Dimension 1 : the meaning of your name Terence means smooth (That’s what my mother told me @vickie.am.i ) What does yours mean? I directed the first episode with this question on my consciousness. What does the meaning of my name guide me towards in the cultivation of my character? Clearly. I need to smooth it all out at this point. Malidoma talked about the meaning of his name in - to make friend with the stranger - how it guided his path. Also. Another question. Did y’all get up and invoke the ritual of the show as instructed? If not you can start over. I’m telling you. It’ll hit different. That was dimension 1. DIMENSION 3 and 4 tonight. ………………………………. In no particular order. - me closer to the day I was named - me in front of my first paintings from high school I think - clips and photos from the episode. - Union sq. Summer 2013.

Reflecting on what was thought to be the last @sundanceorg in Park City after years of gathering in the snow, I wrote a piece for @talkhouse on my experience of the festival over the years. This year’s line up had gems like Kahlil Joseph’s @blknws , @latajh and Aurora Brachman’s Hold Me Close, and Isiah Saxton’s The Legend of Ochi. Check it out. Many thanks to @criticalminded_community for supporting the piece and my editor Nick Dawson at the Talkhouse. 📝
