// 095 close and far
having a bit of a brain knot with
no.94,
so post no.95 will have to come first.
one - un-sync?
been noticing incidences
where 3 people
are
simultaneously in conversation;
one makes a 'wrong' inference & says something
which draws a big blank on the other twos' faces.
in sync, they say 'what the hell are you talking about?'
two - ships that pass in the night
how we walk past certain people,
whether colleagues, vendors, strangers
more than once but do not converse,
or perhaps, we do, but we know that
it's inevitably short lived;
how we engage in long conversations with
customers or colleagues through the telephone,
and yet we might walk past them in the streets,
not realising who they are.
three - the artist and the vieweran artist, whether an architect, a musician,
or writer, would almost invariably
have some ideas behind a piece of work.
as a viewer, you could look at the
rationale behind the art to appreciate it;
you could also look at it and derive
your own meaning from it.
and even if the interpretation is so far off
from the artist's intention, it doesn't matter,
because that's the beauty of art, imo.

so close, so farmight seem somewhat perverse,
but it
made the dust rest. is strangely comforting.

// 094 .blind.spots.
wrote a whole lot of stuff on
perspectives in times of conflict,
but i felt pretty daft trying to
address this topic, and daft
is something i'd like to avoid for a bit,
so it's best to cut the crap, literally.

float on. 8 bitthe 8-bit vs really made my day.
I backed my car into a cop car, the other day.
Well he just drove off, sometimes life's ok.
I ran my mouth off a bit too much, oh what did I say.
Well you just laughed it off, it was all okwhat's the message in this song ?
uhh...pray that you have a high EQ,
a bad memory, or...live and let live.
thank god for the mush memory.

// 093 pinback
I do not know what the hell their singing
about half the time;
The lyrics and analogies only create
a bigger rift between words and sound,
but i frigging love their tunes.
Strangely somewhat evocative.
The allure of abstract, perhaps.

// 092 Absolute
understanding the complexities of life
is akin to dunking a wandering mind in quicksand.
thankfully, some things remain absolute.
and can be easily defined in two words ...
i liekkkkkk.
