// A Study of Dualism - 2013
In the history of thought, the idea that the mind and body are separate has been hotly debated. Probably the most famous statement of mind/body dualism is from the philosopher René Descartes, who in the 17th century argued that there are two different kinds of stuff in the world: stuff extended in space (such as chairs, computers, and human bodies) and stuff which lacks extension but somehow exists as an immaterial substance (the human mind).
“There is a great difference between mind and body, inasmuch as body is by nature always divisible, and the mind is entirely indivisible.”
how do you understand the body and the mind? both as matter and in the perception of others.. Pay attention to the mind and the minds of those around you, it’s easy to be shallow and let the body fool and distract you

I’ve been too busy organizing support for a proposed homeless shelter in Koreatown to post any photos, but here are some beautiful medium format photos taken by a really cool neighbor and friend I made!
He’s an old-school 70s punk who hasn’t lost his sense of rebellion even now. I’m so honored to have these protests documented with real black and white film. Check out his photobook project:
