I just got on twitter because there was some mtv film blog that quoted me on something really innocuous that i supposedly said on twitter before i was even on twitter. so then i had to get on twitter to say: 'this is me. i'm on twitter. if there's somebody else saying that they're me on twitter, they're not.'

This is a gathering of lovers. in this gathering there is no high, no low, no smart, no ignorant, no special assembly, no grand discourse, no proper schooling required. there is no master, no disciple. this gathering is more like a drunken party, full of tricksters, fools, mad men and mad women. this is a gathering of lovers.

It seems to me that information is the thing which uses matter, uses light, uses spirit, uses whatever it can put its hands on to organize itself into higher and higher levels of self-reflection.
