Watch the video!

When I tell people about my good friend who was attacked by a crazy man with a knife, they always ask with alarm, "Where did it happen?" When I reply, "Sixth and Lincoln", a quiet block in a tony Brooklyn neighorhood Park Slope, they say, "Sixth and Lincoln? Sixth and Lincoln!" I guess they are upset and try to connect that fact to something. Maybe they don't know what else to say?

Or maybe it's a way for them to remember to look out when they walk on Sixth Avenue. I just don't know, but everyone says it.

I wish they would just say, "I'm so sorry your friend was attacked. Is she okay?"

The concept for the video series, "Ricochet: Thought to Idea," is pretty simple. I shoot images and match them with my spoken-word pieces: funny stories about something that really happened, or an abstract concoction of things that bounce through my mind. They're little art videos that make you think. (By the way, what are you thinking right now?)
