the, the last real job, last job i got a paycheck from was a college professor in new york city at the digital new york film academy. and i tried to make 20 programming languages in different classes. i have all the courses here and i found them all recently, which is great, like i was looking at my google drive and i was like, i have recordings of my lectures. i have my quote, i have my lesson plans. my are is, is digital. i actually joined a, our community in brooklyn to, to just to,

to prove that to myself and to other people that are taken out to do is art as well . and, you know, by the end they agreed, you know, because i was making a i that talked back and i was doing gallery shows where we will put people in a room. you know, we have like a bunch of mannequins like 5 mannequins with different, different personalities, a little different, a personalities. and we put people in that room for 5 or 10 minutes. and as soon as you say single word, they all start cascading and go off of each other. so you have this really like a inches conversation with 5 different people, like one headed, you're making max. and so that goes like different temperaments are women, have you ever heard of that? second, a logical singularity. the technological singularity is the hypothesis that the invention of artificial super intelligence will abruptly trigger runaway technological growth. resulting in understanding the goal changes to human civilization. muffler of

the can you tell me please, what is is left and what is the cost of sitting there? should i have right here? like i say, this is one of the dining halls. and you can tell the advisors long stretch right here. this is where the dining room was, is where the officers sit down and they stablish probably a storage st, cuz you could tell there was walls went there. you could tell were all the walls when i bet any money that high rise section right there. there was where they went and got their food. it was a mess. all right, of the soldiers food place. you know, we call the mess in the military. i don't know why they call it the mess, but that's what it is, right? there are forest labs just like this one around here. i mean, exactly the same pattern, the military, this is just a temporary base during world war 2. while there are training the guys to go to war,

you know, and then the, so after the words they, they close this base down the think a 1st year i was out here. all these feel this was like a field and there was so much green on it like the plants. so we see right here where like feel like it looked like a blanket blanket of green and there was these, i don't know what kind of butterfly they were, but they're migrating and you'd walk through and they just like lift up and it was like, you know, like a blanket moved on right here. i'm going to put in uh, a grove or uh an orchard with um apple trees, ill citrus, a full variety palm around it. a lot of different things. my sister's husband bought me 14 trees for trees. so maybe putting those in the i built the staircase of 4

years ago now it goes down or up the end of it up to the top of the tank wall. and then i did a whole ladder on the inside that goes down into the tank. and it's a if you're afraid of heights and might be a little challenging, but all cell phone, cell phone for me. so i've built this stair case and 7 days for the just to get in the thing the, i want to make it into an off of phonics where i have vertical aqua phonics coming down the walls. and then i want to grow bits in here that want to have a trough all way around. $471.00 foot circumference. yeah. it's going to be a big project like to go enough to provide for the community for the most part from

young fruits and vegetables. and maybe you have livestock as far as chickens. i always want to keep costs for garden dogs. easy be coming down. the wall right here, the like that and come back and drop down into the the trough. this trough would be like maybe 3 feet off and wall about 3 feet high. and just put a legal parapet wall right here for texas, but yeah, i just use what i got here. usually i re opposed her receipt, but i'm kind of looking for something like that drugs. okay. yeah. okay. well, i will say i got something to do every day, and it's

a good thing your life stay busy because i've been through some crap in my life and i'm a processor and really a, you know, i don't hold myself to my pass. but if you say you don't think about it, you know, believe me, i've done so i'm pretty james now. yeah, that's why i'm saying. uh maybe you can help me out cuz i'm telling you, man, it's a weird but put those bar shoppers natural. yeah. cuz just go the other way. there's like that. yeah, rob martin, my last wife i shot my brother in law. i got a sense of bringing board i've just said god, today i doing drilling. so a. yeah. this is less that they do more hours or she divorce me, you know, and i mean, i can talk about it now, but it was a very difficult time. i. i remember that time and being in prison on top of that,

i couldn't even talk. may i go to, oh, my mouth i my crack, which is and think i was broken, has a man, but at that day in there, i mean it was a restaurant space there. i remember though to see it was only 5 years ago or so for me you yeah. about 5 years minus the 7 months the 7 months that i left it for prison for 7 months, i'd rather talk about the future in like what i'm doing now. you know then, and then all the problems they gotten here, but i mean, you know, you have to bring it up, i suppose, just to, you know, the, the whole story. you're doing one thing. yeah. yeah. it's not that big a deal though. i guess just seem like a lot when i was going through it though, you know, and i've seen a lot of other people too, so i got compassion for people because i've been there kind of a lot of it on

