The Lençóis Maranhenses National Park is located in Maranhão state, in northeastern Brazil. It is an area of low, flat, occasionally flooded land, overlaid with large, discrete sand dunes. It encompasses roughly 1000 square kilometers, and despite abundant rain, supports almost no vegetation.
The National Park is quite extensive and has no access roads. Because of the nature of the park's protected status, most vehicles are not permitted access. Entrance to the park is made exclusively by 4-wheel drive trucks.
Composed of large, white, sweeping dunes, at first glance Lençóis Maranhenses looks like an archetypal desert.
In fact it isn't actually a desert. Lying just outside the amazon basin, the region is subject to a regular rain season during the beginning of the year. The rains cause a peculiar phenomenon: freshwater collects in the valleys between sand dunes, spotting the desert with blue and green lagoons that reach their fullest between July and September.
The area is also surprisingly home to a variety of fish which, despite the almost complete disappearance of the lagoons during the dry season, have their eggs brought from the sea by birds.
SN/NC: Bellis perennis, Asteraceae Family
Bellis perennis is a common European species of daisy, of the family Asteraceae, often considered the archetypal species of that name.
Many related plants also share the name "daisy", so to distinguish this species from other daisies it is sometimes qualified as common daisy, lawn daisy or English daisy. Historically, it has also been commonly known as bruisewort and occasionally woundwort (although the common name woundwort is now more closely associated with Stachys). Bellis perennis is native to western, central and northern Europe, including remote islands such as the Faroe Islands but widely naturalised in most temperate regions including the Americas and Australasia.
A espécie Bellis perennis, também designada pelos nomes populares margarida, margarita, margarida-vulgar, margarida-menor, margarida-comum, margarida-inglesa, bonina, bela-margarida, sempre-viva, margaridinha, mãe-de-família, margarida-rasteira, rapazinho ou rapazinhos, é uma planta vivaz da família das Asteraceae. Existem muitas variedades híbridas, utilizadas em floricultura, com lígulas brancas, rosadas, vermelhas ou roxas, de forma simples ou dobrada.
Bellis perennis is een veel voorkomende Europese madeliefjessoort, van de familie Asteraceae, vaak beschouwd als de archetypische soort met die naam. Meer over deze brontekst vereist voor aanvullende vertaalinformatie. Veel verwante planten delen ook de naam "madeliefje", dus om deze soort te onderscheiden van andere madeliefjes wordt het soms gekwalificeerd als gewone madeliefje, gazonmadeliefje of Engels madeliefje. Historisch gezien is het ook algemeen bekend als kneuzing en af en toe wondkruid (hoewel de gewone naam wondkruid nu nauwer wordt geassocieerd met Stachys). Bellis perennis is inheems in West-, Midden- en Noord-Europa, inclusief afgelegen eilanden zoals de Faeröer, maar is op grote schaal genaturaliseerd in de meeste gematigde streken, waaronder Noord- en Zuid-Amerika en Australazië.
Bellis perennis est une espèce européenne commune de marguerite, de la famille des astéracées, souvent considérée comme l'espèce archétypale de ce nom. De nombreuses plantes apparentées partagent également le nom de «marguerite», donc pour distinguer cette espèce des autres marguerites, elle est parfois qualifiée de marguerite commune, de marguerite de pelouse ou de marguerite anglaise. Historiquement, elle a également été communément connue sous le nom d'ecchymose et parfois de plaie (bien que le nom commun de plaie soit maintenant plus étroitement associé à Stachys). Bellis perennis est originaire d'Europe occidentale, centrale et septentrionale, y compris des îles éloignées telles que les îles Féroé, mais largement naturalisé dans la plupart des régions tempérées, y compris les Amériques et l’Australasie.
Bellis perennis ist eine verbreitete europäische Gänseblümchenart aus der Familie der Asteraceae, die oft als die archetypischen Arten dieses Namens angesehen wird.
