The Chronicles of Mania is a mixed-media documentary about Bipolar 1 Disorder, specifically how it has affected my life and family. It is the first major publication of Manic Dreams Network and delivers a formally inaccessible experience by way of mixed-media and perspective.

I needed accessibility, control, and versatility; the « Continue Reading »
"What I must do is all that concerns me, not what the people think. This rule, equally arduous in actual and in intellectual life, may serve for the whole distinction between greatness and meanness. It is the harder, because you will always find those who think they know what is your duty better than you know it. It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the « Continue Reading »

The first publication of this piece is on the "Meet Justin" page of The Chronicles of Mania under the link "squirrels." There are two levels of meaning: the first level is my simple fascination with squirrels--I like them a lot-- the second level adds the concept of "Thanks for Knowing." The two levels interact and are not to be separated « Continue Reading »
If I told you I was going to reinvent the English language... would you call me manic? What is 3nglish™? 3nglish is the reinvented framework of the English language; it is specifically designed for 21st Century users. It does have manic roots but the legitimacy of this work is even greater than The Chronicles of Mania. The word 3nglish is pronounced "Thring-glish," a sound derived from 3Dimensional linguistic perspective. I don't want to say much because who « Continue Reading »
