He lives in the hills of Williamsport, Pennsylvania, where deer and crows visit his backyard.

The Angel of Time is a 28-canto AnthropoDigital Cantata — a musical-poetic meditation on time, being, memory, and voice in the age of digital dislocation. Drawing entirely from the author’s own poetry (with one exception), the cantata is rooted in the collection Alle Ontologie (Casa Vacía, 2023), where philosophical lyricism confronts the broken mirrors of temporality and self.

This is not a medieval project, though echoes of sacred tonality and liturgical cadence occasionally surface. Rather, it is an exploration of ontological rupture and longing, rendered through a richly hybrid musical palette that blends operatic motifs, musical theater structures, rock energy, and AI-generated orchestration. Each canto becomes a scene, a gesture, a voice rising from silence — not to resolve time’s enigma, but to sing within it.

The recurring figure of the Angel of Time moves between the cantos as both presence and absence — not a herald of final judgment, but a witness to the dispersed remnants of human meaning. The cantata forms a sustained cry across digital space, where language and sound strive toward something irretrievable yet not forgotten.
