the, the last real jobs that last job i got a paycheck from the college professor in new york city at the digital video film academy. and i try to like 20 programming languages and 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 this 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 his art as

well. and, you know, by the end they'd read, you know, because i was making a guy that talked back and we're 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 and a little different, a personalities. and we put people in that room for 5 or 10 minutes and the soon as you say a single word, they all start cascading and go off of each other. so you have this really like a conversation with 5 different people, like one headed, you're making max. and so that goes like different temperaments or women. have you heard of that? second, a logical thing. you've already, the technological singularity is the hypothesis that the invention that artificial super intelligence will abruptly trigger runaway technological growth resulting in understanding the goal changes to human civilization muffler. the

can you tell 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. so, and you can tell that by this long stretch right here. this is where the dining room was, is where the officer sat down and 8. that was 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, 0 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 was just a temporary base during world war 2. while there are training the guys to go to war, you know, this. and then after the wars 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 gonna put in uh, a grove or uh an orchard with um apple trees, ill citrus, a full variety pomegranate. 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, it might be a little challenging. but all cell phone, cell phone for me. so i built this staircase in 7 days for the just to get in the thing the, i want to make it into an off of bond where i have vertical walk upon its coming down the walls. and then i want to grow bits in here. i 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 or provide for the community for the most part

from, you know, fruits industrials. and maybe you have livestock, as far as chickens are, always want to keep costs for garden dogs needs to 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 parrot that wall right here to take this bag. yeah. i just use what i got here. usually i re opposed service, but i'm kind of looking for something like that drugs. 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 some pretty things now. yeah, that's why i'm saying, uh maybe even help me out cuz i'm telling you man, there's a weird bike put those sparks others have failure cuz just go the other way. just like that. yeah. last night and my last wife i shot my brother in law. i got sent to bring in board. i've just said god, today, i didn't kill him. so yeah, this is nice that they do more hours or she divorced me. you know? no. i mean i could 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 my mouth? i my crack, which is and think i was broken, hasn't 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 don't want to. 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 seemed 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 there. they've gone in and try and come back up. and i'm, i'm doing it doing this slowly and how long you've been here. about 5 years, they picked me up about 6 months and after i'd been here, they picked me up right in my b mx 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 start from the sheet up. you have the people are here because they have no risk to go. or they can function in

society. and the other hand of here because they loved the place and there's no where 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, so i'm not serving, i'm taking a spot somewhere. someone can live here who has, who can live anywhere else. 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 up to earn my spot here. several 100 people have passed through here. either on their way somewhere else or provide safe space to abuse women, to elderly people, to mentally ill people to alex and to children. you know, to, 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 an intel executive report of this 25 years that that had an extensive bank account. tell me no, actually the game i did a whole further than my cousin asking on time, what was it like living in the white man's world and i went to the sales floor and i i couldn't recall him. the culture of all to know 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 or get to live it every day? i was a born again. christian, conservative house was for put executive i gave him 6 kids or 5 kids

and the baby came after me. then once on that mostly and talk, rest them square. 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 and all the dogs. how did the dogs get along with the goat for these things, susan? it's one of them. this is just a horton dog. your name again is mike. uh, mark. so he is michael. mark friedenthal america. 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, 0 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 and owning a motor home. got it started getting more expensive than the economy 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 don't have a way to build a life that you'd want, you know, you cry and never transition to now of the ninety's. kind of try out the politics of the not just continued all the way all the way for the of course to go see the crime. never, never had a breach of choice. you come and some stability is the power all site the the, the

position i was suggesting fell great. i was suggesting that we send americans in and uh, the bridges on the drain and put on your bill is us. an obama move donnie and holly now and they'll talk soon. but as to when you see it, all the owners will tell you that you will see the list of classes. you know, the valuables are. these are what are normal file post. most most, most of all it does in this one is not as a guide on a source or cit, emotional around noon. it may be, you know, a lot less radioactive than the something is active uranium, but still it's radioactive and has toxins that killed the laptop. you want me to go and see. so ease of us here. again, let's see the echo seats. the boeing good. i don't know the mold was suggesting we

