" Ce qui s’imprime dans notre regard n’est pas l’œuvre, ce n’est pas l’art. L’art n’est pas visible, il se perçoit. " ~ Lee UFAN
When Brent resided his shop, he only did the two sides facing the highway. Even out here, perception is everything.

altared perceptions
it was just a table
its only claim to fame - it had been around awhile
seen a few things
been a few places
watched in a wistful wooden way
as
generations ate played and maybe loved a little
cottage pie
monopoly
adultery
and all the jigsaw stations in between
life waxing lyrical
on waxed pine boards
strait-laced victorians
wartime letter writers
joss sticks and swinging sixties
all tolerated celebrated and remembered
then
the day came
as such days must
when it was no longer required
legs a little shaky
complexion not what it was
small ads had no takers
so
on a sunny sunday afternoon
with saw and sledgehammer
it held its last service
a communion of noise and shadows
I've been sitting on this image for a while. Doing some different studio-situated work and exploring something more personal than before.
voilà, je sais toujours pas trop quoi penser de la retouche de cette photo... enfin je poste quand même, on verra bien !
War mentality cleaves the world into noble allies and despicable enemies; justifies any measures necessary to prevail, including violence to innocent bystanders; and disdains accommodation, compromise, or any questioning of authority until total victory is achieved.
In essence, war mentality suspends normal human compassion and intelligence.

However, no two people see the external world in exactly the same way.

In 2015, Guatemala’s Human Rights Ombudsman helped to expose a corruption scheme in the Guatemalan health service that left at least five people dead of kidney failure. Investigations by Guatemalan prosecutors and the UN’s CICIG subsequently revealed that health officials had changed their supplier of kidney dialysis treatment in return for millions of dollars in kickbacks. The new supplier provided poor treatment, and patients died while health officials lined their pockets. The investigation was a graphic reminder that corruption, far from being a victimless crime, often severely infringes on human rights. In the words of former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay, “corruption kills”.
The Northern Triangle countries of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras received failing scores on Transparency International’s 2017 Corruption Perceptions Index. In different ways, they also face significant human rights challenges, from police violence to violations of indigenous rights to lack of access to health care. To what extent are these human rights challenges rooted in corruption? Can the fight against impunity reap dividends against both corruption and human rights abuses? Are national institutions making progress in these areas, and what is the role of international bodies such as CICIG in Guatemala and MACCIH in Honduras?
To analyze these questions, the Inter-American Dialogue is pleased to partner with the Washington Office on Latin America (WOLA) and the Due Process of Law Foundation (DPLF) to convene an expert discussion on “Corruption and Human Rights in the Northern Triangle.”
Me and James went driving looking for a decent location to take some photos. We found this place in Bricket Wood with really great natural lighting. Also, my Flickr Pro has expired, if anyone would like to get it for me, I'll send you loads of free prints!
I made several photos of reflections in this interesting modern window in a newly built structure in the business park it stands within. The lamp posts and stained hardwood fence panels outside in the carpark created interesting patterns in the wavy glass. Each time I focused and clicked the shutter a different pattern of distorted images and shapes came out in the glass. Some were quite remarkable. One was even startling.
It is interesting to note that the structure is built upon the boundary of an anglo-Saxon burial ground, which is upon a Bronze age fortified settlement, which is built upon a neolithic monument that was part of a larger ceremonial landscape that encompassed an area from Springfield to Little Baddow and Boreham. The area they were built upon is rich in large gravel, flint nodules, and fossil rock. History reaching back over 30,000 years. One theory based upon extensive research that has been done, investigating unusual natural phenomena or reports of "hauntings" is that the local geography and geology combine with historical events that occurred on the site to cause optivcal illusions under certain conditions. The theory is that the crystalline matrix of certain types of stone, rock, or mineral deposits in abundance is able to absorb and record a sort of imprint of an event or scene, particularly those associated with high levels of emotion or traumatic events. This leaves a sort of "place-memory" that stays there, somehow embedded within the place itself. You must, however view the recorded image being "played back" from a certain perspective in a certain light in specific atmospheric conditions or you will never be able to see it. Author and educator Tom Graves has an interesting take on it in his book "Needles of Stone" here www.isleofavalon.co.uk/GlastonburyArchive/ndlstone/06ghos... I have worked with photonics and holographic glass plates, so I understand this scientific principle. It works with glass and minerals, so why not with a larger amount of minerals in favorable conditions? I saw some unusual images in the window....but I will let you decide what you see. It is your own window of perception that counts.

In 1953 Toots moved to New York City where he became a member of Charlie Parker’s All Stars. But it was when he joined the legendary George Shearing Quintet where he played guitar and featured him to play some solos on harmonica. By this time, peoples perception of the harmonica was that of a kids toy and not taken seriously in music circles around the world. In fact, the only harmonica players that were making a dent musically were The Harmonicats and Larry Adler.
By the mid-1950’s Toots was making a name for himself as a session guitarist backing and recording with the likes of Dinah Washington, Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee. He also befriended bandleader, arranger, and producer Quincy Jones, who continues to play and record for to this day. Quincy adds “I can say without hesitation that Toots is one of the greatest musicians of our time...he goes for the heart and makes your cry.” (From Quincy’s liner notes from Q’s Juke Joint) Both he and Toots would record some great musical moments including the classic tune “Velas,” from Brazilian born composer Ivan Lins, on the multi-Grammy Award winning recording “The Dude.” He was also the featured soloist on Quincy’s soundtrack of “The Getaway” starring Ali McGraw and Steve McQueen.
But it was his signature record “Bluesette” that has become a jazz standard as well as segued him musically as a whistler and also gave him his first hit record.
During the mid-1960’s Toots did well as a leader but got involved in recording music for movies and television. His legendary contribution to the Academy Award Winning score Midnight Cowboy features many of his harmonica solos. He also composed and performed the theme to Sesame Street which has been part of the show for almost 40 years. Another milestone in Toots career is his legendary solos for the Old Spice commercials which he did for over a decade.
What keeps Toots going after all these years is his passion for playing music and the love he receives from many of his enduring fans. After seeing him perform numerous times and seeing fans both young and old, Toots embodies a silent confidence and strength that’s evident in his musical style and how he carries himself. He’s always happy and his music and his long life reflect it. I still believe we have more of Mr. Thielemans to come and another generation of fans to discover this mans real musical genius.

1. Materials used are my sister, her sketchbook, glass, trees, and buildings
2. I photographed my sister practicing her art wherever she goes throughout the day
3. I knelt on the ground and took a photo sideways of my sister and the sunlight to show the contrast of the hard light. I later made the photo black and white, added a vignette, and increased the contrast
