Life of shannon Kringen

Our new album Kring Flowers is now streaming online on many platforms! Goddess Kring me is being produced by interactive Jack Records and Supaflower! We're excited to share our music with you and we continue making more tracks. We're taking my poetry and turning it into pop music and experimenting with many different textures and sounds and synthesizers and drums and bass and vocals and all kinds of surprising layers of sound

Update from goddess kring on music and art projects and the Seattle magazine is publishing a profile on me in March / April look for that on their website and their magazine!

Hey happy Valentine's Day this is an update on my life with art modeling and music and being body cast by a sculptor and going to the Houston Art Car parade! Working with interactive Jack records in Seattle making a full album of music! And I know have a poetry book called kringonian pizzazz!

Really happy for the success of fantasy a gets a mattress and honestly hoping that I can do the goddess kring archive project and make that a success in some way! Feeling very moody but really grateful that I can go over my 700 goddess kring videos from public access TV and start archiving it all and have it available for fans and make a documentary film about my public access TV show that I had on for 15 years every week called goddess kring! But I do struggle with feeling afraid of success as much as I'm afraid of failure so I guess I may as well just go for whatever and see what happens and not worry about whether I fail or succeed or somewhere in between! Love is all that matters anyway

My take on the Barbie movie after hearing historian Jill Lepore's statement of why she really does not like that movie

A kind of vague description of an amazing experience I had recently that is helping me heal and grow and forgive and drop my baggage from the past! #goddesskring

Pet sitting taking care of cats and dogs on this holiday feeling a little lonely and wish I had more of a family but that's okay I chose this path good luck to everyone on this holiday and all the different holidays! #goddesskring

My little story on why Tom Petty music matters so much to me when I heard refugee as an 11 year old kid and a pizza parlor jukebox magical story the rest is history it was love at first listen when I heard Tom Petty's music and little did I know they would create amazing songs for decades! #tompetty #goddesskring

Current life patterns chaos order collaborating musically with my new friend watching the 4-Hour Tom Petty documentary and sharing music back and forth following my bliss and my heart and my soul making it up as I go! Full-time freelance career etc navigating wondering if I'm on the spectrum somewhere.

Me talking about my artist statement and my philosophy and art is my spiritual practice. The way I approach visual and audio art and working with Dave flowers from interactive Jack records otherwise known as Supaflower. We met because of the concept of synesthesia. It's a long story but it's fascinating.

Had such a wonderful three or four hours yesterday. Going to a cafe with two new friends of mine and drawing and making art and having a very creative improvisational conversation with these people and working on new music and art! Mixcloud.com/goddesskring I added two new tracks recently to my mixcloud! Free to listen

My current life as an art model and a pet sitter and I wrote a new poem and I met a new friend with a recording studio who's a very creative artistic person that shares synesthesia with me. We both see visual things when we hear music so we might collaborate and I've had some cool pet sitting in art modeling experiences and I just finished painting some shoes for somebody...

Kring O ling zing, Boda boo Boda Bing! Sharing about the Art car Parade I'll be in and the art fair that my art car will be in and enjoying swimming in the lake with my waterproof camera etc basic life update!

On the inspiration I feel from the musicians, Mike Campbell and Tori Amos recently went to their shows a very small intimate show at the Crocodile versus a large show at the Paramount theater in Seattle. What a striking difference! I loved both shows for different reasons and I'm inspired by musicians to keep on doing my multimedia artwork and find my own personal power through my creative expression.

My take on passionately loving certain music that other people don't like and me feeling creeped out like it's not okay for me to like music that other people don't like, which is just some kind of weird wound and the tendency towards narcissistic traits in my family which may or may not be true, but some people in my family think that and I've been criticized for that and trying to figure out what is having higher self-esteem and healthy. It seems that I like to try to communicate clearly but really no matter what I say it usually gets misinterpreted by people so I'm just doing my best to express but maybe I should just stop trying to explain myself!? boundaries for myself.

What motivates me to have compassion and empathy for both the victims of crime and criminals themselves. Trying to figure out what motivates people and me talking about the prison system in Norway and how it tends to train people to be better people so they don't end up back in prison, committing more crime. They end up being productive citizens and finding a purpose in life and having some kind of self-esteem and self-respect etc. Basically, I'm motivated to figure out what is the root cause of certain ills of society and how can we solve it? How can we make things better instead of just focusing on being a victim or blaming the bad people? Maybe we can find a way to heal and move on and make the world a better place in practical ways.

Just a little explanation of my dad and how he's inspiring in his '70s. He's a personal fitness trainer and really super fit and continues to focus on health and he's written comedy and music, folk music and just honoring the great memories I have and some cool family photos that I found of he and I that I sent to him and wrote nice messages on and just focusing on that. Instead of all the dark things happening in the world right now, I will acknowledge. There's really awful things happening in the world that are very distressing and there's also really good things happening at the same time

A little monologue about the patterns that I saw yesterday. I saw four separate little kids being well cared for by four separate adults, one on a bridge, one inside of a house in a window and two other ones that were standing in a park on a trail and then on the side of the road going to cross the street and all of these adults were thoughtfully caring for these kids in a certain way. That was very distinct and really stood out to me and I thought the pattern really. I made a note of the pattern. It was quite interesting and there was just this interesting feeling in the air of excitement and spring coming and then I've seen some beautiful Eagles high up in trees and I've done some super zoom photos of them and then I took these great self-portraits black and white of me and got some beautiful shots of my art car with neon art light sculpture reflected in my car so I'm inspired by all of that. Just wanted to share that with you guys