Viele verwandte Pflanzen haben auch den Namen "Gänseblümchen". Um diese Art von anderen Gänseblümchen zu unterscheiden, wird sie manchmal als gewöhnliches Gänseblümchen, Rasengänseblümchen oder englisches Gänseblümchen bezeichnet. In der Vergangenheit war es auch allgemein als Bruisewort und gelegentlich als Wundkraut bekannt (obwohl der gebräuchliche Name Wundkraut jetzt enger mit Stachys verbunden ist). Bellis perennis stammt aus West-, Mittel- und Nordeuropa, einschließlich abgelegener Inseln wie den Färöern, ist jedoch in den meisten gemäßigten Regionen wie Amerika und Australasien weit verbreitet.
Bellis perennis è una specie comune europea di margherita, della famiglia delle Asteraceae, spesso considerata la specie archetipica di quel nome.
Molte piante imparentate condividono anche il nome "margherita", quindi per distinguere questa specie dalle altre margherite viene talvolta definita margherita comune, margherita del prato o margherita inglese. Storicamente, è stato anche comunemente noto come luisewort e occasionalmente ferita (sebbene il nome comune ferita sia ora più strettamente associato a Stachys). Bellis perennis è originaria dell'Europa occidentale, centrale e settentrionale, comprese isole remote come le Isole Faroe, ma ampiamente naturalizzata nella maggior parte delle regioni temperate, comprese le Americhe e l'Australasia.
Bellis perennis es una especie europea común de margarita, de la familia Asteraceae, a menudo considerada la especie arquetípica de ese nombre.
Muchas plantas relacionadas también comparten el nombre de "margarita", por lo que para distinguir esta especie de otras margaritas, a veces se la califica como margarita común, margarita de césped o margarita inglesa. Históricamente, también se ha conocido comúnmente como hematoma y ocasionalmente como herida (aunque el nombre común de hierba se asocia ahora más estrechamente con Stachys). Bellis perennis es originaria de Europa occidental, central y septentrional, incluidas islas remotas como las Islas Feroe, pero está ampliamente naturalizada en la mayoría de las regiones templadas, incluidas América y Australasia.
Bellis perennis هو نوع أوروبي شائع من الأقحوان ، من عائلة Asteraceae ، وغالبًا ما يُعتبر الأنواع البدائية لهذا الاسم.
تشترك العديد من النباتات ذات الصلة أيضًا في اسم "الأقحوان" ، لذلك لتمييز هذا النوع عن الإقحوانات الأخرى ، يتم تصنيفها أحيانًا على أنها أقحوان مشترك أو ديزي في الحديقة أو ديزي إنجليزي. تاريخيًا ، كان يُعرف أيضًا باسم bruisewort وأحيانًا الجرح (على الرغم من أن الاسم الشائع للجروح أصبح الآن أكثر ارتباطًا بـ Stachys). بيليس بيرينس موطنه الأصلي في غرب ووسط وشمال أوروبا ، بما في ذلك الجزر النائية مثل جزر فارو ولكنه متجنس على نطاق واسع في معظم المناطق المعتدلة بما في ذلك الأمريكتين وأستراليا.
SN/NC: Dianthus Caryophyllus, Caryophyllacea Family
It is commonly known as the carnation or clove pink, is a species of Dianthus. It is probably native to the Mediterranean region but its exact range is unknown due to extensive cultivation for the last 2,000 years. Although originally applied to the species Dianthus caryophyllus, the name carnation is also often applied to some of the other species of Dianthus, and more particularly to garden hybrids between D. caryophyllus and other species in the genus.
Het is algemeen bekend als de anjer of kruidnagelroze, is een soort van Dianthus. Het is waarschijnlijk inheems in het Middellandse Zeegebied, maar het exacte verspreidingsgebied is niet bekend vanwege de uitgebreide teelt gedurende de laatste 2000 jaar. Hoewel oorspronkelijk toegepast op de soort Dianthus caryophyllus, wordt de naam anjer ook vaak toegepast op enkele van de andere soorten Dianthus, en meer in het bijzonder op tuinhybriden tussen D. caryophyllus en andere soorten in het geslacht.
