This is the type of stuff you can still find in smaller cities, but is all but gone in Toronto. I love it. It's creative and better than any modern commercial sign you can buy.

This 365 project is snuffing out my creativity. I'm considering stopping after this alphabet thing is done. I'm spent.
When you got nuthin' take somethin' and process the crap out of it.

This build was calling for some heavy editing so I made several attempts until I was pleased with the result.
Please enjoy!
"...God has put creativity in all of us. He is certainly creative and believes in variety. Think of all the varieties of birds, flowers, trees, grass, etc., He has created. People come in never-ending variety of sizes, shapes, and colors, with different personalities."
(from Joyce Meyer's Enjoying where you are on the way to where you are going)
"He has made everything beautiful in His time..." Ecc. 3:11
...Try to do something different, spice up your life... it may be the way to find joy...

"Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while." - Steeve Jobs
"The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity. The creative mind plays with the objects it loves." - Carl Gustav Yung
The picture on a stand that I've used in this composition is Chinese hand-made silk embroidery. Have you ever seen such a beautiful painting on a piece of silk satin? Just imagine embroidering such a delicate fugure with the threads and needles! But such an exquisite embroidery has been one of China's most famous art forms for many centuries. The first response people normally have when they see Chinese silk embroidered pictures (embroidery picture, needle painting or thread painting as some people would call) is that they don't believe they are hand embroidered.
Chinese embroidery paintings are well known for its rich colors comparable to an oil painting and realism comparable to photography.
To create a high quality piece, an artist needs to split a single silk thread into several thinner threads and embroider layer after layer with threads of a variety of colors to reach the final wonderful effect. One top quality silk embroidery work usually uses millions of silk threads of hundreds of different colors, taking more than one year to complete.

The city overflows with creativity. Forged by traditions and customs, the city of Oaxaca is also defined by its inventive capacity, reflected in its streets, in art, and in its gastronomy. Knowing its challenges and challenges, Oaxacans have become dynamic thinkers, creators and actors of projects that bring unity and resilience to the city.
Here's to more creative thinking in 2013! I pulled into my driveway one evening and saw this weed in an entirely new way. Perhaps as a photo to illustrate the idea to "Eat Local?" Maybe not quite THIS local, though.
I love watercolors x3
I fell in love with the medium when I used them for the first time in art & design class a few months ago. <33
Its extremely rare you get to see this birds actual namesake "Red Bellied Woodpecker." Apparently "red headed" was already taken. My mother puts out oranges and grape jelly for our summer time visitors from Costa Rica like the orioles and rose breasted grosbeaks. Of course it doesn't stop our year round residents from getting a sugar high. This particular woodpecker would come in and dance circles around that branch its hanging from and finally decide its best approach as you can see (please zoom in and you can see it can only reach with its tongue). The smaller birds have no problem but this bird is too big and has learned it flips the tray up and thus can't land on it. This is proof of the creativity and intelligence of even the smaller to medium sized back yard birds we have all around us.

Chronicles of Lifting Light
There is a certain daring “edge” in acting out a role-playing game on a partner(s) in public, especially if (in our case) one favors Jewel thievery Games.
It’s a certain adrenaline thrill, both addictive and desirable, that increases up until the “mark” is relived of one or more of her dangling valuables.
Whether its carried out with a simple bump, a lift conveyed while, say dancing, or a squeeze play maneuvered with a second player, with the intention of pickpocketing the jewels they wear, or more subtle games of trickery or simple robbery, it all creates and holds a level of excitement most thrilling in its nature, quite erotic within its scope.
These Chronicles contain short essays on pickpocketing and thievery games played solely within our group over the past few years.
These were games only, done with full knowledge and consent of all the players (with a couple of exceptions where the parties involved were not informed of the actual happenings until sometime after the fact.)
Any articles of jewelry lifted or “Stolen” were returned to their original owners, albeit sometimes those owners at first thought the jewelry being returned had just simply fallen away.
The actual facts have been stretched, padded, and enhanced, due primarily to the significant detail that I rather like those in my immediate circle, and in order to keep them liking me, have agreed to “put meat on the bone” so to speak when putting pen to paper.
These Chronicles far from complete, and additional stories will be added as they are played out.

