavelengths" of Consciousness, only insofar as your worldview is unrestricted by religious and scientific dogma. We must complete the Unification of Spiritualism with Logic-Knowledge to achieve the birth of the next stage in human evolution. Humanity need not be desperate for division and segregation, for this is the fundamental illusion of our times.

Key point: Electricity/Weak-Nuclear/Yin/etc. (musculine outward focus {adventure-seeking)} is the opposite force-manifestation of Magnetism/Strong-Nuclear/Yang/etc. (feminine inward focus {nesting-instinct}). Combining them is the very act of Creation. We all do this, most currently still are without realizing it.

My Debut Album: Wise 'Trip' EP

You can listen to the finalized version of my entire album on SoundCloud.
It is also available on iTunes, Spotify, Google Play, Amazon MP3, Deezer, and Rdio!

Wise 'Trip' EP is a "concept album," falling under the sub-genres of ambient, ambient industrial, and "space music," that provides the listener with a variety of unique mental impressions united by a thread of universal metaphysical concepts concerning life and reality.  'Trip' has a double-meaning: trip, as in a journey; and trip, as in a "head-trip".

My goal has been to create a truly fresh, unique, and rich listening experience, with each song being structured and composed to serve as a musical metaphor for the concepts and feelings I wanted to share.  I did not wish to be bound by common song structures in doing so--the structures are defined instead by the concepts themselves.

I have thrown in a mellow, alternative genre "bonus track" I recorded and produced in a little over an hour using a full-featured recording studio.  It was intentionally produced to give it an impromptu, "off-the-cuff" performance feel, with every instrumental and vocal track performed by Drake Holliday.  He has my thanks for letting me work with him on it, and for letting me share this song.

The lyrics for "Ascendency" were written by Taylor Podkranic.  I'm grateful to him for writing them specifically for me, and for how personally meaningful they are to me.  I'm further grateful for him transferring copyright ownership of the lyrics over to my record label.  All together, a great example of thoughtful altruism.

"Ascendancy" was a song born from a deeply personal struggle I had for many years. The primary concept conveyed musically is of moving from "darkness to light". The lyrics, which have strong ties to the mythology of the Phoenix (and were written for me by my friend Taylor Podkranic), are perfectly complimentary to the musical development of the song. The purpose of the song, as a whole, is to remind and inspire people, who may be in, or at least remember, that in their darkest hour, they can transcend their limits and struggles to be reborn into whoever they wish to be...

"Ascendancy" Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Broken and beaten,

to the depths of my soul

Sundered and shaken,

will I ever be whole?

(Repeat Verse)

[Chorus 1]

Climbing higher and higher,

fists to the sky

Through the smoke and the fire,

screaming why... why!

Why did I fracture?

Why did I break?

Can I come back together?

What will it take?

No longer that boy

Reborn as a man

Embers burn in my eyes,

and now here I stand

...now here I stand

[Verse 2]

Self-loathing a cancer,

dragging me down

Choking on silence,

what then is the sound?

Of a soul as it's breaking,

as all lies are lost

As new eyes come open,

I know the cost

[Chorus 2]

Climbing higher and higher,

fists to the sky

Through smoke and the fire,

screaming why... why!

Why did I stumble?

Why did I fall?

Am I worth saving?

Am I worth it at all?

The answer is yes!

We deserve one more chance

A shot at redemption

I'm worth more than a glance

...more than a glance

[Bridge]

Because if you watch,

I'll burst into flames,

soar out of my ashes

Remember my name

Suffering can cleanse you,

each trial a gift

Harder, Faster, Stronger,

even mountains may shift

You have the power

Exert your will

Learn from this lesson,

as I am still...

[Final Chorus]

Climbing higher and higher,

fists to the sky

Through the smoke and the fire,

screaming I will not die

Now I can fly,

fists to the sky

I will not die

Now I can... fly...

[Outro]

What is broken,

may be mended... (x7)

An Inquiry into the Fundamental Nature of Existence (Reality)

[Although all of the concepts and unifying "Theory of Everything" framework for them have been fully formed, getting it on paper is an ongoing work in progress.  I will be regularly updating this post as the book continues to come together.  Enjoy, and please comment!]

Systemic Vulnerabilities in the Global Economy

Hello All,

     It would seem, 14 years later, that I was correct in the grander thesis I strongly eluded to throughout my H.S. Senior Paper (available at http://j.mp/SeniorPaper).  In the global economy there has been an ever-growing trend of:

  Increasing over-interdependence of large-scale economic providers, within increasingly-globalized supply chain-webs (most courtesy of “J.I.T.” supply systems, globalized ‘vertical specialization,’ and as I now recognize, the overly interdependent Banking & Lending {financing} web), have made what once was a relatively resilient economic system, capable of dampening out local disruptions, turn into one of a remarkably systemically fragile nature — inherently of the nature to propagate and “snow-ball” microeconomic disruptions into massive socioeconomic disruptions (recent e.g., the 2008 “Sub-Prime Mortgage Bubble” collapse, inducing the “Great Recession”).

I would appreciate your feedback.  This economic trend is going to inevitably be disastrous if we do not alleviate the fundamental systemic vulnerabilities elluded to in my research paper.  Thank you.



"One Love"
