Reflections on the interconnectedness of all life and the importance of reconnecting with nature and with each other. We are not isolated individuals, but parts of an infinite, fractal crochet-web of life. Artists are social detritivores, like vultures, critical to the social ecosystem, consuming and transforming society's pain and decay into something that could become new and meaningful.

    Grief and Insurance

    "As I watched the 29 year old husband of one of my dearest friends die, horrifically, the spectre of the American health insurance system was an ever-present additional torture.

    The Wandering Path of Desire

    "We are already tortured into Fenriswolves. And it’s the context of modernity, of capitalism, the lack of awe in the world around us, the long hours, the inflation, the stress.

You become less Greedwolf Wisdomkiller and more Overlarge but maybe dumb Pupper." Ducks of the World Tree is made with Jetpack Podcast.