L'individu suffoque sous la saturation du monde parce qu'il a le sentiment que ses subordinations outrepassent son autonomie, sa puissance d'être-en-soi au sein de la multitude, son conatus dirait Spinoza, l'élan de son individuation psychique dirait Simondon, sa liberté diraient ces libéraux qui la catéchisent en la confisquant à ceux qu'ils asservissent pour persévérer dans la leur.
Qu'en est-il de la puissance d'être-en-soi de la multitude, de ce conatus composé de multiples conatus ? Elle est la puissance de l'individuation collective qui réunit les conditions de possibilité des émancipations individuelles, autant que les conditions de possibilité de leurs apprivoisements, domestications, assujettissements, servitudes et asphyxies.
C'est ainsi que la multitude s'étouffe dans ses propres supports de mémoire collective, ses rétentions tertiaires désirées ou fortuites, ses hypomnemata. Grâce à eux, pendant tout le 20e siècle, les individus s'émancipèrent par plus de temps libre, de mobilité, de culture, par plus d'autonomie qu'ils n'eurent à le payer de soumission aux normes morales, marchandes, ou écologiques.
Mais ces indispensables hypomnemata, externalités anaboliques et cataboliques comprises, sont à la fois opportuns et importuns, sains et délétères, indissociablement. Ce sont des pharmaka, c'est à dire des remèdes autant que des poisons, des délivrances autant que des addictions, et des boucs émissaires dès que les équilibres homéostasiques se rompent.
Comment s'emparer de ces pharmaka pour prendre soin de nous autant que de la multitude ? Comment mener ce projet comme une thérapeutique ? A ce jeu, à somme non-nulle, seront créatifs ceux qui libèreront les capacités d'excédences individuelles au sein de projets collaboratifs, c'est à dire ceux qui relâcheront les servitudes sans déraciner les rhizomes sociaux.
Du fond de la globale saturation capitaliste, cette créativité ne doit plus être une sublimation bourgeoise mimétique, mais une émancipation co-errante cathartique. Cette créativité doit investir les résonances consensuelles de la multitude pour en infléchir les modes de production, que de nouveaux hypomnemata, objets, formes et figures, adviennent hors les dépotoires des surproductions mercantiles.
A cette fin, il s'agit moins de “faire de nos vies une oeuvre d'art” que “de faire de nos vies un flot d'événements”. Faire événement c'est dé(ré)inventer, dé(re)choisir, dé(re)construire, dé(re)territorialiser, dé(re)créoliser les singularités et les excentricités distribuables et résonnantes, pour que la multitude en algorYthme les récursions et en laisse émerger de nouvelles lignes de fuite.
Individué par jef safi, récursant les hypomnemata du multiple : Héraclite, Démocrite, Zhuangzi, Platon, Aristote, Spinoza, Bergson, Simondon, Debord, Deleuze, Guattari, Foucault, Castoriadis, Conway, Negri, Stiegler, Žižek, Badiou, Maffesoli, . . et de tant d'autres.

The individual suffocates under the saturation of the world because he feels that his subordinations overstep his autonomy, his power to be-in-himself among the multitude, his conatus Spinoza would say, the surge of his psychic individuation Simondon would say, his freedom liberals would catechize, confiscating it to those they enslave to persevere in theirs.
What about the multitude's power of being-in-itself, of this conatus composed of multiple conatus ? It is the power of the collective individuation which brings together the conditions of possibility of individual individuations, as the conditions of possibility for their tamings, domestications, subjugations and asphyxiations.
Thus, the multitude smothers itself in its own collective memory supports, its tertiary retentions desired or unintended, its hypomnemata. Thanks to them, throughout the 20th century, people were emancipated by more leisure time, mobility, culture, by more autonomy which they had to pay it with submission to moral, commercial or ecological norms.
But these vital hypomnemata, including anabolic and catabolic externalities, are both opportune and unwelcome, healthy and harmful, indissociably. These are pharmaka, i.e. remedies as much as poisons, releases as much as addictions, and scapegoats as soon as the homeostatic balances break.
How to seize these pharmaka to take care of us as much as of the multitude ? How to conduct this project as therapeutics ? In this game, a non-zero-sum one, those who will be creative will be those who liberate the capacities of individual exceedences within collaborative projects, i.e. those who will loosen the servitudes without uprooting the social rhizomes.
From the bottom of the global capitalist saturation, this creativity should no longer aim bourgeois mimetic sublimations, but co-erring cathartic emancipations. This creativity must invest the consensual resonances of the multitude to change the modes of production, so that new hypomnemata, objects, shapes and figures, can befall outside the mercantile overproduction dumps.
To this end, it is less to "make our lives a work of art" than to "make our lives a thread of events". Let us de(re)invent, de(re)choose, de(re)construct, de(re)territorialize distributable singularities and eccentricities, so that the multitude can algorYthm their recursions allowing the emergence of new vanishing lines.
Individuated by jef safi, recursing hypomnemata of the multiple : Heraclitus, Democritus, Zhuangzi, Plato, Aristotle, Spinoza, Bergson, Simondon, Debord, Deleuze, Guattari, Foucault, Castoriadis, Conway, Negri, Stiegler, Žižek, Badiou, Maffesoli, . . and so many others.

