Fighting ourselves

On April 20th, Big Al and I shot our two actors Ken Cypert and Ian Phillips as Tweetle Dee and Tweetle Dumb characters on a playground in Soho. We imagined them as school yard bullies, brothers, twins, who unable to express themselves and their desire for one another as so often happens in patriarchial war culture, they turned their aggression to each other and outside sources. I truly believe that our enemy, the shadow if you will, that we harbor in ourselves is often projected onto others and most often reflects that thing we see in ourselves that most terrifyies us in relationship to our own desires. That which we abhor is often that which we most secretly desire.
