I had to scroll back. Surf his years old Testimonials.
I wasn't sure I'd already wrote one and was abashed that I hadn't!
I mean...he has been a part of my life for years.
(When was that, fko; that I won 'Fucko of the year'?)
We have talked on the phone. Been to Burningman. Raised kids. Served.
The usual life crap.
Why am I writing this?! A Testimonial likely to not be accepted?!!
Well...it's simple.
This is not only a good man (in my opinion), this is an extraordinary man!
From his incessant posts on Tribe.net in the face of adversary and attacks; to consistently build community, each and every time I see him write, reach out, trust...
fko, Fucko, or Bryan; is an extraordinary man.
And I don't use that word lightly!

Bryan is a real man, an adult male, not some kid just goofing off like me. He is like one of those greatest generation WWII guys, He is a soldier, an artist, a builder, a dad, a responsible human being who cares about the world and the future. He actually likes kids... how weird and awesome is that? Even though he is a true gem of a man he thinks he is ordinary and relates to shmoes like me. If I were in a truly fucked up situation I'd want Bryan on my team.

about me
I am a completely non spiritual / life celebrating / art activist who takes great pleasure in thwarting over-seriousness, puesdo-importantance, assumptive rightouseness, entitlement and ownership.
I engage myself against comsumerism, entertainment based living and weapons of mass distraction and disinformation by using snark and silly and ironisim to creatively express hypocracies, social evils and careless social oversights.
I find my own self importance in resisting my urge to be apathetic towards my culture, and instead try taking both real and intellectual actions that I hope make the world a better place for me, by making it a better place for all.
Time will tell all.
I don't want to go on about any of this but I took some drugs a few weeks ago and I had a starteling experience that I can only describe as a Brainstorm. Not the kind where people sit around a table and be as creative as they can be, but the kind that makes your brain feel like a giant storm is brewing electronicly.
It spun all my nuerons in a way that I re-lived many of my childhood experiences and have a fresh memory of things that have been long away from my consciousness. It was like...

“The afterglow of Burningman is a lot like sex, only there is more of a mess after Burningman.”
I’m writing this because I hope to be more than a person who talks before an event and once they have their fill, keeps the experience for themselves without any concern for the community at large and what it means to reflect on something that will ultimate take it’s toll on our relationship. It smells like being an entertainment whore to me. So I write. My own stream of consciousness, tends ...

And it is with utmost respect of her and her unique awesomeness that I entend th e following text in the spirt of grwoing more understanding.
So basicly what I'd like to convey that I think a t lot of people misread fkoism, and maybe, if I may, a lot of actions and intentions done by me and mine.
Promise mentioned that she read my manifesto to be more about triggers. (after explainin...

Evolution of a Radical Advocate
Interview with the Renegade artist known as Fko was conducted on June 14th .
By Jammy Mammy
JM~ Last year, instead of going to Burning Man you sent blow up doll in your stead. What were you trying to prove?
FKO~ I was trying to illuminate the relationship with the concept of a Burner and the concept of a individual person. I was exploring the mindset of various people attending the festival towards other burners. Because I am know as a “character” I ...
