Okay. Amazing. This is an incredible interview. Heck of a friendship. Maybe the whole purpose of art? Definitely going to watch your movie clip next.

If Carlos Castaneda came back to life in LA for one night with his blood infused with Roman cement, showed up to one of your improvisation shows, asked to hang out that night, spoke of the magic of eternal self-embedding in art, dried out starting at his extremities, crushed and mixed his powdery remains, sharing his final (final) memories and cautions with you from the spiritual wisdom he gleaned from his alleged guide, Don Juan Matos, on a bench outside of a taco truck, leading to Kafka prayers bought online, (summarily snuck in by the owner of the taco truck where you both ate said tacos), it wouldn’t be more zany or heartfelt.

Both a deeply kind sentiment and a deeply Guy Craig way to say it. I’ll share with Diogo too and I’m sure he’ll he touched.

Watched “New Brothers,” and it is excellent. Completely gonzo. Maximalist (not sure if that is the right term), but definitely Army of Darkness level humor.