Se le conoce comúnmente como clavel o clavo rosa, es una especie de Dianthus. Probablemente sea originaria de la región mediterránea, pero se desconoce su distribución exacta debido al cultivo extensivo durante los últimos 2.000 años. Aunque originalmente se aplicó a la especie Dianthus caryophyllus, el nombre de clavel también se aplica a menudo a algunas de las otras especies de Dianthus, y más particularmente a los híbridos de jardín entre D. caryophyllus y otras especies del género.
É comumente conhecido como cravo ou cravo rosa, é uma espécie de Dianthus. É provavelmente nativo da região do Mediterrâneo, mas sua extensão exata é desconhecida devido ao cultivo extensivo nos últimos 2.000 anos. Embora originalmente aplicado à espécie Dianthus caryophyllus, o nome cravo também é frequentemente aplicado a algumas das outras espécies de Dianthus, e mais particularmente a híbridos de jardim entre D. caryophyllus e outras espécies do gênero.
Es ist allgemein bekannt als die Nelke oder Nelkenrosa, ist eine Art von Dianthus. Es ist wahrscheinlich im Mittelmeerraum beheimatet, aber sein genaues Verbreitungsgebiet ist aufgrund des umfangreichen Anbaus in den letzten 2000 Jahren unbekannt. Obwohl ursprünglich für die Art Dianthus caryophyllus verwendet, wird der Name Nelke auch häufig für einige der anderen Arten von Dianthus verwendet, insbesondere für Gartenhybriden zwischen D. caryophyllus und anderen Arten der Gattung.
Il est communément appelé l'oeillet ou clou de girofle rose, est une espèce de Dianthus. Il est probablement originaire de la région méditerranéenne mais son aire de répartition exacte est inconnue en raison de la culture extensive des 2000 dernières années. Bien qu'appliqué à l'origine à l'espèce Dianthus caryophyllus, le nom d'oeillet est aussi souvent appliqué à certaines des autres espèces de Dianthus, et plus particulièrement aux hybrides de jardin entre D. caryophyllus et d'autres espèces du genre.
È comunemente noto come il garofano o il chiodo di garofano rosa, è una specie di Dianthus. Probabilmente è originario della regione mediterranea, ma la sua area geografica esatta è sconosciuta a causa della coltivazione estensiva negli ultimi 2000 anni. Sebbene originariamente applicato alla specie Dianthus caryophyllus, il nome garofano è spesso applicato anche ad alcune delle altre specie di Dianthus, e più in particolare agli ibridi da giardino tra D. caryophyllus e altre specie del genere.
Bellis perennis は、キク科の一般的なヨーロッパのデイジー種で、その名の原型種とみなされることが多い。
多くの関連植物も「デイジー」という名前を共有しているため、この種を他のデイジーと区別するために、コモンデイジー、ローンデイジー、またはイングリッシュデイジーと呼ばれることがある。歴史的には、一般的にはブルーズワートとも呼ばれ、時にはウウンドワートとも呼ばれる (ただし、一般名のウウンドワートは現在、スタキスとより密接に関連している)。Bellis perennis は、フェロー諸島などの離島を含む西ヨーロッパ、中央ヨーロッパ、北ヨーロッパ原産だが、アメリカ大陸やオーストラリアを含むほとんどの温帯地域に広く帰化している。
ومن المعروف باسم القرنفل أو القرنفل الوردي ، وهو نوع من Dianthus. من المحتمل أن يكون موطنه منطقة البحر الأبيض المتوسط ولكن نطاقه الدقيق غير معروف بسبب الزراعة المكثفة على مدار 2000 عام الماضية. على الرغم من أنه تم تطبيقه في الأصل على نوع Dianthus caryophyllus ، إلا أنه غالبًا ما يتم تطبيق اسم قرنفل على بعض الأنواع الأخرى من Dianthus ، وبشكل أكثر تحديدًا على أنواع هجينة الحدائق بين D. caryophyllus وأنواع أخرى في الجنس.
