Introduction Plaedo makes art because his heart beats. And to live in the rhythm of his heart beat is to seek harmony to move with the grooves, that are in-tune with nature. In this quest Plaedo loves his people, raps about rainbows in oil spills, plays piano to the sound of rain, drums for pagans, stands on soap boxes to perform spoken word, edutain’s through street theater, writes essay’s for magazines, grows gardens, teaches at the School of Hard Knocks, laughs at his mistakes, and smiles at strangers on the street. For the globe is his home, humanity is his family, and love is his religion.
