Bear Deluxe Magazine [formerly The Bear Essential] is published by Orlo, who say this:
For better or worse, the Information Age is here to stay. We live in a world of hyper text, hyper images, and hyper talk. Ever increasingly, those that control the media waves control the heart and mind waves of society as well. How is one to deal with information overload, media-lock, and technological overkill? Straight-ahead, and with a smile. Orlo enters the multi-media fray with the expressed and extremely important purpose of developing positive, reflective and accessible environmental messages. A clean and healthy environment is not a "luxury," but a necessity. Environmental concerns are not "special interests," but universal interests. Environmentalism doesn't "cost jobs," it saves lives. After 25 years of activism, the "environmental movement," while popular, has yet to develop a roundly positive image in the face of sound-biting media mouth-pieces. By getting back to the organic basics of art -- the line, the pen, and the brush -- Orlo defines itself through style and meaning. By using nondogmatic, thought-provoking, and often humorous approaches to very serious subject matter, Orlo breathes inclusion, insight, and imagination into the fire of all too polarized social/environmental dialogue. The Information Age may well be here to stay, but so is Orlo. |

In reference to your essay "The Quiet Revolution," thank you for the viewpoint of sanity and reason you have presented for the enlightenment of all. The quiet modulated flow of reason flows through this essay, effortlessly exhorting us to awake and be alert to the ever present danger and condition of our existence. I for one will do what I can to improve this condition. [Quote me or not if you wish. Use for attribution: NDK, Creative Artist, Author & Poet, Allforart.com]
