TIME IS SPEEDING UP

TIME IS SPEEDING UP
My high school graduating class is getting ready for their 60th REUNION!!!
How is that possible? I'm not old, I'm just a little wrinkled. I saw some of them at the 40th reunion, but other than a well-maintained news letter, I have almost no contact. Now, I'm living on a sailboat in Belize and have no plans to return to the United States.

They say time is speeding up. Have you noticed? I certainly have!

Tehran, IRAN, July 13, 2009

I first   worked in Iran back in 1974 on a movie project, later teaching in the National Theatre. I didn't leave until the revolution was well under way in November of 1978. I had a unique point of view being one of the very few Americans who worked inside the Shah's government. And during those years I never knew or communicated with any of my countrymen as they were inside their gated, Americanized communities. My friends and co-workers were from all parts of the city, both upper class, diplomats, artists, actors, and ordinary workers and craftsmen, plus all their families. The hospitality of all these Iranians was enormous and heartfelt.   There is so much concern and conflict about the current situation of 2009 that I am compelled to write about what I have seen. This is my own personal experience and memory. I hope my friends will not worry about me as much.     I remember, there was a line across the city; an east-west street named Shah-Reza (now named Enghelab) ...

A new year...

Greetings to all… So much time has passed, and I did not write. I take notes, I keep track of my root-home in Wyoming, my second home in Belize, my friends in California (a very old home), New York, Hawaii, and Canada (more homes of different decades!) With all of that time and experience in the background, I come to another point of view (cinematically speaking). I left the United States in 2004 and now see our world far beyond the "American Illusion." This is my second year living in Tehran, Iran; after several years in Belize, Central America photographing and painting about the Mayans; and half a year in Europe (especially Paris). Remember I lived in the Americanized version of Iran under the Shah some thirty years ago; and have returned to live in the Islamic Republic of Iran (and its ancient history) for a while. It is a question of overlaying memories, the past with the present. First of all, the Old America, the Good Old USA, where I grew up in small-town ...

Welcome to the Virtual Reality Time Machine Your Window to the World is what? Where do you get your information? How did you arrive at your beliefs?  If you are an American or British or perhaps Canadian, how do you react to something like:  " The country is simply busted. Its financial obligations are unpayable, its asset prices are illusions, and the great undertaking in Washington, New York is to preserve those illusions rather than face reality ." How do YOU recognize reality? Your eyes receive light, your ears sound, your skin touch, your tongue senses taste, and your nose inhales smell.  Think about it. From before your birth you were sensing and recording within your brain; billions upon billions of sensory elements whether you are awake or asleep. Somehow it all gets sorted out and now it all makes sense... but looking back it all was just light, sound, contact with your skin, things in your mouth, and in the air you breathe.  Now, in this highly sophisticated, techni...