Just watched two documentary films on con artists and people who committed fraud, thinking about personal relationships and my own personal experience from childhood with a con artist that my mom was involved in and I dated somebody who was a con artist over 20 years ago and these two movies I just saw makes me think of all the psychological manipulation that happens today in the world in society at large with the pressure to conform and go along with things that may or may not be legit and how most people just want to believe what they're told and feel safe etc. So psychological manipulation is pretty powerful in both personal relationships because people just want to believe what they're told because that's more comfortable than acknowledging that. Maybe there's something dishonest going on and unethical going on. So this happens on a personal level and a society level so I'm just trying to keep myself awake to all of this and just live the best life that I can live with ethics and honesty as much as possible. Good luck everyone!

Some of the patterns in my family of our self-esteem and our relationship with ourselves and with the world at large feeling competitive feeling like my ego is so self-conscious and defensive and competitive and wish I could be liberated from this and focus on doing what I love with joy and letting go of the outcome

A short little talk on personal boundaries and narcissism and some challenges on facing right now with my family of origin and having to navigate what is best for me regardless of what other people think I'm pretty much on my own.

My thoughts and insights on narcissism and codependency and boundary issues and some family dynamics that I'm trying to overcome and heal and grow and learn gaining insights on what is narcissism and how that relates to me and other people in my family and figuring out how to have high self-esteem and at the same time not be a selfish jerk etc all these different issues I think narcissism is a form of coping and a defense mechanism building yourself up to make yourself feel better because you're actually quite insecure and at the same time I'm proud of some of the self-centered things I've done just a big ball of wax that I'm talking about here!

Monologue on my current mood. Hanging out with my cat walking barefoot in Nature. Going to art model online today. Have dinner with a friend. Walk some dogs. Love the smell of plants and animals. Was near a farm yesterday and loved the smell of the goats and the pigs honestly! Focused on doing what I can do in my own life locally instead of fixating on large world events that I have no control over. But everybody should do whatever they think is best. I'm not telling anybody else what to do. I can only do what I think is best for me and other people can do what they think is best for them. Try not to get sucked into manipulation.

The power of music why I love certain vocalists so much like Tom Petty and Tori, Amos and more. The emotional intensity, the tone, the texture, the phrasing, the heart and soul that musicians put into their vocal expressions. Also really love the new Red Hot Chili Peppers song Dark summer or Black summer. What is it called? Just some of my ideas about music I've dabbled in a little music. If you go to band camp goddesskring, you can hear some of my musical vocal poetry I wrote tracks for free

Delighted by the sunny day in Seattle trying to focus on what I want to expand instead of getting caught up in anger and fear staying close to nature focused on creativity and expression and health and freedom. Delighted by my cat's beautiful orange fur in the window in the sunshine right now walking barefoot on the grass

The symbolism in a Tom Petty dream I had along with seeing a coyote and eagles flying over my head in person

Monologue about why I love Tori Amos music and synesthesia and that I gave her hand painted shoes and that I am stressed out but grateful that I'm alive trying to focus on what I'm grateful for and acknowledge how angry I am at the same time

A very intense powerful simple dream I had involving Tom Petty and Dana Petty his widow in the dream Dana had passed away but Tom Petty was still with us we shared a deep hug Julia Roberts / Erin Brock which was in the dream as well

How I'm feeling right now doors opening and door shutting both at the same time New opportunities and letting go of the past

The pros and cons of the kind of childhood I had running wild and free maybe being neglected in some ways but then again having the creative freedom to do multimedia art we lived in an art commune called evolution Art institute in Petaluma California and the Art car weekend camp out event I was in this weekend reminded me of so many things about my childhood positive and negative both.

My current life as an improvisational art model and artist and now I'm an art car designer! I called my Honda fit with rhinestones glued on it in my own improvisational intuitive way opal Moonstone. www.shannonkringen.com

About my art modeling gig today and my self-esteem and loving and respecting everyone's individuality and ethics and heart soul mind follow your passion on how I maintain health etc

Synergistic reality beyond us versus them my current thoughts on being a human being on Earth

Sorry for upsetting others! I feel misunderstood. Current experience of having to be taken off the radio station where I used to host my show sharing about why and what my point was. Compassion matters

Positive until proven negative

Spiritual practice- Mental health microbiome nature is my church

Election day USA rain walking without my device away from the internet

Role play with med students and what I think prison should be for

on being my real self people can just take it or leave it I'm tired of thinking that I need to be popular or get people to like me I just want to be myself take it or leave it be authentic

Tom Petty would have been 70 today free speech yes what his music means to me protect your medical rights and individual expression

When humans dehumanize any group it leads to something really bad. The newest group that I'm seeing stereotyped and dehumanized are people like me who question the mainstream narrative in the media about the medical and financial crisis that were in right now.

My current thoughts on health and freedom of speech

Current thoughts on reality

Free thinking question authority

Talking about my dad losing his two cats to a dog attack last night and the spiral of grief and how to cope with loss and forgiveness and love is all that really matters.

Yet another tom petty dream!

Beyond polarising each other - thoughts on democracy free speech us verses them etc
