Hi fellow hippie kids. I was on Tribe for a while, but then dropped off when I got really busy. Back now.

I wanted you all to know about a documentary I made last summer about my hippie family. More about dropping back in, then dropping out.

I'm interested in how active this tribe is? And/or if there are other gathering places for people raised by hippies?

I'm at NYU now, back in grad. School at Tisch's Interactive Telecom program. My thesis next year will probably be hippie kids and involve media and interactivity.

I'd love to start a dialog with people interested in this. I can create a Webspace in the coming months for posting media. I was thinking it would be great to take advantage of the Web 2.0 video capabilities and interview ourselves, or post media, to a free hosting site like www.blip.tv that allows cross posting and permanent links with video conversion and standardization.

This would happen slowly over the next year. Eventually I'm exploring the idea of an area for video on this subject. Maybe we all answer the same questions, leading to a sort of "place" on the Web for information about our experiences that could then lead to edited down media that encapsulates the major themes.

We are a rare thing in society and lots of parents, and potential parents, out there could be enlightened by our self-explorations. Sometimes it seems to me like we are part of a daring experiment in child rearing, but we don't know the results...

- Peace.
