Washington, DC / July 5, 2010
The band and I shot new promos last night in CJ's living room. Just might have been the tightest shooting space I've ever shot in. Seems to have come out well though. We have dropped a few band members so we needed the new ones.

Questa non è una storia come tutte le altre...potrebbe iniziare con un "C'era una volta"...ma sicuramente non ha un lieto fine...
In tempi remoti viveva in una bellissima dimora una regina severa e dallo sguardo austero, il suo nome era Lilith. Peccava di superbia e si sentiva superiore e più bella di tutte le altre creature viventi. Un giorno una divinità decise di punirla per i suoi modi e la trasformò in una bestia antropomorfa. La regina, piena d'odio e d'ira, iniziò a divorare i poveri malcapitati che osavano avvicinarsi alla villa. Divenne così il mostro del paese e si dice che ancora oggi dimori all'interno della magione, nutrendosi degli avventori. Ella viene chiamata la Divoratrice.
Secondo set di storytelling realizzato al workshop di Giada Laiso, "Bellezza e Inquietudine". Ho preso ispirazione dalla mia avversione verso il sangue, dalla fiaba della Bella e la Bestia e da alcuni incubi che avevo da bambina.

So I was watching this, and I caught a glimpse of my neighborhood. I decided to match up some of my Flickr shots on the ground with this view from on high.
The locations in the southern desert (3, 6, 18) are kinda guesses--I think the actual sites are bit off stage to the south of this view. Obviously you have to look at this at full size to catch any detail.

Do we ever truly fear the idea of being consumed by love? I see people fall victim to it all the time. Heck, even I have done it before, and it causes a world of hurt. Being in love is one thing. Being devoured by it is quite something else.

This thing had about 30 ants taking turns pulling little pieces off of it and convoying them back to the lair.
Do you have large brown shiny green beetles devouring your trees? They are most likely Japanese beetles. The best control for these is to attack them at their grub stage. You do so by applying beneficial nematodes in the fall. In the meantime, you can use diatomaceous earth, bonide garden dust, and/or neem oil to knock back the population. These leaf defoliators are a favorite snack for praying mantis- keep them around!
today was my daughter's third birthday.
all week she asked for "cake and french friends, cake and french fries!"
this was the cake portion

Susanoo and Bowie
As a result of his "wish to go to his "deceased mother's
land, to the Nether distant land" (Gadeleva, 2000, p.172) Susanoo's crying "the green mountains withered and the rivers were dried up" (ibid, p.173)
David Bowie, "The Glass Spider" (the song of Maman)
Up until one century ago there lived
In the Zi Duang province of an eastern country
A glass-like spider
Having devoured its prey
It would drape the skeletons over its web
In weeks creating a macabre shrine of remains
Its web was also unique, in that it had many layers
Like floors in a building
At the top of this palace-like place
Assembled with almost apparent care
Were tiny, shining objects
Glass, beads, dewdrops
One could almost call it an altar
When the breeze blew through this construction
It produced sounds of wailing, crying
Tiny wails, tiny cries
The baby spiders would get scared
And search frantically for their mother
But the glass spider would have long gone
Having known that the babies
Would survive somehow on their own
Oh, the glass spider had blue eyes almost like a human's
They shed tears at the wintered turn of the centuries
[Chorus][x3]
Don't you hear this wasted cry, life is over you
(Mommy come back because the water's all gone)
Don't you see who's in Heaven, is there anyone in Hell?
(Mommy come back because it's dark now)
Take care, take care
(Mommy come back because the water's all gone)
Somewhere she glows divine, somewhere she wakes alone
But you, you've promise in your loving eye
God it's dark now
Susanoo may replace his mother with a puddle (天真名井 ama no ma na i) where he meets, and who may, his sister, a mirror, his mind, Amaterasu.

Dusk near Shatili, along a river.
At night, two wolves, predators that usually avoid people, paid us a visit, staring our guide (here sleeping in the back) in the eye. Only after he flashed the torch and stood up, they fled. Meanwhile we slept right through the scene. Just in case, we exchanged the open sky for the Lada the rest of the night.
