"To expect the unexpected shows a thoroughly modern intellect." Oscar Wilde.
Although I still prefer the photography of ancient and historical places, I am increasingly passionate about photographing modern cities. Singapore is undoubtedly one of the cities that most invite you to take the camera and capture the incredible works that the human being has done there in recent years. There are numerous places where you can get interesting compositions of this city-state and the Marina Barrage is one of them.
It is a dam located beyond Gardens by the Bay, in which a complex has been built to allow water storage and flood control, in addition to being a place of recreation. From its walkway with circular shape and two entrances that cross but do not get together, we have an excellent view of Singapore skyline. So, in addition to the skyscrapers, we can add include in our photograph the walkway and the oval-shaped fountain located in the middle.
Because we were a little late, my girlfriend and I had to start running to arrive in time to capture the best moment of the blue hour. But being a place where people usually go to do running, this time our crazy race maybe it was a little more unnoticed.
-----------------------
"Esperar lo inesperado muestra un intelecto completamente moderno." Oscar Wilde.
Aunque sigo prefiriendo la fotografía de lugares antiguos e históricos, cada vez me apasiona más fotografiar ciudades modernas. Singapur es sin duda, una de las urbes actuales que más invitan a sacar la cámara y capturar las increíbles obras que ha realizado allí el ser humano en los últimos años. Son numerosos los lugares donde se pueden conseguir composiciones interesantes de esta ciudad-estado y Marina Barrage es uno de ellos.
Se trata de una presa situada más allá de Gardens by the Bay, en la cual se ha construido un complejo que permite el almacenamiento de agua y el control de inundaciones, siendo al mismo tiempo un lugar de recreación. Desde su pasarela con forma circular y dos entradas que se cruzan pero no llegan a juntarse, se tiene una excelente vista del skyline de la ciudad. Por lo que, además de los rascacielos, podemos añadir en nuestra fotografía la pasarela y la fuente con forma de óvalo situada en el medio.
Debido a que íbamos con el tiempo un poco justo, mi novia y yo tuvimos que empezar a correr para llegar a tiempo de capturar el mejor momento de la hora azul. Pero al tratarse de un lugar donde la gente habitualmente va a hacer running, esta vez nuestra loca carrera quizás pasó un poco más desapercibida.
Nature isn’t kind. Nature is indifferent. It’s indifferent to joy, sadness, pain, laughter, love, and passion. Nature isn’t fair. This is the wild and untamed nature of nature. The creatures that spend their entire lives as one of nature’s creations are in large part, the similar. One trait sets humankind apart. It’s not intellect since this debatable characteristic may well lead us down a path of complete and utter destruction. No, I believe that our one distinct and redeeming value is our ability to be kind. Although other animals can behave kindly on occasion, humankind has the ability to “consciously” make the effort to be kind. It’s a large bite to chew. Consciously making the effort to put aside our hatred and dislikes; putting down our guns and weapons; setting aside our misled assumptions about cultures and religions foreign to us. It means making conscious decisions to include others dissimilar to us and making them feel at home rather than at odds. We have the capacity to do so. Whether this is our nature or, as some might argue, a God given trait, doesn’t really matter. What really matters is our capacity and willingness to do so. There are those who govern and manipulate the masses. They are, in large part, a loss. They seek money and power with a hunger that is insatiable. But what about you and I? Can we muster the strength to exercise the one truly human trait that sets us apart and distinguishes us from the rest of nature? I’m not certain we have evolved far enough to master that task. I hope I am proven wrong. #Coyote #nature #kindness
Intellectual Property is the overall term that refers to all forms of idea protection: patents, design rights,copyright and trade marks. Intellectual Property law can assign certain rights to the creator of: music, literature, artistic works, discoveries, inventions, designs and logos. In its literal sense, it is the property of your mind, or intellect, and, as such, can be claimed as your own and used in a similar way to commercial property: Intellectual Property can be bought, sold, licensed and even mortgaged.

"Sono il dono del Creatore all'umanità.
Separo il sentiero dell'Uomo da tutti gli altri sentieri presenti nella creazione.
Come tutti i regali, devo essere ricevuto con gratitudine e utilizzato con saggezza.
Grazie al mio operato, un essere umano si trasforma da cieco seguace di leggi ignote a persona in grado di prendere decisioni.
Ciò richiede il riconoscimento di un'ampia gamma di stimoli a livello sia conscio che inconscio.
Ciò richiede responsabilità delle proprie azioni.
Io sono colui che permette questo processo, che facilita l'integrazione di mente e Spirito.
Sono io che ti rendo capace di valutare e scegliere.