El individuo se ahoga en la saturaciĂłn del mundo porque siente que sus subordinaciones sobrepasan su autonomĂa, su poder para ser-en-sĂ-mismo entre la multitud, su conatus, que dirĂa Spinoza, el manantial de su individuaciĂłn psĂquica, que dirĂa Simondon, su libertad, que catequizarĂan los liberales, confiscándosela a aquellos a los que esclavizan para perseverar en la suya.
ÂżQuĂ© hay del poder de ser-en-sĂ-misma de la multitud, de este conatus compuesto de mĂşltiples conatus? Es el poder de la individuaciĂłn colectiva lo que reĂşne las condiciones de posibilidad de individuaciones individuales, asĂ como las condiciones de posibilidad para sus domas, domesticaciones, subyugaciones y asfixias.
AsĂ, la multitud se sofoca en sus propios soportes de memoria colectiva, sus retenciones terciarias deseadas o inintencionadas, sus hypomnemata. Gracias a ellos, a lo largo del siglo XX, las personas se vieron emancipadas a travĂ©s de un mayor tiempo de ocio, movilidad, cultura, más autonomĂa que tuvieron que pagar con la sumisiĂłn a normas morales, comerciales o ecolĂłgicas.
Pero estos hypomnemata vitales, incluynedo externalidades anabólicas y catabólicas, son a la vez oportunas y no bienvenidas, saludables y nocivas, indisociablemente. Son pharmaka, esto es, remedios a la vez que venenos, liberaciones a la vez que adicciones, y chivos expiatorios en cuanto los equilibrios homeostáticos se rompen.
¿Cómo apoderarse de estos pharmaka para cuidar de nosotros mismos a la vez que de la multitud? ¿Cómo conducir este proyecto como una terapéutica? En este juego, de suma no-nula, serán creativos los que liberen las capacidades de las excedencias individuales dentro de proyectos colaborativos, es decir, aquellos que aflojen las servitudes sin desenraizar los rizomas sociales.
Desde el fondo de la saturaciĂłn capitalista global, esta creatividad no deberĂa ya tener como objetivo las sublimaciones mimĂ©ticas burguesas, sino las emancipaciones catárticas co-errantes. Esta creatividad debe invertir las resonancias consensuales de la multitud para cambiar los modelos de producciĂłn, de modo que nuevos hypomnemata, objetos, formas y figuras puedan surgir fuera de los vertederos de la superproducciĂłn mercantil.
Para este fin, no se trata tanto de “hacer de nuestras vidas una obra de arte” como de “hacer de nuestras vidas un hilo de eventos”. Des(re)inventemos, des(re)escojamos, des(re)construyamos, des(re)territorialicemos singularidades y excentricidades distribuibles, de modo que la multitud pueda algorYtmar sus recursiones permitiendo la emergencia de nuevas "lĂneas de fuga".
Individuado por jef safi, recurriendo hypomnemata de múltiples: Heráclito, Demócrito, Zhuangzi, Platón, Aristóteles, Spinoza, Bergson, Simondon, Debord, Deleuze, Guattari, Foucault, Castoriadis, Conway, Negri, Stiegler, Žižek, Badiou, Maffesoli, . . y muchos otros.
