Plainly: essays, field logs, and a book in progress — Buddhism & Things. The dossier act is just for fun; the writing isn’t. A couple of pieces are open to read below — the rest available on request.
Recovered logs from an eight-month surface-vessel expedition. Photographic evidence. Recovered short fiction. Witness contributions from [ N A M E S W I T H H E L D ].
The vessel departed [ H A R B O R ] on a Tuesday and did not file return papers for two hundred and forty-three days.
A book of essays in progress. Each one takes a thing in the world — a desert walk, a forest, a bowl of tea, an oracle, a coin, a cat — and lets Buddhism move through it until something clarifies, or further confuses.
A few are open to read here; the rest are in the works and available on request.
Eight-page comic produced by Mobile Steam Unit, art by Emily Krohn. Patrick served as [ B A N D M E M B E R ] and editor on the project — script wrangling, panel notes, final cuts.
Filed under WRITING because the work was, in part, written; filed under MUSIC because the band drew it out of itself; filed under [ G O W A N U S ] because that's where the sludge mystery begins.
