BioDome

"I first came out here in the early '70s, lured by the hippie eco techno worldview embodied by the Whole Earth Catalog. I joined a friend in an attempt to build a dome in a field up in Napa County. I eventually lost focus on the dome project and ended up busking with another friend on the streets of Berkeley -- he played accordiaon, I played violin and ukulele and struck ironic poses. It was successful. I realized at that time I was more interested in irony than utopia."
