HI EVERYONE!

SO! We have officially started production with a great core of people working on this and other groups that help when available. 

We’ve had a lot of interest and support from people and we are slowly chipping away at it. 

Luckily with a crazy semester over we have some time to recoup and think about our next attack point now that we are starting to get our feet under us with this project.

Excited excited excited!

Also! The official script for TEAR IT DOWN was asked by faculty members of SJSU to be submitted to the BEA screenwriting competition. It is uplifting to have such support from faculty with such an undertaking like this.

Check out what we’ve been up to!

I guess I should post the Origin huh?

Tear It Down by Jack Gilbert

We find out the heart only by dismantling what
the heart knows. By redefining the morning,
we find a morning that comes just after darkness.
We can break through marriage into marriage.
By insisting on love we spoil it, get beyond
affection and wade mouth-deep into love.
We must unlearn the constellations to see the stars.
But going back toward childhood will not help.
The village is not better than Pittsburgh.
Only Pittsburgh is more than Pittsburgh.
Rome is better than Rome in the same way the sound
of racoon tongues licking the inside walls
of the garbage tub is more than the stir
of them in the muck of the garbage. Love is not
enough. We die and are put into the earth forever.
We should insist while there is still time. We must
eat through the wildness of her sweet body already
in our bed to reach the body within the body.
