Most people won’t admit something when it’s wrong, the fish will pay when something is wrong but they won’t know what. Repression of a need creates an inconsistency; professionals have poisoned their love for field with business; Future insured, the future costs, we’ll have a future anyway, in what way: healthy; consciousness, integrity of life, blame for being unsatisfied by something which doesn’t satisfy; building as tool individuals would have to know that desire about places they life;

After producing the first Earth Day and co-founding and producing Earth Day two (where U-Thant signed the proclamation declaring Earth Day an international holiday) we created and built the loft, housing Laboratories for Metaphoric Environments (LME) on Manhattan’s east sixty eight street just across form Avadon’s (the world famous fashion photographer) studios and in a building owned by Mr. Fernandez who ran a high end commercial bakery (baking bread for hotels and restaurants such as Hotel Pierre, Waldorf Astoria, Essex House, Plaza Hotel, etc.) on the ground floor. In Union Square I had met Adam Alexander who at the time was special assistant to Mayor Lindsay. Adam lived on the West Side and had several doctorates in mathematics. He somehow decided to collaborate with me to form LME and so from 1971 till 1973 (when we left New York for Jackson Tennessee) we had conversations which I documented with words and sketches.
