An Apt Feeling Today

In case you forgot or didn't realize, Jack originally worked at the Ginna nuclear power plant although it's hard to imagine what he could have been doing there. It had a lasting effect on him.

This illustrates Treasure Island's general phenomenology and aesthetic pretty well. There is an existential fallenness to the island that this photograph expresses well.

a new existential crisis every day

The daily grind of the 9-to-5 can feel like a relentless treadmill, an unending cycle of work that leaves us yearning for the fleeting moments of freedom the weekend promises. Yet, within the walls of this routine, there lies a certain kind of freedom—a chance to redefine what it means to be an artist. The philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre once said, "Man is condemned to be free; because once thrown into the world, he is responsible for everything he does." This existential freedom, the responsibility of choice, is ever-present, even in a cubicle. The weekdays may be filled with tasks and obligations, but the weekends offer a canvas, blank and waiting for creation.

Once, my life was driven by art and poetry, a fervent pursuit of creativity and expression. I dreamed in verse and saw the world through a writer's lens. But reality, with its unyielding demands, ushered me into the structured confines of a corporate world. The transition was unexpected, an unforeseen circumstance that now feels like a betrayal of my younger self. How did I end up here, trading words and art for spreadsheets and deadlines?

As I prepare for another weekend, I find myself embracing a stoic resilience and the pursuit of meaning that tradition speaks of. There is a nobility in this struggle, a quiet heroism in balancing work and passion. Each Friday, as the clock ticks towards freedom, I realize that every hour worked brings me closer to those precious moments of creativity and self-expression. Life may not be the artistic dream I once envisioned, but within the grind lies the opportunity to carve out moments of true, unadulterated freedom. It is within these moments that I reclaim my identity, not just as a worker, but as an artist, and a man determined to find meaning in every aspect of life.

It was a lovely sign, but I really was amused that it was unattached to the end of that statement.

contemplating existential conceptions at ....where else.....Lollipop Farm

He said he only posed nude in hotel rooms, but he'd make an exception just this time. interesting

4/8/08

After returning from my trip to the Finger Lakes and visiting Phil and Heidi's yurt I've been looking at my power consumption through a new lens. On the trip to New York my cell phone battery was dying. "No problem" I thought; I brought my cell phone charger along.

Although Phil and Heidi did have a battery charging system for their various needs, the lack of standard 110 volt electrical receptacles quickly illustrated the reality of sustainable living. I do take for granted that the power is always "on" and that there will always be plenty of it.

This realization has inspired me to take a new look at the way I consume everything from electricity to paper products. Oh, and it sort of kicked off a major existential crisis, but that's a story for another photo.

Existential ale? Just had to try! Tasted excellent as well.

Between the food and the look. A moment surreal.

EXISTENTIAL FEELS

NOUVELLE.

Un certain Ernest de latroufandière lors d’un des innombrables salons littéraires qu’il fréquentait :

Lança, rebondissant sur une phrase creuse sur un ennuyeux débat existentialiste

«Peut importe de savoir naître, l’important étant de savoir mourir.»

Phrase au demeurant complètement stupide car… Comment savoir naître ???? Je vous le demande. Mais bon, peu importe… Toujours est-il que sa phrase eut un énorme succès au sein de l’assemblée ébahie.

Tant de succès que le Sieur de latroufandière décida, un peu sous les recommandations de madame (il faut bien le préciser.) dite Josépha, née Mercier. De se lancer dans la rédaction d’un manuel du "Parfait savoir mourir."

Son manuel eut tellement de succès que le couple vécu plus qu’aisément. Le manuel du "parfait savoir mourir" avait passé les frontières et sa renommée était allée jusqu‘en Asie.

En réalité, seule la femme d’Ernest de Latroufandière, connaissait le secret du "vrai savoir mourir". Il est bien évident que toutes pages du manuel, n’étaient que cruellement fausses. Le manuel n’étant qu’une vile escroquerie.

Ernest sur son lit de mort, reçu la visite d’un vieux camarade de classe de Josépha qui, se penchant sur l’oreille d’Ernest, lui susurra : «Allez dis-moi le vrai parfait savoir mourir.»

Il était trop tard, Ernest était déjà parti dans un coma profond ou presque.

De colère le vieux camarade de Josépha, incontrôlé commença à hurler sur le pauvre Ernest sans réaction, puis le frappa fortement sur la poitrine. Ce qui ne résout rien dans un cas comateux, tout le monde sait cela.

De guerre lasse il le gifla à deux reprises puis tourna les talons en direction de la porte et disparu. Quelques secondes plus tard il resurgit et dans une ultime tentative se rapprocha d’Ernest à pas feutré, puis collé à son oreille lui souffla du tréfond de ses poumons, un cri faisant comme miraculeusement revenir Ernest à la vie. Ce qui engendra une telle frayeur à Eustache, car ainsi se nommait le vieux camarade de Josépha, qu’il en tomba à la renverse quasi inanimé. Ernest descendit alors de son lit de futur mort, se pencha sur lui et d’une voix d’outre tombe :

Le savoir mourir n’existe pas crétin. Il existe des gens qui sont morts et qui ne le savent pas. Et d’autres qui se font surprendre. Comme toi.

Il existe des spéculateurs sur "la mort parfaitement digne" que j’ai inspiré par mes millions d’exemplaire de manuel !

Résultat : Toi tu pars et moi, je reste.

Tout ça, à cause de ta bêtise crasse, de ta soif de détenir une vérité qui n’existe pas...

La vérité est que les gens meurent par peur, par peur de mourir et que mon manuel fut le plus garnd best seller avant la Bible, le Coran ou la Tora.

S’approchant à son tour à l’oreille d’Eustache et tout bas :

« Sur ce, je te salut bien bas et m’en vais me mettre à l’écriture d’un manuel "du savoir vivre parfaitement." »

Et lui lançant goguenard, en un dernier clin d’œil :

«Je pense que ça devrait faire de gros tirages.»

Puis hélant sa femme :

– Josépha !

– Oui mon chéri !

– Viens ma belle nous avons du travail, il va te falloir réaffûter ta plume ! Je crois que je tiens une idée de génie.

Josépha le regardant avec des yeux pleins d’admiration et d’amour. Ayant toujours eu une relation plus que fusionnelle avec Ernest.

– Comme depuis toujours et jusqu’à la fin des temps mon aimé.
