i wanna know how your morning routine relates to your view of beauty
actually, morning routine isn't even all of it
what i'm getting at is the way beauty is at play in our everyday lives, in the way that we run our lives- constantly- and how that interplays with who we are and how we view ourselves
there's a lot of easy answers for this- everything is beautiful, beauty is what pleases us, beauty is inside, beauty is outside- but i don't think any of them really have any meaning beyond some degree of rhetoric
we spend a lotta time discussing natural, but natural is beside the point for me. it's just another aesthetic.
i don't think that beauty is universal or counetrevolutionary- but i do think that beauty has to be, to some degree, on some level, an element of a movement that gains a following
what kinda beauty? what is beauty? what comprises beauty in actuality has nuthin to do with the aesthetics we've been fed our whole lives, and actually, the beauty aesthetics that we ascribe to do tell us a helluva lot about ourselves as people and the beliefs that underlie our actions and methods of living-

"baby, I'd draw yuh bath like Picasso..
pick you, like fruit off yuh family tree. & eatcha' honeydew ass, wet"
-Giovanni, rhythmic poet extraordinaire
i believe in education and empowerment through art. i believe that movements happen when ideas are set to music. bodies and people come together through dance and movement, eyes awaken in the face of a good movie, and whatever ya gotta say is useless unless you can use these tools to reach right into people
