Finding NETI

As a followup to the original NETI intorductory short, this movie explores the man behind the myth, asking the hard questions about existence and whether identity is real or imagined.  How can NETI be that he is not?  And if he is not, then what is he not?...

Triggering My Abuse – the music video

We had such fun making this music video at a recent Soiree with friends.  It's absurd and hilariously ridiculous, an absolutely essential healing and cathartic experience. Don't be turned off by the taboo title. At some point we just have to laugh about these stories...

Jesus Slept

This is the poem that so many asked me about during a recent poetry reading at The 827.  Come read your poems there too, every Wednesday evening at 7:30 - 9pm.  While there, take in the NETI exhibit.  When I say take it in, I mean TAKE IT IN!  Like a poem.  ...

The Text Monster

How often do we text and drive?  Just a little bit here and there?  Stopped at a light?  Just a quick, "got it."  The Text Monster doesn't care.  She says, "don't say you're sorry, just don't do it!" These films all have a message but they are all about character and...
