Subscribe for a glimpse into a world forgotten by time and sterilized memory: a diary unearthed from the concrete hell of Alphabet City, where dreams broke against needles and shadows stretched long over crumbling squats - the real East Village as we lived and loved it. Teenage Weimar is a sound installation created from excerpts from my autobiography underscored with my musical compositions. These are the words of a teenage runaway caught in the undertow of a collapsing city. Civilization was dying. I was living in a burned out squat between Ave. C and D. No water. No electricity. No phone. No heat. No locks.
What follows is a snapshot of the wreckage. There were thousands of runaway kids in Alphabet City. I’m one of the very few that survived to adulthood. Press play, and step inside.
