The phone rings and a voice says, 'Hello, is this Bear?' A voice of melting honey, harvested from the sagebrush and orange blossom of southern California, a voice evolved for the solitary purpose of setting male corpuscles lambada-ing in the veins.
      The voice says, 'Bear, I've been just crazy to meet you.'
      Her name is Angel. What else?
      A voice as deft as fingers strokes the ego, soothes the stiff suspicious mind, unlocks the muscles of the will, drains away the reserve that makes one say no to doing stupid things.
      Result, four weeks later I am sitting, naked, in a small room near London's Post Office Tower, letting three girls paint me gold.

Burn:Cycle
was billed by its writer and director Aitan Arussi, as the first ever interactive movie-game. I was inveigled into playing the Golden Buddha, but never did master the game well enough to reach the part where I actually appeared. My performance consisted of one line: "Welcome my son, have you come seeking wisdom?" A simple enough task and I delivered the words with all the solemn sonority I thought a golden Buddha should have, but it took hours of retakes and a coaching session with Aaron Swartz who played Sol Cutter, to get the reading Aitan wanted.
