Holding on to Eternity, (Aferrándose a la Eternidad) es una visión musical cósmica que mezcla música electrónica moderna, rítmica y melódica con sonoridades muy de ciencia-ficción de los años 70. Nuestras principales influencias son el músico fránces Jean Michel Jarre y los alemanes de Tangerine Dream.
Holding on to Eternity, bajo la produción y con arreglos del músico argentino Franco Palmetti 'Xethis', es un trabajo ambicioso, por las ideas que manejamos, ideas que quizá puedan resultar incómodas para algunos, pero sobre todo, para una industria musical que actualmente se refugia en planteamientos y fórmulas probadas, pero por fuerza intrascendentes. Te bajas dos o tres canciones, las escuchas en tu teléfono o tu iPod y en una semana las borras y las olvidas para siempre. La idea de componer y grabar una obra musical de un corte casi espiritualista y conceptual es un movimiento, que consideramos a la vez atractivo y arriesgado.
‘Holding On To Eternity’ es una metáfora musical del épico y maravilloso viaje de la vida que todos los seres humanos recorremos. Una alegoría sobre los viajes de descubrimiento a lugares remotos, y de imaginarias y osadas travesías al lejano espacio exterior del cosmos. Pero también nos invita a reflexionar sobre los viajes personales a nuestro espacio interior, a los más recónditos rincones de la mente y el alma humana, donde se encuentran las verdaderas llaves del autodescubrimiento.
Hace un par de años un Observatorio de la NASA, fotografió una estrella pulsar a 17 mil años luz de distancia, y de manera increíble luce exactamente como una mano colosal con una inimaginable extensión de 150 años luz. La espectacular imagen fue llamada "La Mano de Dios” y pareciera se aferra al infinito cosmos… a la eternidad. Esta foto, (que está incluida en las imágenes promocionales del disco con autorización de la NASA) y las ideas de Sigmund Freud sobre el arte, son los dos principales elementos que dan origen al concepto, título y a las imágenes que aparecen en el disco.
Han sido varias las personas que nos han dicho que les gusta escuchar los temas más luminosos y optimistas por las mañanas, o en momentos difíciles, con el fin de cargarse de ánimos y energía. Ya son varios los oyentes que nos mencionan eso; que perciben una "buena vibra” muy presente en ‘Holding on to Eternity’. Hubo una ocasión que alguien tratando de definir nuestro estilo musical lo llamo música "electro-optimista”, me pareció una genial ocurrencia.
Creo que la situación actual y general de nuestro país es de temor y tal vez algo de desesperanza en algunos. Es muy probable esto me haya inspirado de una forma subconciente a componer algunos de nuestros temas con melodías evocadoras, optimistas, alegres y con una luz propia, que es percibida y mencionada por nuestros oyentes. En el 2012 el mundo vive con incertidumbre y temor por el supuesto fin del mundo "predicho" por los mayas; nosotros no lo creemos, el planeta vive actualmente una etapa de transición, de un despertar de conciencia global del cual queremos formar parte, aportando nuestro mensaje y nuestra música cósmica que nos recuerda que TODOS SOMOS UNO CON EL UNIVERSO.

Had to take a stress break today. Headed to a park here in Victoria where I knew I would find Cherry Blossoms (yes blossoms in February). On my way to pink trees a pair of geese headed my way in hopes of sustenance. Unfortunately for them, I'm not a five year old kid with cheerio crumbs in my pockets anymore.
*Pink Blossoms to come
All x-frog plants, except the grass, i can't seem to find who created it, but i did use one of mr. lamppost's maps to change it;s color from BRIGHT green to soft green.

Recently after a trip out of town we came home to our oldest "old growth" Douglas fir losing needles during a hot spell.
After a visit from the tree doctor we discovered our 200 year old giant had root rot and had to come out asap.
I am just sick....I am writing as they are taking my poor old tree out of her misery with chainsaws and hatchets.
Last night Bling Bling and I had a memorial for our stately tree as I set up a shrine and incense. Bling was so overcome with greif she even hugged the tree (see other images)
We will miss your shelter and shade my friend but you will not be forgotten. The tree guys promised to leave me a table high stump and I will make stools from the branches. This will be my new morning coffee sitting spot
Refuse to be bored, I'm a tinker. The person, you do not want as a kneigbour. I'm your hippy you don't meet everyday. Try to be nice, keep the peace, work out the difference. Long, to be left alone. One day, and not this one, I will be free. And I take you with me, anyone who dare's to care. The dreamer, the life slayer, he enjoyer, the caretaker. I care, and would take the job, i'ts not vacant yet. Love...

When it comes to photographing a subject, one thing that I enjoy doing is checking on them a few years later to see if and how they’ve changed. Whether it’s an object or a place, you’re guaranteed to find differences that have occurred with the passage of time.
Today’s subject for revisiting is an abandoned Dodge Meadowbrook—or supposedly a Wayfarer, but I’ll get to that in a moment—that my wife and I discovered deep in the woods while on a hike two or three years ago. While it’s surrounded by trees and bushes today, at the time that it was most likely parked in its final resting spot—the early to late 1960s—the area was rather open and treeless, judging by a few old photos of the area that we were able to get our hands on.
This particular abandoned car is, from what we can tell by looking at images online, actually a four-door 1949 Dodge Meadowbrook. When we first took photos of it a few years ago, I referred to it as a Dodge Wayfarer for one reason: there was a “Wayfarer” name badge affixed to the driver’s side fender. Now, having had time to research the vehicle and discovering that there were probably never any four-door Wayfarers in existence, and discovering that some of this car looked to be Frankensteined in areas, we’re wondering if it’s actually a Meadowbrook that was pieced together and a Wayfarer badge was affixed to it at some point.
Regardless, it’s sad that this piece of Americana ended up here and realistically will never be saved. It’s too deep in the forest to get it towed out, and after revisiting the vehicle this time, most of the car looks as if it would fall apart if it’s even moved. It’s doomed to disintegrate, but photos can capture what’s left of it while it’s still here.

When we visited the Musee D'Orsay in September, 2016, we had less than 90 minutes to actually view the collection, so I concentrated on the Impressionist works on the top floor:

When we returned to Paris in May, 2017, I made sure to cover the floors and areas of the Museum that I had missed on my first trip.
Since the D'Orsay owns many more top flight paintings and sculptures than it has room to show at any one time, and lends many works to other institutions, there were many works of art on display in May that had not been there the previous September, so there is little overlap between the two albums.
I also have a separate album about the special exhibition - "Beyond the Stars -The Mystical Landscape from Monet to Kandinsky (Au-dela des Etoiles - Le Paysage Mystique de Monet a Kandinsky)":
