Project 5am is about capturing and following the essence of being in the moment. It is an interdisciplinary project which can be viewed as a celebration of creativity or as a 3 year old diary of exploring a moment of enlightenment. The allusive aspect of the site reflects the Allen Ginsberg poem "5am" that it was inspired from and the mystic of the people, stories and philosophies that I have encountered on my journey. The aim is for the reader to connect with references that are on the site and put into their own context because questions answers life. 5am is an eternal project that has given me so much joy, growth and knowledge and I hope that it gives people the same yellow feeling like it has given me.......come, drink , live.

"Orange is red brought nearer to humanity by
yellow."- Wassily Kandinsky
Music is a moral law. It gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind,
flight to the imagination, a charm to sadness, gaiety and life to everything.
It is the essence of order, and leads to all that is good, just and beautiful,
of which it is the invisible, but nevertheless dazzling, passionate,
and eternal form.
- Plato
"When I was little I had a theory that you should draw a picture using all the colors except yellow, making it as good as you could, and then, finally, after giving up, you should add yellow. And yellow had the magical property of instantly making everything come alive, it was light itself, and thus the picture came into being. Mike Andrews' score was the yellow for this movie."
- Miranda July talking about the soundtrack for Me You And Everybody We Know
Roaring dreams take place in a perfectly silent mind.
Now that we know this,
throw the raft away.- Jack Kerouac
"God sleeps in stone, breathes in plants, dreams in animals, and awakens in man"
- Hindu Proverb
You must understand the whole of life, not just one little part of it.
That is why you must read,
That is why you must look at the skies,
That is why you must sing and dance, and write poems
And suffer and understand, for all that is life.
-Jiddu Krishnamurti
"Energy is the only life and is from the Body and
Reason is the bound or outward circumference of
Energy. Energy is Eternal Delight". - William Blake
