Who the hell is Cat Hebert? and why does someone
named Cat know so much about kinds of rats?
Jack
I am helping to set the agenda for the RAT Conference in Philadelphia.
And... I am, in fact, familiar with hell -- having gone through military
basic training in Texas in July; having worked with groups of non-sedated
hallucinating psychotics in one of R.D. Laing's cottage systems in England;
having sat through the entire Ring cycle in Frankfurt.
The name "cat" stands for a "secret" animal name (in the Native American
tradition [great-grandmother]). The animal is a creature which both rats and
house cats will try to avoid if possible.
I just stumbled on the rat descriptions, and they seemed to me to be a
nice biological metaphor for the process of different small theaters.
Cheers,
Cat Hebert