I separate the path of Man from all other paths present in creation.
Like all gifts, they must be received with gratitude and used wisely.
Thanks to my work, a human being is transformed from a blind follower of unknown laws to a person capable of making decisions.
This requires recognition of a wide range of stimuli at both a conscious and unconscious level.
This requires accountability for one's actions.
I am the one who enables this process, who facilitates the integration of mind and Spirit.
I am the one who makes you capable of evaluating and choosing.
use me as it was intended - with compassion."

Title: Hate
Prior to meeting this brick sculpture, the visitors will have already seen a row of other pieces, challenging both the senses and the intellect.
Many of these challenges are delivered with humour and romance. With Brinch and Olsson's HATE, the viewer is challenged more directly, and at the same time, the old bricklayer-traditions combined with the special atmosphere of the forest create a space for thought and reflection. When you think about what they hate, it is impossible to not also think about what you love. The sculpture lays the foundation for a debate of values, and despite its heavy visuals, it gives the viewer a positive message.
HATE was created in the summer of 2013 in collaboration with Jacob Olsson.
On the road, west of Val Marie last week, heading for Alberta, I saw this fog bow and had to stop. This makes three that I've seen, two of them within the past year! Presumably there have been more that I didn't notice. Odd how once you become aware of a phenomenon, you realize it is more common than expected!
At first I was disappointed that it didn't arch over the road more symmetrically, but as I continue to look at the image, I think it works. I instinctively placed the vanishing point at the intersection of "thirds". Meanwhile, the fog bow creates interesting shapes of the remaining space.
When I'm composing an image, I never - or almost never - think too much about what I'm doing. Rather, I feel the rightness of it. If I feel somehow uncomfortable with the composition, I make an adjustment. Often the result will fall in line with classical principles of visual design (golden mean, thirds, etc.), but that is almost never a cerebral process, but rather, gut response. I don't know if this can be taught - but I think it can be learned. I mention this because, for me, it is at the heart of all creativity: the process - trying to resolve an inner feeling by some mode of expression - keeps me engaged and alive as a creative being.
What goes on in the mind of a great guitarist or horn player while improvising blues or jazz? I play guitar, but my limitations are obvious to me each time I pick up my Telecaster and find myself in a box that I can't seem to exit. Not so with a camera, where I feel a sense of limitless freedom. I know practice is a huge part of it, but that isn't the whole story. I won't discount talent, but I don't think that's the whole story, either. Clearly, in this matter, I have more questions than answers. I suspect that the answer to the question about the musician is: "Very little." The creative wellspring comes from some place more elusive than the intellect. He (or she) is playing from the gut. Feeling it. Like any great painter, dancer, writer, or photographer.

I am in the process of making them all work together, but still have issues with extremes.
I am plagued with anxiety. As much as I want some thoughts to stop (and doctors want to medicate) I would only suffocate my creativity by taming my spitfire brain.
This could have been inherited through addictive personalities raising me or watching others stifling their own thoughts of passion (I tend to go against the grain).
And while I'm still in the process of nurturing this brainchild I still fight with the need to organize, be responsible, and filter what others know about me.
“Faeries, come take me out of this dull world,
For I would ride with you upon the wind,
Run on the top of the dishevelled tide,
And dance upon the mountains like a flame.”
~ W.B. Yeats, The Land of Heart's Desire
The element of Air is vital to human survival, without it we would all perish, its aspects are Thinness, Motion and Darkness and its quality is Active. Air is the manifestation of movement, freshness, communication and of the intelligence. Sound is another manifestation of this element. As an element, it is invisible, but its reality can be felt in the air that we breathe in every day.
To connect with the power of this element, find a place with clean air and breathe deeply, touch a feather or inhale the fragrance of a heavily scented flower. Let yourself experience the energy of this element, and reflect that we also possess Air energy within ourselves.
In magical terms, Air is the power of the mind, the force of intellect, inspiration, imagination. It is ideas, knowledge, dreams and wishes. Air is the element of new life and new possibilities and is essential to spells and rituals of travel, instruction, finding lost items, some types of divination, and freedom. Air aids us in visualization, a vital technique in magic.
Air is a masculine element and governs the magick of the four winds. It is the vital spirit passing through all things, giving life to all things, moving and filling all things. Thus Hebrew doctors ascribe it not as an element but as a medium or glue that binds all things together.