a lot of the homeless things and stuff like that now. so i know what i know what it's like to get down or they've gone in and try and come back up. and i'm, i'm doing it. doing it slowly. and so when you'd be here about 5 years, they picked me up about 6 months and after i'd been here, they picked me up right in my, in the mix bicycle down the side of the road, was about 30 feet off the road. they stopped me for no light on my bike after sunset, and i had a warrant from san diego felony warrant for some stuff and, and that's why i came out here to try and trying get away from them because they're just, they were looking for things they were creating, creating problems where there was no problems. so they could profit off of it. okay, jim, you've already put select stuff in the sheet, up have the people out here

because they have no risk to go. or they can't function in society. and the other hand of here because they loved the place and there's nowhere else they'd rather be than here. but i'm one of those people. so i to leave and i did for a little while. and i, i always remember that. and that's why i'm patient intolerant. with people because the, if i'm not serving, i'm taking a spot somewhere. someone can live here who has, who can live anywhere else. and so if i'm going to live here by my own choice, when i have the option to go to los angeles and do fine, and then i need to serve to make a student to earn my spot. here several 100 people have passed through here. either under way, somewhere else or provide safe space to abuse women, to elderly people, to mentally ill, people, to addicts, to children. you know, if i have an extra trailer, i always i always making rooms out of it so that when people come near phase the

state and they have one that i was married to until executives for, for all this 25 years that that had an extensive bank account, tell me. no. actually the game i did the whole purpose and my cousin asking on time, what was it like living in the white man's world and i went to the art sales floor and i i couldn't recall him. the culture of old service feeling that white man mentality of their just spectators. they're not participants in life . but they pay for adventures. call it a living. right. why are going to leave it every day? i was a born again. christian conservative house was for predict 16.

i gave him 6 capable of 5 kids and the baby came up to me. and one son that loves me and tough. the rest, i'm swear i lost my mind. it's no better place to be to the village in the some beautiful features and live free live. however you want to get along with everyone who had all the dogs. how did the dogs get along with the goat of these things? susan? it's one of them. this is just a horn dog. your name again is mike. uh, mark. so he's my pulled hard for info and marco paul. uh no. i know i get it

as love as julie and i just in the sense that there are no authority is within the city. everyone is their own citizen, including the animal who owns free. awesome. and there's no organization except for what comes out except for what emerges from everyone coming together, bring their own situation to it, and creating their own home and environment. and joining in when i 1st came there, most of the population here was snowbirds, you know, mom and pop. get to retirement age, the kids a wall left. so they sell the house and buy a big motor home and start traveling. and you could stay here for free. and so

those were the people i met when i 1st came here. the people all started getting old. owning a motor home got is 30 getting more expensive than the economy we started going down and are all those factors together. those that crowd of people died out. but now i, in the world today. there's a lot of people that i don't have a way to build a life that you'd want, you know, the

ukraine never transitioned out of the 90s coyote politics of the not just continued all the way all the way through. yeah, of course to go see the new crime that i never had a breach of trust you come in with some stability is the power all site the the the

the the next door rang thoughts and t like so one of these days i'm going to start remembering the whole, so there we have a lot of refugees. we don't have any regrets for refugees because we got refugees right here. you know, you see the, all the, the blue tart homeless people in los angeles and, and the other cities. i'm sure this is better living then living and skid row, los angeles, you know, that's gotta be so hopeless to chevy and think

about this. people come in here, what they think about that. i see a bunch of hungry people feel and this is blessing right here. for all that food we get him. we good. try like you to feel a lot of this whole thing really come and look every month. but every month feel they make sure that we hit, we have food out here. you know, a lot of people are hungry there. don't have no money or anything vices. you say yeah, it's all good to love the community that helps the people out here. that's what i love the most likely the, all this is one big happy family. that's what i like. and even though you see people here with uh, nothing, you know, some of them cardboard checks, you know, that but a cardboard shack of real coffee. if you just been sleeping on the dirt. you know,