This image of an archetypal spiral galaxy was captured by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope.
The subject of this image is known as NGC 691, and it can be found some 120 million light-years from Earth. This galaxy was one of thousands of objects discovered by astronomer William Herschel during his prolific decades-long career spent hunting for, characterizing and cataloging a wide array of the galaxies and nebulas visible throughout the night sky — almost 200 years before Hubble was even launched.
The intricate detail visible in this image would likely be extraordinary to Herschel. Hubble was able to capture an impressive level of structure within NGC 691’s layers of stars and spiraling arms — all courtesy of the telescope’s high-resolution Wide Field Camera 3.

This is a photo of a painting that I saw in the window of an art gallery on Granville Island in Vancouver. I love the textured application of colours, the flowing current of concentric patterning, the floral and butterfly-wing motifs, and the subtle bilateral symmetry in the structure of the composition of this painting. To me, the image of this woman represents the Jungian anima archetype of the goddess, the eternal metaphysical essence of the feminine.
UPDATE, APRIL, 2025: Are you interested in checking out big, awesome prints of
my photos? This was one of 14 photos displayed in an exhibition of my work at Slice of Light gallery in beautiful downtown Santa Barbara, California. Come check it out!

Top things to do in Summer
Have a walk along the cliff-top path to view the seabird colony
Enjoy the display of coastal flowers and butterflies
Watch rock pipits in Fleswick Bay while having a picnic on the beach
Blow away the cobwebs with a bracing walk along the cliff top path, and you can see across to the Isle of Man on a clear day. In spring and summer, you'll want to stop at our three viewpoints to marvel at the largest seabird colony in north-west England.
Guillemots, kittiwakes, fulmars and razorbills wheel noisily overhead, while ravens and peregrines are often seen soaring along the cliffs. Offshore, you can also see skuas and shearwaters and if you are lucky you may spot dolphins and porpoises.
Opening times
Open at all times.
Entrance charges
Free, but donations to help us continue our work here are welcome.
Information for dog owners
Dogs are only allowed on public footpaths and bridleways
Star species
Our star species are some of the most interesting birds you may see on your visit to the reserve.
Fulmar
Fulmars are members of the albatross family and glide on air currents in a similar way. Watch for their trademark stiff-winged flight around the cliffs.
Guillemot
Guillemots look ungainly when they shuffle around on their nesting ledges on the cliffs, but underwater their streamlined shape comes into its own and they become agile and manoeuvrable.
Herring gull
These are the archetypal 'seagulls' that you hear in coastal resorts. At St Bees, they nest around the cliffs and look for other seabirds to rob of their food.
Kittiwake
Visit St Bees in spring and early summer and your ears will be filled with the unmistakable 'kitti-wake' calls of this dainty gull. Look along the cliffs to see them packed onto their tiny nesting ledges.
Razorbill
Very similar to guillemots, razorbills spend most of their lives at sea in the Atlantic, only coming to land to breed between March and July.
Seasonal highlights
Each season brings a different experience at our nature reserves. In spring, the air is filled with birdsong as they compete to establish territories and attract a mate. In summer, look out for young birds making their first venture into the outside world. Autumn brings large movements of migrating birds - some heading south to a warmer climate, others seeking refuge in the UK from the cold Arctic winter. In winter, look out for large flocks of birds gathering to feed, or flying at dusk to form large roosts to keep warm.
Spring
Fulmars and herring gulls begin to gather on the cliffs. Early mornings through April and May can be a good time to see black guillemots around Fleswick Bay, which seperates North Head from South Head.
Summer
The viewpoints on North Head reveal thousands of guillemots crammed onto their breeding ledges. Kittiwakes, razorbills, herring gulls and fulmars are all easy to see. Look back from North Head across Fleswick Bay to South Head to view the 100-strong cormorant colony. Linnets, stonechats, whitethroats and rock pipits sing from the heath and gorse along the cliff-top.
