Communication... without it, the world would be a quieter place.
(Think of cell phones).
Taken whilst driving by this evening, the golden tones turned pink later on.
Communication can probably be considered the life and soul of our modern society, but when there is a Tele Marketer at the other end of an unexpected call, you could experience a sudden urge to break several of the Ten Commandments....

If we can love animals, why we cannot love another colour?
If we can communicate with animals... maybe we can talk without M79 and M16?

Communication is very important. Obviously without it we're isolated individuals without an outlet to be heard or to comprehend what we hear. Communication exists regardless of how we intent it to be received. Verbal or visual, we all communicate. Just some of us are more clear about it.
I have a problem with words. Not necessarily with what words to use, but more with the frequency and amount of words to use. I go out of my way to be understood — probably to the annoyance and frustration of everyone around me. There's nothing worse than leaving the scarcity of your communication "open" to interpretation. This is how marriages fail. Friendships disintegrate. And the premise of every "Three's Company" episode for seven years. The problem isn't that I communicate too much, but that others anticipate that you will automatically have the same understanding of what they mean as they do. Sadly, this is hardly ever the case.
Language and communication are hard enough from region to region within the United States. Sack/Bag. Pop/Soda. It varies from family to family, business to business, school to school. Man to woman. We all have a vernacular (I know, I'm already breaking the rules of my own argument! If you don't know what it means, I can't assume that you do, you can find the definition here) that we fully adopt into our everyday palett of words; and expect everyone else to know their meaning.
Right now I'm stuck in the middle of 40 years of poor communication. Of implied meaning. Inferred intent. The end outcome is bitterness. Dishonor. Hurt. Confusion. Anger. When one said "That's ok" they meant "I don't like this but I'll suffer through it because I don't want to get into an argument about it". Ultimately we can't avoid conflict and we can't assume understanding. It's to the determent of everyone to take short cuts with words — and can end quite literally in a disaster.

"The sculptures in the room display sliced and unspooled electricity and communication cables that have been dug up from underground. The thin net on the wall is made of copper.
Nina Canell is interested in the dissonance between functional materials and their immaterial connotations. She sees subterranean cables as forming an underground network of capital, labour and knowledge, or as a kind of extension of the human nervous system. In the wireless age, the materiality of the cables seems almost anachronistic."

Today I made use of modern technology to communicate with Little Henry. I wanted to let him know that although our train was running late, I made sure that the next one would wait for us. The persuasiveness of a rolling pin is always a marvel to see :-)
I also wanted to make sure that Little Henry was taking care of my mommie and that he was fed properly ;-)
Most importantly though, I needed little Henry to look up a muffin recipe that my Uncle had forgotten.
Henry was most helpful and you can see him below carefully dictating the yummy ingredients.
