Goddess Kring is releasing music projects on interactive jack records in collaboration with producer and musician, Supaflower. They cover a lot of territory including pop, rock, experimental, acapella poems, heavy rock, new wave, and even jazz. The poems are otherworldly with interesting editing and studio effects. The pop tracks are instantly accessible yet have unique timing, melodies and forms of rhythmic displacement that is unlike other pop music. The rock tracks border on new wave and her speaking voice has both drama and coolness, the perfect combo.

Goddess KRING t shirt and Collage will be at Folklife Festival Seattle 2025

 

Here's my new Goddess Kring t-shirt and the collage I made printed onto canvas that got into the folklife festival in seattle may 23-26th 2025. I was also with my art car for a paid party event but I had to sign a non-disclosure agreement so I can't really share photos. I'm waiting to hear if I can share photos later on in the future. it was a private party for a company and they booked me and another Art Car person for a special event... it was really quite interesting and very beautifully done. Will share about it when I find out what's possible in sharing... I'm just grateful to be involved in so many creative projects with my artwork! my acting, my comedy, my music, my art car, my visual art, mu poetry, all the different things that I do working with caring for animals, working with medical students and working with artists who draw the model. I am very very blessed and very very grateful for all the creative opportunities that I'm involved with as I continue to navigate how I heal and grow and learn -find more inner strength and individuate, drop the past be in the present etc. i also met with a doc film maker about my movie ideas. not sure where thats going but good to be open and talk movies with people in the industry. might do my own doc film about "Goddess KRING" or might find others who want to do this with me? or might never do the movie at all? who knows. i do want to write a book/memoir poetic book about my life "checkerboard childhood" part of my working title. amplified chameleon getting her dreams on etc. i keep writing comedy ideas down for my stand up comedy class! fun fun.

beyond duality

beyond duality
Part of why I want to do comedy is because that's a way of expressing myself in a therapeutic way and breaking rules and being rebellious without getting myself in trouble... because I'm actually quite angry and disturbed by what I think is a multi-level manipulation campaign... ironically people argue about what's true and false and I think some of the people that argue the hardest about what is true and what is false are the most manipulated and fooled and buy into the shadows on the wall instead of the real thing ...but I think that is by design... so comedy comedy comedy bring it On let's be funny! let's build bridges and not walls against each other etc find a way to connect with community without getting myself ostracized and humor might be one way to do that if that's not too honest for me to say this I know that comedy and tragedy is the flip side of one coin

I try to outsmart the gas lighters like that song that I wrote It's called outsmart the gaslighters and I wrote another song called polarized landscape about current times and I wrote another song that is called cancel culture vulture virtue signal soldiers and I think a lot of people are may or may not even be listening to what I'm saying in those lyrics but if they do they may or may not understand the point that I'm trying to make and let's face it nobody wants to be ostracized including me... being ostracized does not feel good... and it's part of our survival mechanism to not want to be completely demonized and ostracized from the human group that were in... I try to figure out how to build bridges with people and get away from the walls that people are putting up around each other. I know that I don't want to segregate myself from other kinds of people that think differently than me... so I'm trying to keep my mind open and not stereotype other people and when other people are stereotyping me I'm trying to just ignore it and move on and forgive them for being so narrow-minded or whatever... caught up in fear to the point where they feel like they have to stereotype other people. I very much relate to this video although I'm frustrated that I don't actually know how to speak my truth and stand up for myself and when people criticize me and tell me I'm wrong I feel like I'm on trial and I am not necessarily good at defending my right to have a different opinion than the cliche sound bites that people regurgitate and labeling who are the good people and who are the bad people... I see it in a totally different way... I see all the nuances and all the layers and how fake people are with each other actually and that they just want to feel safe... they don't really want to know the full on truth and yet that's what people mostly argue about these days is what is true and what is false and I think that we're having psychological warfare inflicted upon us.
Why Society Rejects the Truly Intelligent | Schopenhauer
I think that certain things have been hijacked and people are being manipulated and really more complicated ways than they even realize that a lot of really well-meaning people are saying and doing certain things but I don't think they're seeing that the manipulation is more clever than that. I just want to acknowledge the creepy feeling I have... like I know that these social media sites are mostly used to share superficial information- but I suppose we are allowed to be political activists on these sites if we have the correct cliche opinion and we demonize anybody who disagrees with us... it's like a form of psychological warfare that people are putting each other through and policing each other's thoughts. these days it is very creepy to live in a culture where I truly feel like I'm not safe in saying what my real opinions are... because when you say something that's not the cliche and pick side a or pick side b people jump on you and criticize you and I just want to point out I don't feel comfortable saying what my real opinions are here but I do feel comfortable expressing the frustration and the psychological disorienting what is it called cognitive dissonance of realizing that humans are being trained to only think they can pick box a or box b and not actually question the indoctrination of thinking that we're a good person if we think one thing and we're a bad person if we think something else and it makes me think of the stories of the Brave New World and 1984 and Plato's allegory of the cave is an allegory.