Facilities
Car park : Copeland Borough Council Pay and Display car park at St Bees shore, adjacent to the reserve entrance.
Good for walking
Viewing points
Three viewing platforms on the North Head look out to the main seabird colony.

The "Dragonfly" is a fighter-bomber based on the "Lancer" archetype suggested on "The Rocketpunk Manifesto." Designed to attack SHIPS, the dragonfly features powerful engines to accelerate to great speeds on its attack vector. Like a dive bomber, the Dragonfly aims to release its payload as closely and accurately to its target as possible before making a last-minute maneuver to veer off. Instead of a traditional munition, however, it bears a rod of high-density metal with enough of a basic rocket engine to separate from the fighter and provide minor course corrections.
The mass torpedo is a rod of high density metal with a simple rocket system which has been scored to break up on impact, this allows it to impart as much force upon its target as possible- a concept similar to hollow-point bullets. The mass torpedo is also resistant to point defense, as a hit will usually break it into a number of high velocity projectiles rather than deflecting away. (And, most notably, it cannot be detonated prematurely like a traditional munition.) Although torpedos are typically made of tungsten, there have been reports of specimens with magnesium oxide, and even radioactive material layers having been deployed against habitats.
The Dragonfly comes equipped with an adequate pair of conventional cannons to spar with other fighters, as well as a hybrid gyroscope and adjustable rocket maneuvering system capable of pointing them in the needed direction quickly. The fixed nature of its armaments and its typical mission parameters put it at a disadvantage against purpose built interceptors and point defense ships. The Dragonfly is best deployed with additional craft to support it.

Today — August 1, 2008 — is a Total Solar Eclipse @ 9º Leo — when the sun is totally obscured by the moon. That happened across the US during the very early am hours, and later was visible through northern Canada, Greenland, Siberia, Mongolia, and China.
In astrology, the Sun is the ruler of the sign Leo. I find it very significant that here is where the Sun — the archetypal Masculine — is being "Totaly" eclipsed or covered by the Moon — the archetypal Feminine.
In this case, the Moon then also eclipses the planet Mercury — communication — and all this occurs within the 10th house of the eclipse chart — connecting it to the 'public'. This Sign & degree are also connected to the U.S. astro-chart.
Eclipses usually portend a very large shift to come, and total eclipses can leave a lasting impression. Perhaps this shift will be one of consciousness. With the Moon (Feminine) totally covering the Sun (Masculine), it can be seen as the Feminine giving notice to the Masculine that it is time to give way as the Feminine moves forward to share leadership qualities (Leo).
The chart's Libran Ascendant (Balance) reinforces a true Masculine/Feminine Leadership.
Inserting a Mayan Calendar note here — we are moving into the time of Masculine/Feminine balance.
Just perhaps, things are as they are meant to be.
Time for change...ive dropped the 101 ! so im hitting flickr upside its head with 101 brand new, never posted graffiti shots... all at once.

Commentary.
Many villages have the archetypal features
of cottages, church, pubs, historic buildings,
woodland, farmland and possibly a stream, river or spring,
as a centuries-old water supply.
Shere in Surrey comes to mind.
Hampshire has many candidates and East Meon
is certainly one.
Residences range from Tudor through Georgian,
Regency and Victorian to the Edwardian era.
There are a few houses less than a century old
but the heart of the village charmingly
belongs to former times.
All Saints Parish Church has parts dating back to Norman times.
Unusually, its tower and spire rise above the Crossing.
It is situated high on the southern flank of Park Hill,
part of the Hampshire Downs.
There are two pubs, Ye Olde George Inn
and the Sir Issac Walton.
Both date back to the 18th. Century
and are clearly popular with locals and visitors.
One building, the former Courthouse,
was built in the 15th. Century!
The splendid River Meon rises in the Hampshire Downs.
Being a stream with chalk-filtered water its
purity is remarkable.
It glistens as it rushes though the village,
west and then south.