you get a few odd jobs and maybe you could find a rundown, broken down trailers to live in. you know, they can pull your life together and that kind of way here, where if you're in the city, is it never ever met the cancellation in your car and see? yeah. you know, those, those sites you run you off, but i'm not always nice because that's why we call this the last free place. because it is not because you can't live here in free. it's because you can be here and nobody's going to persecute or prosecute you about it. you know, you're just laying down in the dirt here. people are just coming to ask if you're all right, if nobody's going to charge you off to jail for oh, $77.00 decades, don't insure. but so, you know, here you can choose the things you want to do without having to have

a you didn't thrown in jail, they have people think what you all are now i got to talk reading tony. sometimes it was just doing this brown over here. so yes, thank goodness, in my kitchen area is in transition, as is, everything's really in transition all this time. but uh, yeah, so it's all scrambled around right now and when i get done with it, well i have a good job. what is it? i don't know what to come with gas now. you were out for 2 days. i don't know. hardly ever run out of gas, but somehow within flushing away it is a things cost in some way where i've treasure i just talked to my beer because it's like i said, inflation o inflation is gone up. so i a last one year. i mean, it's been going up for like 4 or 5 years now. but the last year i, that's just really checked is right here in wallace. you know,

right in the money department. if you're fortunate, if you get money out here, some of the shar and some of the start, everything has gone up and show much impression. and especially if you have to shop right here in town through, gosh, robbery is a 1st degree you get food stamps once a month. i just but i buy cheap natives. very try to get my money is i asked as long as i possibly can. i mean, i got a couple more years. i retired that's. that's the goal here in future retirement. and after that now got some things to do. 6 bucks. fix with any of that. it's up 7, said 7 and obviously the $7.00 are going. the city here is the problem. i'm that for the family to no doubt 99 or 10

to the airbag issue, states gotta get ready to get your money. oh wow. i worst you for 25 years and whatnot. and then all a sudden it gave me as a, you know, um, literally disturb time ago. but i have no idea if you remember body showed here for uh, you know, you got your option down the highs and lows and this type of thing. and that is, um, you know, considered to be a handicapped of shots that to where they, you know, show up on your hands on there. i mentioned that mine was, uh, yeah, a boy. i loved the torch feeding. uh, we show a welder too. but, well, garage a pretty good welder, but in your torch department and feeling no my was that the top

floor where you said you wouldn't be probably able to make it out there with the amount of money. oh, hell no. but you have to have 2 or 3 people, you know, conglomerate, and together to do you have enough money to pay the rent to pay your electric, just pay your sewer bill. and obviously, again, by your groceries, you know, as you, it has a good combination of people where we're here, which we do do it in combinations that people only help each other. sure. and that's a good thing. over a year ago we started what we call the slabs, the soup kitchen, cuz every poor community in america and brought like it almost a world nowadays has some kind of free feeding. but we didn't like study. so i'm starting a little over a year ago on christmas morning. we started feeding on sundays and we've been feeding every sunday for a year. and as you can see, we're starting it a little thing here. um and it just is just trying to help our neighbors out. and i mean, it is

a place to congregate and always to eat. and joe is all done by one man named lorenzo. even when he's our cook. i kind of put it together and which means it to meet him in a couple of their homes and put it out. you're on the streets and i mean, you know, trying to change what chance i change these things out here. i'm sure you see, i mean obviously these are places you know, a free meal in a bag and food is a nice thing every week. we're on out at the back of food yet, but we're trying to get bags of food too. but we do every sunday we see before i can this lives, i was on the streets. i've been excited for 15 years. i've been in prison. i've sold drugs. i've, i've done a lot of things. and for one is i want to do something nice for somebody. so we decided feet. and i mean, i cleaned up stop doing drugs and open up the soup kitchen in my town. yeah, i'm start getting bags that always taking. i mean, everybody goes up. everybody goes up, somebody has really started early, early learning, you know, call me slow. you know, i think is like, it took 40 years or 20 years, however long it took me a long time to figure this out, but this is what makes me happy. now, when everybody can get to play the food in their, in their, their smiley trap jobs or, oh,

let's say there may be a dog. you remember we, me, he was the age of 1st. so the what are we the big tall. uh, let me see. uh i think opening day was new year's eve and oh, to the rain. i don't make money. you know, if anything, i spend my money, the reason i've kept at it for 20 years is the only thing i ever did that made a difference in the world. you know, if this wasn't here,

the people that out would be quite a bit different. i think issue, you know, you look around our existence, things to check and look rather bleak. look, but this is a thing where that the humanity of the beauty of, of life comes out. the feeling of the art, the feeling of people feeling like they're an artist, as opposed to a vandal. if it is fixed or selective. the collective self image of everybody here can be part of this. you know, even though it is adult, play of the growth. yeah. really bad actually. so my friend screwed this piece of middle line and i read, i read poxy, did you say you say that the young people wants to play did that year?

