Jeremiah's Story
Life
i hated high school. that was no one's fault but my own. oh, yeah, and i was a big homo but was too petrified to come out in an all boys catholic school. i fit the archetype too perfectly. even my suffering wasn't original.
college was a complete beginning for me, which i did in atlanta. amazing time, full of every possible experience, reinvention, and learning. life was in full tilt, and i boogied a lot.
after undergrad i partied, traveled, partied, traveled, moved to the mountains of north carolina to drink whiskey and write, and learned a little bit more along the way.
next move was the desert of california, where i did my masters in critical studies at calarts. this was more about learning new modes of inquiry than about myself. i fell in love more with the geography of california than the school itself.
now i'm ...Expand for more
in los angeles, in hollywood's heart, trying to find my own. I am now professor of cultural studies at the art institute of california and professor of theatre at cal state university-LA. los angeles isn't my favorite place, but the possibilities are endless here, and the disparate, yet eclectic art scene is fascinating, to say the least.
i am whimsical about my growing up, as it seems to recede into more a fable than memory. there have been so many changes, that i don't know if i would recognize that kid in high school, but i'm fascinated to meet up with him again just to see what kind of advice i'd profer now.
i wonder, of the kids who barreled through the red carpet, who has moved into the sceptor of distance? i haven't talked with a single person from gibbons since november of 1994. remember when 15 years was inconceivable?