pharma fell great the bill college. what was the range of g like? so what did you say? i'm going to start remembering so there we have a lot of refugees. we don't have to have the 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 the and living and skid row of los angeles. you know, that's gotta be so hopeless. it's heavy. i think about this because i'm in fear of what they think about. then 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 out 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 is syndicated. all this is one big happy family. that's what i like. and even though you see people here with nothing, you know, some of them are cardboard checks, you know, but a cardboard shack of real coffee. if you just been sleeping on the dirt, you know, and you get a few odd jobs and maybe you could find a rundown,

broken down trailer to deliver it and 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 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 and free is 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 just come and ask if you're all right, but nobody's going to car job to jail for a 77 decades long as you're trying to. but so you here, you can do the things you want to do without having to have a. you didn't turn in jail, have people take what you on?

yeah, i got to talk reading, tony sometimes who is doing this brown over here. so you're saying this is my little 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 cooking with gas now. you were out for 2 days. i don't know. hardly ever run, i guess, but somehow within flushing away it is a things costing so much where i'm treasure i just heard from my beer because it's like i said, inflation oh, 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 that's just really ticked is right in your wallet. you know, right in a money department. if you're fortunate, if you get money out here,

some of us are and some of us aren't. so everything has gone up and so much in price. 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 retired and that's to go here in the future retirement. and after that, you know, got some things to do 6 bucks. 6, but anyway, that's up 7, said $70.00 just everybody live. 7 bucks are going see here. this is the problem, i'm that for this and to no doubt 99 or 10 to the airbag

issue, still gotta get ready to get your money. oh wow. i worked for 25 years and whatnot. and then all a sudden it gave me as a, you know, literally disturb kind of, but as i have, you know, this year and then my 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 a, yeah, a boy. i loved the torch. feeding i was a welder too. but, well, garage a pretty good welder, but in your torch department and feeling, you know, why was that the tough?

so would you say i 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, to 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 so it has a good combination of people where we're here, where we do do it in combinations of people. we help each other. sure. and as a good thing, over a year ago, we started what we call these labs, the soup kitchen, cuz every poor community, an american, 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 a little thing here. um and it just is just trying to help our neighbors out. i mean, it is a place to congregate, a place to eat. and joe is all done by one man named lorenzo. even when he's our cook. i kind of put it together in between to, to meet him and

a couple of their homes were full and put it out. you're on the streets, you know, i mean, you know, trying to change what chance i james thing thing value. i'm sure you see, i mean it's live so these are please feel free meal in a bag of food is a nice thing every week. we're all not at the bag 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 ones i want to do something nice for somebody. so we decided feet and i mean, i cleaned up stop doing drugs and opened up a soup kitchen to my town. yeah, hands are getting bags that always taking. i mean, everybody goes up. everybody goes up. somebody has always 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. you know, when everybody come dissipated food in their, in their, their smiling trap. josh, was them to me in there may the term,

does your mental re huge was the age of 1st. so the cut has to be 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 good. the reason i've kept it for 20 years is the only thing i ever did that made a difference in the world. you know, this wasn't here the people in that that 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 the thing we're, that the humanity of the beauty of, of life comes out. the feeling of, of the art, the feeling of people feeling like they're an artist, is it goes 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 or the neg wrote yeah, really bad actually. so my friend screwed this piece of metal on and i, when i read poxy, did you say you say that the young people wants to play did 13 year? yeah, i learned like, uh, maybe 3 years ago now, maybe

a little less than that and was a and wasn't inspiring 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 i always sit in the front and i watch them and i love it. i do that in new york . you like watching music and it's like, i can't 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 court, you know, where they're had to sing to which, and the most thing i would do is like, it doesn't carry over the 2nd half of them, good half of them. and they will learn how to write songs to, and we do a lot of the same time and i'm going to stand up there next to my heroes, you know, nice to be able to bill and all these amazing challenge 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 favorite songs and they tell me that i can do that most. no,