yeah, i learned like, uh, maybe 3 years ago now, maybe a little less than that and was a and wasn't conspiring when they were in the range. and yeah, yeah i, i said there for a year and a half or 2 years cuz i live like music, you know, so we sit in the phone and i watch them and i love it. i did it in new york. you like watching music and like i can do that just like most people in the audience, you look in there and you're like, i can never do that right. i can learn how to play guitar in my fourties and they were, they know a single coil. you know, where they're had a thing to which, and the most thing i would do is like, and doesn't carry over the 2nd half of them, good half of them. and then we learn how to write songs to, you know, we do a lot at the same time and i'm going to stand a very next to my heroes. you know, next to build a bill and all these amazing towns that people that view, you know, they're also my family, all those people. so they're letting me their instruments and i was like, these, me another car getting to see it isn't. yeah. now, i know like 4050 songs though,

and i wrote several songs and think to that i can do that. no, i don't know. that's what brought me here. was the public guard or kept me here? that the breath when i got here ignorant, i didn't know nothing about swenson the but it was the public car and some of the minerals that have bloom. my my and it was that was something with things for you to say. yeah. cuz there's not a lot of places where in america, where you can do this and not be criminalized right here you can see any kind of art and it's not criminal. it's appreciated and it's not in some phases. it becomes famous. so this is my original taxidermy dinner party that i did. i think it was 3 years ago when i set this up originally in there. so we've got young box. i'll go back in grandma back and young back is here. bragging about

this guy is like, oh my gosh, humans are so stupid. i was just hiding behind a tree just lasted him right in his face while he was filling up. this car with gas is going to arrears. like, you know, we could add, think we research human some, you know, prostitution rings, drug rings, the homeless. there's so many places we can get people besides us and graham about 5, please just leave me. i'm starving. i will stay here as long as i'm happy here. and right now, i mean, and it's like a dream come true to be living here and having the amount of people that come through every day that i get to share this with and get some people are like mortified. some people are excited. some people are like, oh my gosh, i love your brain and it's like, i didn't really get that kind of attention and feedback when i've been doing my artworks in my life. like even like the 1st post i did of like a baby at all. i put horns on the back to make it look like wings or something and

i posted it on like some obscure, like not instagram, it's like google plus or somewhere. and i really, oh it's, it was one person to be like, oh that's weird. like delete the language the the did the whole fishing. yeah. that's the plague of christianity that it's not against christians. it's just the christianity crusades. and what not the propagation of one, religion type of thing and then the plague, i don't know, it's kind of open to interpretation just to put the name alone. the i'm not an atheist living here in the desert. you find, you find spirituality all over the place, so you get really connected to a lot of things here. the which the not just of, i'm interested in most of them on this for the membership space interest you i, you see, for seniors under the guise of

evacuation about 50000 people were transported the, the main purpose of this concentration camp in federal rules was to in think prisoners was typhus and use them as a human shield against the advancing soviet ami is getting ready to go home. but silicon slipped into phone and you put them in the space given it was in love with like you can pick up the ship value to pump rest of the stuff. i don't want to bring your name here. i'm so sorry i missed goes out there. so it just seems to put precisely and that's the best you know, it's easy use people is biological weapons leading them to perish without food. was the most shelter the door of small it there for me if i did so could if they knew who lives out there, what do you smoke or can you put the intrinsic nation weight in there? so that's a huge issue. leadership for them to move the cam gloster 10 days or what else made

it drastically defense for mazda camps of the 3rd rice watch on t the across the headlines or whatnot. see, i'm facing the flak. this real, here's a wave of condemnation. it's the un security council dismisses its excuses, otherwise more than a 100 civilians were killed in an attack on a schooling god. this is only part of the territories to wear, illuminated on saturday. more than a 100 people died. many of the victims of all re, men and children, a civilian, some sort of an infrastructure should not be a target of major operations. this is a red line, is really, should be raised as you creating and forces are set to up last up to 2000 in the soldiers and it's incursion, it's a rupture, it's quarter regions must go lashes out west and the support for t, as in tensional targeting ups a bit.
