Quiet Eye (official music video) by Jeff Jahn YouTube video by Mister Jahn

Today Kristi Noem was fired, under pressure for her handling of Trump's policies in Portland, LA, Chicago and Minneapolis. Being a tyrant's toady never pays. That said this isnt over but shows how effective peaceful protest in support of rights can be. This song is a tango

Welcome to my studio: recording, library, writer's den and video production YouTube video by Mister Jahn

Take a little visit to a corner of my studio/writer's den: youtu.be/qvCl3uMecd0?... This room is practically a biography.

Did you know that Mark Rothko moved to Portland in 1913, and as a young boy, sold newspapers on the same block that today is home to the Portland Arts Collective?

"An exploration of Rothko concomitant visual and philosophical exigencies among artists who have called Portland home. It is not a tribute show or any claim of hereditament, just expect surprises that reveal sonorities and important dissonances with Portland’s most culturally pertinacious son."

Existential Emulsifier is open now @ Portland Arts Collective 122NW Couch, Portland Oregon (Wed-Sat 12-5) December 4-27 www.portlandartscollective.org

PAM is free the next 4 days. What an incredibly significant and meaningful day with the public opening of the Rothko Pavilion expansion @portlandartmuseum.bsky.social museum. As providence would have it I was standing right next to Kate and Christopher Rothko and got to share a few meaningful words.
