What was my Hollywood experience like?

January 15, 2023
Very difficult if I was not among like-minded rule-breaking creatives. We stayed on the 17th floor of a tired Holiday Inn. I think we had the floor to ourselves, reminding me of The Shining with Jack Nicholson. Due to strict covid precautions, our key cards were taken. We were to stay isolated in our rooms except during filming. To ensure compliance, we had hallway police. If we wanted a cup of coffee, they escorted us down 17 floors and back. After one night, the creatives were having no more of that – day 2, we started planning our escape. Paranoid that mics and cameras were secretly embedded, a few of us flipped over a mattress, disassembled a room phone, and took down a few vent covers to ensure our plans or need for social contact were not being listened to. Nothing found, so nightly masked parties began in the fire escape stairwell. Not sure how it was done, but party stuff got smuggled up and past the hall police. It was the nightly storytelling and peeks into the other contestants’ backgrounds and design philosophies that got us thru long days in front of cameras on cold sets with milquetoast lunches.

OUR DESIGN PHILOSOPHY 

is rooted in past-to-present experiences. Since youth, our journey has been enriched through spiritual teachings that shape the lens through which we view, understand, and interact with today’s world of art and design. The centerpiece of that learning is peace – living in harmony with oneself and the natural laws governing our earthly home is vital to its acquirement. 

When we invite this blueprint into our lifestyle, we also embrace harmony for ourselves, including our surroundings—taking our way of life to a higher realm.
