Storytelling as Inquiry

Godly Delusions

A woman with child found an ascetic outside her home, the unkempt 

man dressed in rags appeared to be meditating next to her door steps. 

Understanding his sacred duty she did not dare disturb him, but as the woman 

was coming down the steps her foot slipped, and down she landed on top of 

The impulse to find a place of belonging somewhere within in the vastly complex and diverse societies of the world, for me, appears as a subtle, yet constant tug on the outskirts of my consciousness.  This daunting sensation is one that seems to linger within the unconscious tendencies of individuals of all backgrounds and beliefs, for every culture develops an array of subcultures and countercultures, and sometimes even sub-subcultures and counter-countercultures. The punk rock scene is no exception to this pattern. It arose within a subculture, forming its own counterculture, which then spurred the creation of multiple subcultures that, in turn, gave rise to

Connecting Through an Unconscious Reality

When I first auditioned for Doctor Faustus Lights the Lights, I had no idea what to expect. From what I had read, the play seemed a little strange, and from what I had heard about the theater department, Mark Lord was going to do something completely crazy with it. But I’m always up for a challenge, and once I got into the cast, I committed myself one hundred percent to the work. But something just wasn’t clicking.

Our Biases

Corey Arterian

By popular request, I've uploaded to Serendip the good doctor Pentagon's article on the mating habits of his fellow Flatlanders. Enjoy!

I wrote the attatched essay as a response to Abbott's Flatland, a novella that's risen to cult status among math geeks everywhere. Flatland is at once an exploration into the geometry of higher dimensions, a commentary on classism, and a dark caricature of Victorian prudishness and misogyny. But the one thing that Abbott never mentioned was sex. How would geometrical figures reproduce? Would they enjoy it? And what about sexuality itself-- is it as variable in two dimensions as it is in our three?
