2024: i’m focussing on healing.

woof 2021-2023 have been rough for me personally. i ain’t the only one and i know i’m not special in this. i know as many others do too that this healing is one + the same with collective liberation. i’m getting free, looking deep into the darkness of my fears. simply by being in this liminal space, i’m giving others permission to do the same. in every conversation. in every moment where i catch myself in an old groove, acting out the dance of inherited trauma.

I AM JUST ONE DOOR OUT OF WHICH OUR SPECIES’ TRAUMA IS DANCING

IT’S A LIFE-LONG PROCESS

i’m loving every moment of it (even the shitty bits)

but yeah, don’t expect the same old maddy to pop out the other end of this birth canal. 🦅

Video filmed in Montreal by the brilliant Romain Marie-Aubrey!

The Old River … Source … Godstuff … God … Science … Music … Truth … Wisdom … It has many names

And I’ve been searching for it in all the wrong places my whole life. This song is a prayer to that old river. Help me surrender! To feel the hard feelings. Not to numb or stuff them. Not to act them out. Not to keep running away. It’s so simple but SO counter to what we’re swimming in.

This is a cover of Mia Pixley’s song “Watering” (part of a series I did in 2020 + 2021 covering songs by independent artists driven by that same kind of fierce love for humanity that i feel and am driven by… our BIG WHY. Contrary to what we’re told… we’re not supposed to know exactly how to get there on our own. I reject individualism and know-it-all-ism and the idea of who’s right and who’s wrong, and

I embrace the irresistible power of

collective imagination.

this video was filmed 10 years ago. the song inspired by the IDLE NO MORE movement and indigenous wisdom of interdependence and connection. a deep love for the water that moves through all of us, that was with me in every cell since the day i was born and will carry me to the Great Ocean the day i die.

Video recorded by Dream Brand Studios. Audio recorded by Nigel Brown. Mixed by Coyote Hearing Studios. Video edited by Madeline Tasquin.
