I'm pretty much your common-or-garden lesser-spotted maverick.

This year I'm focussing on:

(1) Augusto Boal's Theatre of the Oppressed.

(2) Writing and directing corporate and industrial theatre and video.

(3) Creativity workshops.

(4) Life coaching and mentoring.

(5) Building my practice as an Hawaiian ka huna masseur.

(6) Building my profile as a voice-over artist.

I exercise my creativity in several artforms. I've made movies, written tons of poems, written a novel, performed poetry and standup comedy.

I hang out in coffee-shops, and draw people in my sketchbook and on my iPAQ 2210 palmtop computer. Viva!!!

My life motto is: "I live my art in prosperity and abundance."

I'm also a publisher. This site is a little outdated now, but the poetry on it is awesome. Barefoot Press was the first South African poetry website:

I'm not incredibly disciplined about using deli.icio.us, but I'm getting better as time goes by. Here is a list of all the bookmarks I've saved to this amazing service:
My del.icio.us Bookmarks

Please do NOT follow this link if you don't want to be shocked. It's a list of search terms that somehow lead to me. All I can say is that there are some serious perverts out there. And it seems that the search engines link words together from disparate parts of a site, thereby leading people to me. I don't get it:
Real Search Terms That Somehow, Inexplicably, Lead to My Sites, Seriously

If you haven't been to Squidoo.com yet, you've gotta look into it. It's a knowledge-sharing resource, the brainchild of marketing whizz Seth Godin. I've got a whole bunch of lenses on topics I find interesting, and which I have some knowledge on:
