I am a father of one teenage daughter living in the Chicago area, and my wife and I are psytrance and chill organizers through our vehicle The Chilluminati. Come to one of our events, we would love to dance with you!! Also I am interested in psychedelic and consciousness studies, have a deep interest in all questions metaphysical, am the co-keeper of three mystery cats. I am on Yelp, Facebook, Myspace, Tribe, Netflix, del.icio.us, so if you want to be my buddy in any of these places let me know.

BIG Psychedelic events I have attended: Burning Man (1998), Mind States (2003, 2005), Gaian Mind Summer Festival 2005, Shambhala 2007. And of course all the Chilluminati events and other psytrance in the Midwest.

I have lived in India and continue to be very interested in India and am trying to learn more Hindi. Also, I have a keen interest in 21st century global culture, global nomadism and expatriate culture; diasporas, and the effect of the technological whirlwind on our crazy world.
