Welcome traveler, sit ye down and rest your soul for 
a fortnight. The road is long and stretches 
before you like the ribbon across the night sky
You are now traveling beyond the federation limit

Hold on to your hats mama, we're coming in for a landing.

Jaris at Montana Gathering - July, 2000. Music and Recordings I'm a professional musician, singer, composer, and arranger and I am available for sessions playing in a wide variety of musical genres. I have an album release called "Dreamstate" , and you can download a sample wav. file of one of the songs from my Music and Recordings homepage.

Art of Music Recording Studio I own and engineer "The Art of Music" sound studio in the Puna district of Hawaii. I help singer/songwriters as well as bands to record their original music in a professional environment with the latest in technological musical equipment.

Musical Connections Check out my Musical Connections page, where you can read about my friends and connections in the music world. Many of the bands I've been in over the years are mentioned here, as well as artists I have recorded in the studio. I also keep up to date with my current musical projects and you can read about them here.

Here's a link to my sonicbids electronic press kit (EPK) for anyone intetrested in booking my latest music project called Zaja Nada. Zaja Nada is a duo, Zahira and myself, with our backup band. We share all the singing and songwriting between the two of us. We're booked this summer for some dates on the west coast and we'll also be in New Mexico and Colorado for some summer gigs.

Poetry I write poetry and have participated in the Southeastern U.S. regional Poetry Slam as a member of the Roanoke, VA team. Some of my poetry posted on these pages has been published on other websites as well as some local print publications. I have a poem published in the Noble House poetry edition entitled Theater of the Mind. My poem called Wild Eyes is the very first poem in the book. They are also due to publish a poem of mine entitled The Poetry Of Love in an upcoming book of poetry. I have some poetry in the anthologies of poetry published by the International Library of Poetry and Poetry.com. My poem, Dancing In Our Dreams, is in their Winter 2001 edition, entitled "Nature's Echoes". I have also more recently had a poem published by Poetry.com in their edition entitled "Letters From the Soul" . The poem is called Wild Eyes and in a later publication entitled, "Eternal Portraits" with my poem, "Alphabetical Musings". Also published by Poetry.com has been my poem, Blue Moonlit Shadow. These three poems were also chosen to be on spoken word CD's. Also previously published is a poem featured in the Spring 2001 edition of "The Poet's Feast", a publication of Velvet Touch Press in Roanoke. In '05, I am now in Poetry.com's International Who's Who In Poetry with a poem entitled A Journey Back To Living Truth. Also newly published is my poem Has It Been That Long by Famous Poets.com in their upcoming Great Poems of the Western World. I've been invited to participate in their "Poet of the Year" Award Ceremony upcoming this fall of 2005 in Reno, NV. If you're interested in reading poetry and getting insights into my mental, emotional, and spiritual landscapes, check out my Poetry page.
Art Gallery I like to express myself as an artist and create geometric designs with spectral patterning. At present I have but a small sampling of the art online. Prints are available as well as originals. If your curiosity is piqued, please contact me about seeing a more expanded body of work and how to acquire these eyegasmic rainbow mandalas. Go to my Art Gallery if you'd like to see some of my paintings. `

Intentional Community I'm currently living in Puna on the big island of Hawaii. I have also lived in Floyd County, VA. Floyd has many "intentional communities" and a wonderful extended community of folks. I landed there in early '92 and felt "right at home". There's a kinship experienced that is rare in most places I experience. I have lived on and off in community living situations and this is often my chosen lifestyle. At the moment I am actively pursuing the dream of creating community with a group of other like-minded souls to manifest a place where folks can live close to the land and to each other in new and vibrant ways. We own 89 acres of land near Pahoa in the Puna district on the island of Hawaii. If you'd like to know more about community living, check out my web page on Intentional Communities.

