"I'm sure some of you will find it hard to watch this video. I can only say for me, I found it very eye opening as to the confusion and what must feel like hell to live at times as a schizophrenic. I would HIGHLY recommend reading some of Jonathan’s writing before you watch the film. Why, you may ask? Because he is ONE hell of an inspiration and shares words of hope along with positive thinking. T...

Hello again friends and fans! Working on BEAUTIFUL NIGHTMARE was primarily influenced by challenging myself to be okay with the gifts of imperfection, artistic imperfection, to be more precise, leaving some intentionally undone otherwise perfectionistic creative choices; my goal was to not overdo or over produce the film or soundtrack edits on this particular project. I completed this short film o...

In self-sabotage mode today severing ties w/ all friends/family/business contacts, driving recklessly, firing doctors, etc. Dancing on edge w/ the fire of mental illness w/o care of the consequences in this full-blown hallucinatory mania, the guilt to follow. Full-blooded music, Slayer and so forth, keeps me alive, drowning out terrorizing voices. Calling for help now to avoid hospitalization. Thi...

As a...

I love my fans, friends, and students at Northwest Missouri State University! At the end of the second class within this webcast I had the amazing opportunity to meet with one student in particular with whom I was able to listen, and connect on such a deep and personal level which resulted in my decision to delete that section from the public arena and simply keep for myself. It was enormously tou...

I competed Melt Away while undergoing a dark, deep experience with depression, existential despair and with new tears for old grief. I am glad to see so many people have been appreciating my movies' inherent beauty. I thank you, all, to God, and to all my fans, friends, and family for playing such a very special role in these experimental pieces, although perhaps without you knowing it. I am broug...

I am a troubled artist today. I do not know what day it is. I am extremely frustrated. Unable to ground and center myself, I feel restless. I am …

I competed these films while undergoing a dark, deep experience with depression, existential despair and with new tears for old grief.

I feel accomplished this morning after a load on my back was removed finall...

He then crawls around on salt grains—the pain feels great. Ben asks why he hurt himself. Georgie tells Ben about the nanny that abused him, to explain his craziness. Georgie tells Ben he is...
