margins and fringes

Many signs lately pointing to outsider living; people on the margins (bearing in mind, as always, that the "margin" means both the edge of the print and the space on the outside of that edge); life on the grid/net/web and off; human interaction vis a vis digital networking, revolutionaries (people, communities, ideas); and buddha-like, the illusion/interconnectedness of all.

Small sample of examples:

children of men
wallace shawn's 'the fever'
happy sunshine kung fu flower
pete townshend's 'lifehouse'
jesus, kidnapped
days of war, nights of love


And while i'm on the subject (or near it), i like the sound of bill moyers for president. No, this does not mean i suddenly believe in the presidency as a platform for real good human development, i'm just saying that hillary is a bad joke and that moyers has that tendency to speak the truth that pisses off so many of the right people.