Rainbow Family of Living Light I go every year to the national Rainbow Gatherings. For the uninitiated, these gatherings take place in a different national forest each year where thousands of us pitch tents, sometimes stay for weeks (or longer), participate in workshops, trade at the trading circle (no money is exchanged at the gathering), play music by the bonfires at night, help in the communal kitchens, and generally create moments of magic amongst our kinfolk... the depth of what one personally experiences at one of these gatherings is indescribable for the most part. I have met many a fine friend and eagerly anticipate meeting them again each year at this gathering of the tribes. People come from all over the country and sometimes other parts of the world and have been coming since 1972, when the first gathering took place in the mountains of Colorado.

UFO's and Government Coverups Since the 1970's, I've been studying the voluminous data available on the subject of the existence of humanoid life outside of our own terrestrial species. My conclusions steadfastly lead me to see, through a strong body of evidence, that indeed there is the likelihood of many races of beings that populate the cosmos. My studies have also led me to believe there is a consistent and clandestine coverup by government/military forces to suppress, deny, and deliberately falsify any information regarding the existence of extra-terrestrial beings or their spacefaring craft. This is a webpage I put together to help others get in touch with the information I've seen on the Internet having to do with the Ufo/Gov't. Cover-up Connection. I feel that being aware of this secret history is of utmost importance, not just to me, but to the welfare of humanity as a whole. The more I read and study this phenomenon, the stronger my conviction that the eventual exposure of this far-reaching web of deceit will lead to vast liberation from governmental excesses and oppression. It's not just time for our leaders to come clean about how much is kept from the general public concerning our own welfare but for the people themselves to recognize that all is not well with the state of affairs concerning the governance of nations and its populations. Information and knowledge are the great liberators and the Internet is a service provider to all of humanity in this way. The more we become aware of the injustices that abound, the sooner we can do something about them. You'll find a link to a different site for each term mentioned on this page. These links could keep you busy for many hours to come. Be forewarned! Go to my UFO page.

Honey, they're here!

Dreamspell Calendrics There is a movement for calendar reform going on around the world and it is closely aligned with the peace movement. The Gregorian calendar, of which now governs our timekeeping, was designed not for the observance of regular cycles throughout the year but to confuse people with highly irregular monthly periodicities. In the Gregorian calendar, the 9th month is named for the number 7, the 10th month is named for the number 8, the 11th month is named for the number 9, the 12th month is named for the number 10 and The 1st, 7th and 8th months are named after Roman emperors. Some of our weekdays are named after ancient gods of war. I've been studying the Mayan cosmology, including the Mayan calendar known as the Tzolkin. This calendar has a periodicity of 260 days, containing all possible permutations of 13(tones) by 20(glyphs). The Mayans also had a lunar calendar of thirteen 28 day cycles plus one day out of time and a solar calendar of 364.242036 days - with an astonishing accuracy of less than 3/10,000ths of 1 day less than the presently accepted measurement of the completion of one rotation of the Earth around the Sun. The 260 day calendar was the sacred calendar and coincided with galactic and earthly synchronous rhythms. Each day had a certain quality depending on the combination of a Tone and a Glyph. Dr. Arguelles studied and reinterpreted these to create the Dreamspell Calendar - a modern, updated version of the classic Mayan sacred calendar. For more detailed information on all of this, see my tutorial on the Dreamspell Calendar.
Quotes of Authors I have a web page devoted entirely to Quotes of authors of my favorite books. Most of what you'll find here is of a philosophic and spiritual nature, which, for me, is often the most sensible, practical, and inspiring reminders of the principles of living a balanced life. These are all culled from an ongoing notebook I have been keeping for years. I often look them over myself to remember how precious life really is. Think of it like shell collecting; looking for little pearls of wisdom like beautiful shells that please the eye. Come down to the shores by the trails of the sage and breathe in the gentle sprays from the fountains of the wise.

Fotos of 
Friends and Family Here's some web pages with Photos of people in my life (including myself). My son, my friends, old band photos, babies, visits with Tibetan monks, my family, me when i was younger, nature shots, Rainbow Gathering, drum circle, weird rock...you never know what might show up on my photo pages.

Internet Links Here's a list of my favorite Links, including many on science, the cosmic perspective, intentional communities, alternative building, music resources, animated gifs, map atlas, weather cams and various other things I've bookmarked along the way. There's links to tarot, MIDI files, botany, chat rooms, libraries, earth ships, search engines, clip art, land trusts, songwriters, weird science, strawbale and more. Surf the Net!

