SOMATIC ARTOGRAPHY
LOST in footage, until I was found.
The following videos, presented here as artifact, spliced together with footage I’ve lived, confronting the questions that scared the snot-fire out of me, are examples of SOMATIC ARTOGRAPHY, a process that I had to find to convert years of my disembodied experiences — stored in hard drives like memories in the body — into embodied knowing. What was required was a reverse-engineering of filmmaking. What was discovered was a deconstruction of conditioning. What results are two magazines.
Below are some of the videos produced, along with my Holy Erotica film studies, that resulted to a gnosis of concepts and perspectives that I now openly share through the magazine artifacts and my regular social media posts.

It was during a spontaneous encounter with the embodied holy spirit that I felt God speak through my body with words so clear that it shifted reality itself for me. “Make Holy Erotica.” Over the next 9 years, I produced a number of short erotic films learning what Holy Erotica is, from my first encounter to Magdalene Remembered.
This video marks a return — to myself, and to a story I needed to tell my way. After moving through purity culture, a healing apprenticeship, and a reintroduction to indigenous culture beyond my religious-sexual wound — along with lived rejection and loss followed by love and recognition and recognition in Christ — I revived my old YouTube persona, CIFGUY, to share who I am now.
Posted just before the 2024 eclipse in Arkansas — an event I once dreamed of as a child — a cosmic moment that felt like a profound homecoming. But what I felt didn’t come from the eclipse alone. It came from both outside and from within.

A half-hour film study, begins as an unexpected take on America’s failed sex education and unfolds into a profound dismantling of a conquest code—the worldview that weaponized shame, distorted sovereignty, and reshaped Western theology.
Through personal storytelling, cinematic montage, and clear distinctions between conquest and communion, the film reframes the teachings of Christ as a transfigurative axis of paradoxical opposites, not a tool of domination, but a code.
Moving from national history to embodied awakening, from treaties to trauma to erotic integration, the piece reveals how healing begins in the body and ends in collective remembrance.
Ultimately, it invites viewers to recognize the Erotic Christ as a living code within themselves, and points toward a new cosmology grounded in mutual sovereignty, communion, and love.
DECONSTRUCTED DOCUMENTARYAS A MAGAZINE ARTIFACT CURATION
Paradox: The Decoder Ring
Welcome to our nation’s 5th Great Awakening, an ascension into New Heaven and New Earth. Our vehicle—a man confronting his sex-spirit split with his camera — happens upon an embodied algorithm, “the Christ Code”, a fractal pattern inherent in each artifact, each act, the magazine as a whole; and all of creation, reconciling sex and spirt.
CONTEXT
MIND
Purity and Pornograghy
As micro to the macro, my investigation into my roots exposes a sex-spirit of our nation: purity and pornography. By entering through the wound and listening to interview-artifacts and character studies, America's conditioning of shame is seen, dismantled from the inside out. This deconstruction of western conquest clears way for the next.
Healer and Apprentice
A supernatural somatic-spiritual experience is examined, a "penetration from God", a journey into the body and ancient American guided by a mentor-healer through apprenticeship. Sexuality, Holy Spirit, and trauma are re-framed as Life Energy, body armoring, and a Love Intelligence throughout all of creation that sometimes intervenes. A non-Western reconstruction.
BODY
SOUL
Gospel of the Body
The sex-spirit split is rewoven, taking me into ancestry and lineage: into Hawaii, the Philippines, and back to Arkansas with Native American memory. What emerges are spiritual gifts, somatic artography, distinctions of conquest and communion, the nation's sex-spirt wound, and a memory of an Erotic Christ as healing and integration.

MISSION
WHAT IS A LOVE ECONOMY?
LOVE ECONOMY + CAPITALIST SYSTEM
A LOVE ECONOMY is organized around relationship rather than extraction. Value is generated through care, trust, and mutual benefit, with exchange designed to strengthen community well-being, ethical responsibility, and long-term sustainability. Success is measured by wholeness—human, ecological, and cultural.
A CAPITALIST SYSTEM, by contrast, is organized around accumulation and competition. Value is defined primarily by profit, efficiency, and growth, often abstracted from human or ecological cost. Relationships are instrumental, and well-being is secondary to productivity and scale.
Where capitalism incentivizes scarcity, ownership, and dominance, a love economy incentivizes reciprocity, stewardship, and participation. One is from lack, the other is from abundance. One treats connection as a means to conquest; the other treats connection as the end, as communion. Where capital externalizes harm, love internalizes responsibility.
Both the Magdalene Remembered film and the magazines (Gospel of the Body and Holy Erotica) were created out of love and shared from that abundant place, already nourished by creation. Your offering is received as metaphor for your embodied presence and participation, versus disembodied consumption. This is a relationship with self, with others, and with Source.

What is universal is the need for orientation—knowing where the body begins when old beliefs collapse, where sex leads when shame dies, where God is seen when religion breaks.
This magazine isn’t prescriptive, evangelical, or answer-driven. It’s cartography: a record through the dissolution of inherited myth and the reassembly of an embodied self, and a memory that is needed now:
I believe the current spiritual awakening alive now is an embodied erotic one, reversing the limitations of shame into a liberation of sovereignty — the anti-thesis to a normalized unsustainable entitlement over body and the earth.