Undoubtedly, East Meon is a very special Hampshire village.
decluttr'ed and definitely worth the click
Critique and commentary always appreciated.
A model shoot with Vivianna (MM# 1579732). I posted a casting a while back for "Fairy Tale Characters", this is the first one of that series that has made it through planning and shooting. But there are (I think) more to come. Its a definite evolution for me: noir has tons of story and archetype to it, but the lighting works in such a way that I don't really have to pay attention to color or blending with the existing environment. For a more storybook feeling, that is definitely not the case. A definite step-up in my self-guided training.
Strobist info: a 430 @ 1/8th in shoot through umbrella, camera right about 4 feet (about 6-7 feet from the model), gelled 1/4 CTO. A 580 on boom above and slightly far (note the shadow on her cheek / nose) @ 1/32, bare, gelled 1/2 CTO. Vingette added in post (so don't trust the exposure in the corners), the sunlight is responsible for the baseline exposure in the distance. Triggered via RadioPopper JrX.

Archetypical Victorian corner pub and hotel, with fine cast iron lacework balustrades, this one on the Silo Trail north east of Shepparton.
This isn't as gratuitous as it looks. Now circumstances allow this is my usual weekend clothing ( under drab overclothes unfortunately ) as I watch the local football teams in action. There's something delicious about being the archetypal fan, swearing at officials etc while underneath my woolly jumper and jeans I'm wearing skimpy and sexy bra and panties ( always matching of course ). If it's a big match maybe even a multi strap sussy and a lovely pair of stockings ( fishnets are surprisingly snug in cold weather )

John Muir: All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.

From the box back:
"The last survivor of the doomed Planet Krypton, Superman burst from the pages of Action Comics nearly seventy years ago. Rocketed to safety from his exploding home world, young Kal-El landed on Earth, where he was found and taken in by a Kansas farm couple.
Lovingly nurtured by his adoptive family, the unusual boy soon realized he possessed extraordinary powers - powers he would use to protect and defend mankind.
Now, as Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter, he's a simple citizen of Metropolis - but when danger threatens, this hero bravely rises up to save the people of the world as... SUPERMAN.
Each of the ornaments in this new series will feature a different Comic Book Hero literally bursting from the pages of a miniature comic - with a story you can actually read!

40 years "summer of love" / 30 years punk
In 1961 at the age of 12 I sold my electric toy train to buy a real clarinet (before I had learned flutes & plastic clarinets since age 8).My aim for my later profession was being an architect.
When I first time heard a Charlie Parker record in 1962 a new universe opened to me.
I put all energies together to achieve a similar intensity in life minus the drug dependencies & lonelynesses of the then jazz musicians’ biographies (which I could read back then and listen to their music of course) for my own future life.
In 1964/5 another new universe opened to me by reading C.G.Jung’s autobiography "Memories, Dreams, Reflections" (1961). I fully embraced his concept of "individuation" within a course of life.
Both my new fields of departure had not been triggered by ordinary school but a brother-in law of mine had opened the door to the world of jazz by playing songs like „Blue Moon“ etc., him on the piano and me on the clarinet. My dear father had bought C.G.Jung’s book for himself but it ended in my room as well.
Triggered by the new awareness of inner worlds of archetypes – in a beginning analysing way – and the deliberate task of integration for one’s own full evolved individuation I started to extend my interests wherever my intuition lead me to. Also reading books by D.T.Suzuki (Zen), Beckett, de Chardin etc.
In 1965 I began deliberately to learn the Russian language.In 1966 I deliberately changed to Frankfurt’s leading cultural elite school to choose „art“ as my main course because – as I told it then to my friends and parents – a) I had been doing visual creations already longer than music and I thought also that art might be helpful in the sphere of architecture later and b) I disliked the idea to learn classical music and possibly destroy by this my already until then built up non-academic jazz range with the „Alfred Harth Jazztett“.
