competed Melt Away while undergoing a dark, deep experience with depression,

existential despair and with new tears for old grief. I am glad to see so many

people have been appreciating my movies' inherent beauty. I thank you, all, to

God, and to all my fans, friends, and family for playing such a very special

role in these experimental pieces, although perhaps without you knowing it. I

am brought to a deep sense of nostalgia for good times long gone, from lost

film footage in the archives here at the production office to experimenting

into the depth of new ground, and new artistic expression. I suffer from a rare

and comorbid mental health diagnoses, namely those within the schizophrenia and

autistic spectra. My mental illnesses have blessed me over the years with many

creative gifts. So, with immense gratitude, I thank you, my muse, wife, and my

family, friends, and fans.
