A root meaning of 'geek' is circus performer of some kind. Sometimes you need front men and women who rile, provoke, stir things up.
Personally I have a "been there, done that" sense on this score. San Francisco 1969, Leary, Kesey and the Merry Pranksters. Visions, visionaries, and psycho wards. Do as you will. And the truth is, I think I do understand a lot of what drives Kay, which is perhaps why he is such a Moriarty to me. Considering the gap in our technical understandings, I would expect to not understand a word he says. The problem is, I think I understand more of it than I should - too much of it in fact. Too me he is guy who took one too many hits of some kind of digital acid. Whatever. Art