Within the elite school – the Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Gymnasium in Frankfurt am Main - I started deliberately a course in philosophy and began to study Kant’s „Kritik der reinen Vernunft“ in 1967.This course also lead me to consider about aesthetics in an abstract way from where I was introduced to the concept of „synaesthetics“.
Frankfurt had been a perfect center for my diverse developments: In the South of Frankfurt there had been the regular Darmstädter Ferienkurse for New Music, in the West, Wiesbaden was one of the main Fluxus magnets, in the North is Kassel & it's documenta, in the East, St.Georgen S.J. school, Hanau and The Monks, Wilhelmsbad and Rothenfels (my forefathers home).
Those diverse forces I had stepped into so far became a steady motor to me.
The power of true rebellion in arts as by the then actual „happenings“, dada and modern art in general – I then had studied as well the gradual destruction of principals of „natural painting“ and art history in general – lead me to the constant inner urge to follow this stream by transcending borders (avantgarde concept).I could easily detect this avantgarde force in jazz as well.At those times in the 60ies it generally took a while to purchase new LPs from the USA because of the then existing infrastructures.
And the American LPs contained more or less the only jazz avantgarde since there had not been any avantgarde jazz LPs made in Europe until the mid 60ies.I knew well about New Music in Europe though what lead me to integrate „classical“ instrumental improvisors (on violin,violoncello,bass,clarinet) into my group Just Music from about 1967 on.The same time I was pushed by the forces of avantgarde art and performed happenings in the public space and in off-galeries and a self-created temporary space in a house in Düdelsheim/Büdingen nearby Frankfurt.The „centrum freier cunst“ which I developed out of the „club h“ – a jazz meeting point for the young ones in Frankfurt – had been lead by the concept to „live“ all creative streams under one roof so to say: live synaesthetics! Since the rooms of the „centrum freier cunst“ had been limited I wanted to extend the dimension of extreme energies within that country-building in Büdingen which was not surrounded by neighbours etc.There I set up (in 1968) some orgies in the like of Otto Muehl (whom I knew about slightly from my recent studies of Max Bense and Oswald Wiener) forced by the will to transcend limits.Police showed up etc.
In sharp ironical contrast to the then in Frankfurt existing avantgarde art festival „Experimenta“ I wanted to create an off-festival called „Excrementa“.
Following I tried to maintain open the „centrum freier cunst“ downtown Frankfurt in a larger basement space for a short time.I had moved into a little commune in 1968 in the Grüneburgweg in Frankfurt nearby the Johann Wolfgang von Goethe University where the political students’protest movement had one of its European centers especially through the magnet powers of this university’s professors like Adorno,Horkheimer,Habermas,sometimes Marcuse etc.
I have to say that during this period my main magnet power remained persons who lead an artistical life in jazz or arts.In those times I witnessed so many „hearings“ at the university,“sit-ins“ in the streets and similar meetings where people of my age constantly talked & talked endlessly – especially the SDS.They all seemed to be driven by the power of words which was contradictory to my way.I very well dug the idea of „revolution“ during my then studies of sociology and philosophy at this university – after short interim design studies at the nowadays Hochschule für Gestaltung in Offenbach - in 1969,1970 so that I changed my aim in profession to become an art & sociology teacher to combine my personal interests with the „revolutionary“ practical work in schools and finished with a first degree in 1973.
The change from most persons from my 60ies fellows into the university sphere of the then serious contradictory powers by receiving a qualified profession and on the other hand at the same time to destruct and revolve the then actual establishment (which ever wants people with „true“ professions) made me more suspicious to the world of words. I thought that when students break professor’s classes to install their own view of what is „really“ important then I can break their hearings and bring in the view of „wordless or alogical“ protest.So I made solo performances to break up protesting student hearings by walking in there disguised as a priest and holding a transparent which protested against autumn: „I protest against falling leaves“ (fallende Blätter has a double meaning in German: falling papers) and other times I took my tenorsax went onto the speaker’s desk to blow loadly against those endless mind-fucking fellow students which caused strange irritations and questions:“Why are you doing this...?“ (If I only knew!)