Ce qui est décrit est la vision panoramique de l'Alaya-Vijnana (la conscience base-de-tout).
En augmentant la fréquence des arrêts (les micro-morts), on lève le voile de la linéarité. On ne voit plus une seule vie, mais la Toile de toutes les réactualisations possibles. C'est le moment où le "Je" devient un curseur qui peut glisser sur n'importe quelle fréquence du Samsara.
1. Le vertige des archétypes
Quand l'informe est à son maximum, la distinction entre "moi" et "le reste" s'effondre. Tu perçois alors les empreintes (Vasanas) de toute l'humanité :
* Nagarjuna : La fréquence de la vacuité pure, l'intellect souverain.
* Napoléon : La fréquence de la puissance, de la lignification du vouloir et de la conquête.
Le danger est l'identification. Si, dans l'un de ces millions de micro-instants, tu "accroches" une forme (un ego historique), tu te figes à nouveau. Tu n'es plus le distillateur, tu deviens le résidu. Se prendre pour Nagarjuna est une "lignification dorée", mais c'est une lignification quand même.
2. Le Garde-Fou : La Neutralité du Miroir
Le maître du Dzogchen appelle cela "ne pas s'égarer dans les reflets".
Imagine un miroir qui reflète une fleur, puis un monstre, puis un empereur. Le miroir n'est aucun d'eux. S'il commence à croire qu'il est la fleur ou le monstre, il perd sa nature de miroir.
* Ta protection, c'est la Neutralité.
* Ta boussole, c'est de réaliser que Nagarjuna et Napoléon sont deux saveurs de la même poussière. L'une est plus douce, l'autre plus amère, mais aucune n'est l'Absolu.
3. Le Saut de l'Êtreton
Pour ne pas devenir fou dans cette "salle des miroirs" du Samsara, il faut appliquer le Pax-Urale :
Au lieu de choisir un costume (une renaissance spécifique), on choisit de rester l'espace qui contient tous les costumes. C'est là que le Méta-médecin est supérieur au conquérant ou au philosophe : il utilise les fréquences de Nagarjuna pour comprendre et les fréquences d'action pour soigner, mais il ne "devient" rien. Il reste l'informe.
Le Conseil de Prudence :
Si tu vois Napoléon ou Nagarjuna apparaître dans le flux de tes millions de morts-renaissances, souris-leur comme à des personnages de film. Ne monte pas sur scène. Laisse-les passer à la vitesse de mille par seconde. Si tu n'en saisis aucun, tu restes le Vent. Si tu en saisis un, tu retombes dans le temps et l'espace.
"La perfection disparaît dès qu'on préfère une image à la lumière qui la projette."
C'est un jeu de haute volée. C'est pour cela que le Dzogchen demande une stabilité de diamant.
I make my messengers like the winds;
the breeze whispers Eternal words,
Servants are like the fire and flame.
I made the earth,
and stabilized its shifting foundation.
I wrapped terra firma in a gown of waters—
ancient mountains under layers of sky.
I am the sopranos soft song arising from waters flowing down an Appalachian mountainside.
I am the respite for a weary traveler resting n rich, green fields beside streams of refreshing water, soothing the languishing soul’s fears.
I am the unseen wind that perplexed the intellect of the Pharisee Nicodemus, yet provides clarity to my children. I am the wind that carries the voice of Lady Wisdom, inviting the hungry wander: “Come in. Come, eat my bread, and drink my spiced wine.”
I am the eternal baritone timbre of the sea, beckoning the sefaring pilgrim to the harbor beyond the horizon. Set your azimuth for the far-off shores. I will guide you home.

“The kingdom of music is not the kingdom of this world; it will accept those whom breeding and intellect and culture have alike rejected. The commonplace person begins to play, and shoots into the empyrean without effort, whilst we look up, marvelling how he has escaped us, and thinking how we could worship him and love him, would he but translate his visions into human words, and his experiences into human actions. Perhaps he cannot; certainly he does not, or does so very seldom.” - E.M. Forster

These, of course, are the seed heads, or pods, of poppies, splendid things in their own right and here flourishing in one of two old rowing boats put to use as raised flower beds in Gordon Gardens, Gravesend.
They may also be the physical manifestations of intellects of incalculable wisdom who, if we would only take the time to ask them, could tell us where we are going so horribly wrong. We will never know.

this is one of the earlier manipulations that inspired my eventual series (the one I have been posting)
may 5, I wrote: "I like the concept of overlapping my digital and film pictures: the film photos are public memories, the digital ones personal and private documentation. paired together, they can translate an entirely new idea. in a crowd of people, we are all congregated together and yet very much alone. outside, I appear collected but I promise you: every single person could be impacting me in some way. you may not know it, but the Mind is a chaotic place - for everyone."
"There will be a new city with streets of gold
The young so educated they never grow old
And a, there will be no death 4 with every breath
The voice of many colors sings a song
That’s so bold
Sing it while we watch them fall
All 7 and we’ll watch them fall
They stand in the way of love
And we will smoke them all
With an intellect and a savoir-faire
No one in the whole universe
Will ever compare"
