StrangeTango.com is a multilayered art installation in cyberspace…the documentation of a life in three iterations: as a film treatment, a book, a blog.
“What remains as documentation of a life?”

Video, reportage, and nonlinear narrative meld in captured moments from the life of A. D. Tejada, artist - traveler - citizen of the world.
Life is a strange tango...

My Neo-Zen garden.
Throughout literature, the garden has represented sanctuary. Voltaire’s world-weary Candide retired to cultivate his garden, contented with the philosophy of living a simple life, “all is for the best in the best of all possible worlds.” The gardens I have cultivated in our various homes have always been contemplative spaces, an escape [...]

Colonel Rodrigo Mariano, M.D., is Board Certified as a Diplomate of the American Board of Internal Medicine Physicians and is [...]
My currency is creativity, ideas, and innovation. For me as a writer/artist, the process of writing a book is the process of creating a work of art. Given the upheaval in the publishing industry and the cross-platform promotion of content—in a world that is becoming increasingly impermanent—I can foresee a time when the concept of [...]
The salon at our operatic home in Windham, New Hampshire, an exurb of Boston.

Athima Chansanchai, Tima Media
I was off the grid until I arrived on the social media scene just over six months ago, and Athima Chansanchai is one of my first cyber friends. I first noticed Athima when she joined the Strange Tango fan/friend page on Facebook, leaving thoughtful comments on my posts. I was impressed [...]