Earth Changes Have you noticed a shift in the weather patterns where you live? Global weather patterns are changing course due in part to shifting magnetic poles, solar flux, and the continuing erosion of and damage to the biosphere. Read a lot more about it on my webpage on Earth Changes. Here you can hear about some of the latest finds in science, predictions about our near future, and what you can do to prepare for what might lie ahead. You'll find information on pole shifts, global warming, volcanoes, the sun, polar ice cap melting and more.


Let's go for a ride!

Monorails Take a ride to my webpage on Monorails. This is about the future of transportation - an energy efficient and environmentally clean method of travel. One day in the near future you'll be falling asleep in your car instead of driving it. Find out all the things about monorails you never wanted to know.

HovercraftI published a webpage on my idea for innovative travel of the future via Hovercraft controlled by a Global Positioning Satellite, more commonly known by its acronym - the GPS. Hovercraft don't need roads to ride upon; they glide through the air. Hop in and go for a spin in my anti-gravity car from the future.

Sekaya's 
Home PageHere's some words from my son, Sekaya (aka Cid), who enjoys playing on the computer just as much as I do. He publishes his own webpage and has started to author webpages for others as well. Sekaya works with the Macromedia Flash program as well as Dreamweaver and does some very impressive webpage construction.

ball If you're interested in knowing more about me personally, see my Personal page.

ball And if you're really a curious person (like I am), check out my Family and Friends page. I'll tell you all about my family and there are plenty of links to webpages maintained by people I know. Go ahead and visit with some of my friends and tell them I sent you.


Aummmmmmmmmmmm...

Gaden Jangtse Monastery Tibetan monks from the Gaden Jangtse monastery visited the Roanoke/Blacksburg area of southwestern Virginia in January of 1998. I was fortunate enough to be able to host them for six days. The opportunity of having them here was a life-changing experience. They had three sold-out shows and we're ready to see them again. I await their return to infuse their unique signature of wisdom and balance in the Western World. To find out more about their unique presentation, check out my webpage on them.

Tashi Lhunpo Monastery I once again have been given the fortunate experience to host monks from Tibet here in southwest Virginia. The monks of the Tashi Lhunpo monastery presented their sacred monastic performance on October 26th, 2002 at the Unity Church of Roanoke. I was asked to help facilitate bringing them to Roanoke because of my previous experience in having them here a few years back. The monks had heard of me from the previous visit of the Gaden Jangtse monastery and presented to me in their ceremony at the church a white silk scarf, a woven wallhanging, and some Tibetan herbal medicine.

Music Theory TutorialI've written a webpage that is a music tutorial with sound. You can hear intervals, scales, and chords played via MIDI files. The page is far from exhaustive in its scope but it might just help you to begin to understand the underlying concepts of music theory. If you like it and want to see more, let me know. If I get enough feedback (not the kind from an amplifier), I'll work on extending the range of this Music Theory Tutorial.

Freedance This is a webpage all about dancing. From Contact Improvisation to Yogadance, and from Barefoot Boogie to Trance Dance, you'll find out all about the art of Freedance. Dancing is an expression of one's soul. When you begin to tune into the rhythms of your body, you get in touch with your inner ecstasy. Dance on over to my Freedance page and learn about these exhilirating dance forms and what it's all about.


Elberon Ranch Here you'll find the story of the Elberon Ranch, a 30 some acre nature preserve and horse farm in the heart of the city of Long Branch, NJ. It was a commune style residence for many of us who lived there over the years. A legend on the Jersey Shore and a haven for local musicians, including some now famous ones, the Ranch has now been bulldozed by a building developer. I lived there for over 7 years in the '80's and '90's. You can see some pictures of this magical haven and read about its history. The Ranch's existence is now threatened by commercial development. There are many who would like to see this remain undeveloped and used instead for a city park to be enjoyed by everyone.

Back DoorHere's the Back Door to my website. This'll give you a choice of wild send-offs into the backwaters of Internet webpages when you're done looking at everything here. Be adventurous!