Though I understood very well the necessary political urge to change the situation I felt that they had been out of balance and was happy to find new friends outside Frankfurt whom I could share my way with.In 1969 I had met pianist Nicole van den Plas on a jazz festival in San Sebastian.We played there together and later became a couple.Nicole was from Belgium.So I spend a lot of time over there in the beginning 70ies.The creative music scene had been much more advanced in Antwerp,Brugge and Gent than anywhere I knew.I was very lucky and started to extend my life with yoga,mystical studies from 1971 on and even macrobiotical food which I had learned through the short membership in the „Gunter Hampel Galaxie Dream Band“ in 1973.
In 1968 I first time had played with Swedish drummer Sven-Ake Johansson in the "Zodiac" in Berlin.
In 1972 I contacted him again and Nicole,him and me formed the group EMT.
EMT became the perfect new ground for spreading my multiverse.
The friendship with Perry Robinson (from being with the „Galaxie Dream Band“) triggered my wish to visit him in New York in spring 1975.This visit became valedictory to Nicole for many years and opened new horizons.I had entered a new school: „The Fourth Way“ by P.D.Ouspensky - a student of the great spiritual teacher G.I.Gurdjieff.When I returned to Frankfurt it meant a cut in my life.
I had finished my war resisters service at a psychiatric institution for youths (Universitätsklinik Frankfurt) during the years 1973/4 and now I stood at the beginningpoint as a professional school teacher in 1975.
There I met 23 years old Heiner Goebbels at a session in a bunker in Frankfurt.
He had been new in town since two years and was very fond of what was going on at my old university.The students still where talking and came partly into violent action against „things“.Later in 1977 it was the RAF that became violent against persons.
Anyhow I faced to integrate my new situation being an „adult“ school teacher,jazz musician and artist now.After installing the Duo Goebbels/Harth in 1975 there was this immanent urge to bring „colours“ into the student protesters’ lives and extend the protest by means (without words or fewer words at least,which means poetry) of making music in the streets during the many political demonstrations.This is how the „Sogenanntes Linksradikales Blasorchester“ was founded.
After I had stopped being school teacher in 1978 to fully concentrate on my "things", punk started to fascinate me.Punk was near to the situationists' ideas.Maybe it came from there.
To create a synergy between the then still diverse fields of punk,jazz,classical music and (poetic) words (by Schwitters,Jandl,Hölderlin,Burroughs etc.) I contacted my former label ECM to initiate the LP “Es herrscht Uhu im Land“ on the then ECM-associated label JAPO by the help of former "Just Music"cellist Thomas Stoewsand.
This step consequently lead to the idea to form the group Cassiber that aimed to integrate intensively those diverse musical genres by composing themes instantly (out of the sense of free music impro beyond the „FreeJazz/Darmstadt“ idiom as Chris Cutler says it).
Another place for synaesthetical creations became my work for theatre & film from 1979 on .
Words like „mixed media“ and „performance“ became fashionable for the same things I had been doing since the beginning and later people started to label me as a „poly-stilist“.
My interest in psychology and inner development continued – not without crisises – and I integrated a thrilling sentence (by Abraham Maslow) into music: „Life can be a gestalt in time“, while studying Human Enhancement (H+).
Later in the 80ies I founded the groups Gestalt et Jive and Vladimir Estragon.
Around 1986 I also started with another new sphere by integrating my old passion with architecture & design - the ever widening spiral cycles of life continued.
Words are weapons to make money & fame.
The word lovers (former protest students) meanwhile have penetrated the powerful institutions of the societies and began to form a new establishment.
2007, Alfred 23 Harth (so many words in a photo site,hhh)
"The archetype of the new warrior class is a male who has no stake in peace, a loser with little education, no legal earning power, no abiding attractiveness to women, and no future. With gun in hand and the spittle of nationalist ideology dripping from his mouth, today's warrior murders those who once slighted him, seizes the women who avoided him, and plunders that which he would never otherwise have possessed."
- Ralph Peters
