First Entry

I live in Madrid, Spain. I am from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada.

Madrid is faster to write when you do paperwork, which is it's principal advantage over Saskatoon.

There is however much more paperwork.

I am a circus artist, graduate of L'ecole nationale de cirque de Montreal.

I have married a Spanish girl, and I am here for a while. As an immigrant, I have spent a lot of time looking at Spain's dirty laundry, but somehow I still like the place.

I am working on a new show, Perception and Deception, dealing with the psychology of deception and the limits of perception. I have my first show the 14th of Dec.

My previous shows include Vaudeville Negro, which sounds a bit too Al Jolson in the English language, if you can read Spanish, try www.vaudevillenegro.com , which I still perform and the better named "To Be 2", with Dirk Van Boxelaere (see www.dirque.com) which we no longer perform.

That is what I do, and what I had better get back to doing right now.

Later.

Matt