Front DoorIf you came into my website at another entry point other than my Front Door you might want to see my opening page. Set your bookmark here to come back and visit with me again and again as I'm always updating these webpages. Experience the boundaries of cosmic exploration and take a ride beyond the Federation Limit.




11/08/06Wheehah! Yet another update on my dreamspell page. Basically, I clarified the section of the text explaining the patterns of the Tones as they are interspersed throughout the Tzolkin grid. Do you want to know just exactly what I'm talking about? Check it out on my
Dreamspell page.

10/18/06 Whoop-de-doo! I have finally started a webpage for my band called Peace Tribe. There's some pictures of the band, info on our music, and a list of the members that, at one time or another, have either performed gigs with us or contributed to the recordings. I'll be updating this page as time goes on but I'm glad to have finally gotten it out there. Take a look and let me know what you think. Eventually I'll list our upcoming gigs, instead of posting them after the fact on my Musical Connections page. I know it's got a ways to go but all in due time, eh?

5/01/06 Woowee! I just added a new webpage. As an addendum to my Elberon Ranch webpage, you can read some of the
Responses and Letters I got from those who have known about "the Ranch" over the many years it was in existence. It was well known and well loved by many and I relish the stories that have been related to me and now I want to share them with you. If you remember the Ranch, I'd love to hear your stories and find them a place on the growing recollections of this magical haven that once was in Long Branch on the Jersey Shore.

11/27/05 Whoopee!, You can now find the guiding power for the Mayan Calendar dates on page 3 of my Dreamspell Calendar Tutorial. I'll show you the math, it's fairly straightforward and there's some examples to help you find yours. So go ahead and check it out while you're here.

8/8/05 Whoosh! I just added a new webpage to my site. When you go to a Rainbow Gathering, it's important to bring everything you'll need to be comfortable as you can to camp for the time you plan to be there. In my case, that's often up to two weeks so I made a list I check before I leave. You can access it from my Rainbow Gathering webpage or just click on it from here to get to my new Rainbow List webpage.

6/6/05 Well, if you've been to my poetry pages before and enjoyed what you found, you might want to go back and have another look now because I've revamped them, deleting many poems that had been there for years and adding many never before published. Page 4 is entirely new. So stroll on over to my Poetry pages for a generous serving of fresh poeticisms.

6/6/05 Whew! I've been busy. You'll find updates on the Freedance page, as well as some minor and not so minor tweaks on the Community and Musical Connections webpages mentioned immediately below.

6/4/05 Whoa, I have finally gotten to updating my Community page. Find out what's going on in Puna, Hawaii on the 89 acres of land we have recently purchased to live in community.

6/1/05 Wow! The new one everyone has been waiting for, page 5 of the Dreamspell Calendar Tutorial. Do you really want to know what all the noise is about the year 2012? What does the Precession of the Equinoxes have to do with the Mayan calendar? Just what is the Road to Xibalba? I assure you, it's not the latest furry creature from Star Wars.

5/28/05 Woohoo! I've got a new page on Government Control of the News Media but it's buried somewhere inside my website. I can't give away the exact location but I can give you a hint. It's only accessible from a page that's only accessible from one other page, which in turn is only accessible from a select few of my many webpages. It's a sleuthing adventure.

5/20/05Whoops! My email account was hacked into and I lost this account and all my contacts. If you need to email me, do so at my new email account at "[email protected]". I never heard of this happening before and it's most likely very rare but sometimes we get lucky. Some people win the lottery, other get their email account hacked into. Just my luck.

5/20/05 Whee! If you haven't already seen it, go on over to my Musical Connections page and check out the latest news on my band, Peace Tribe, and read about our musical adventures.

5/14/05 I've added a bunch of new links to find information regarding the Mayan Calendar. Find out the Mayan sign for your birthday or find out what today is in the Mayan galactic timekeeping device, the Tzolkin calendar.

5/11/05 There are some new links to friends I've added to my Family and Friends page.

There are also lots of new links I've added to my Rainbow Gatherings page. Just tons of cool stuff to explore.
