The Collector
I started out collecting – a message for today
but now I am a bower bird, I’ve changed along the way
I can’t begin to throw it out, just keep it here in store
my shed is like a wonderland - as I keep more and more
The souvenirs that I have kept of places where we’ve stayed
and now I keep most everything that I have ever made
First it was the medals and certificates I’ve gained
then there’s work & references, awards where I have trained
And what about the history of the one’s that passed before
I keep the books and treasures safely stored behind the door
Then there are my heroes with the stories all about
explorers, sports, and feats of war, I really must find out
Slim Dusty and his music. Fed Hollows with his care
wonderful Australians, their stories are all there
Len Beadell - who built the roads to WA. Or bust
I - relive his stories as they fight the heat and dust
Now we’ve got collectors - all appearing on TV
with lots and lots of marvellous things that you will want to see
So when your wife’s complaining, for you to throw it out
just find a spot to store it for it’s valuable no Doubt

“One Sunday in June five hundred of us children were evacuated from Deal. We only had a week’s notice and we didn’t know where we were going until we got on the train. Deal was left a ghost town after that without any children. This was going on at the same time as Dunkirk just across the channel. Many children never returned and stayed where they were sent.”
The three houses i grew up in and how they look now (2011). I have great memories in all these houses.
somehow i thought this package was already lost in the mail... especially since i saw how the Xeons arrived in the mail a few days back (not insured or such)...
But... it seems my package with the true value written on the outside got held up at the border and i had to pay taxes on it...
Well... that's better than getting lost in total, right?
So, I think this was the last part for my never ending server number two, i better get going now and colocate this thing! ^_^
I later rest in my head
Sputter when i never return
I'll forget everything you left
I can hope
That now i'm always looking back on a scripted memories
Look at how i've grown, just see.
The burdens you put on us got me to be
What i'm supposed to be
He breathes in deep,
It helps him realize how everything in his whole life progressed
He's fine i swear
And he'll confess to you cause
Tonight he'll find his way back home
Forget about the plans we made
I'll never let this go

Don't you just hate it when you try to recover from a break up and end up having everything remind you of that person?
It's for our pintel exhibit on Oct. 17 in our school. This is actually based on a picture (which link i still need to find. sorry). I've always wanted to paint a night scene in the rain, just never had the chance.
As I was painting, I was listening to the song above and thought to myself "this would really suck if i just copy it". Then one like struck me "memories of you" so I decided to base the changed details on, well, my break up. Let's see if you could spot any?

Featuring over 6,800 rose bushes representing 557 varieties, the International Rose Test Garden received The Garden of Excellence Award from the World Federation of Rose Societies in 2006.
I always seek out the stunning and memorable views when on vacation.
Compare this picture with my old upload 'Memory from Loimaa' and corresponding photos from Google Maps.
You must agree that this time my photo is much nicer than Google's.

Flickr Map work like crap nowadays. Google Maps

Curiously, in this case (and presently) Flicr maps work quite well. Because it looks like no-one else except me have ever posted a photo from this area to Flickr.

My parents moved away from Baltimore many years ago. On this trip back, my dad wanted to go by his old employer, Carr-Lowerly Glass to see if they were still there.
He was met with an empty lot that held no trace of the buildings that had once stood there......It must be weird to see a part of your life be completely erased.
Shadow Aspects
BVA Honours
s h a d o w a s p e c t s
This work takes light and shadows as its medium and subject. I am seeking to explore ideas around place, memory, and conscious and subconscious perceptions of the world around me.
Shadows are indexical of the human body, of a specific place and time; but they are also mutable, changing as the sun moves or as they fall across different surfaces. As the lanterns turn, the design comes in and out of focus, serving as a visual analogy for how memories of place are built up through repeated paths taken through a landscape; and how memory, like the body or a place to live, can be transient.
The screens are used to reveal different aspects of the work, bringing the lines more into focus; an analogy for more conscious memories. But they also serve to conceal the lanterns, referring back to the largely unconscious workings of the mind.
The lanterns are made from found materials: black builders paper from the skip shop; aluminum cans cut open and reused; lamp stands and coat hangers from op shops. Frugality; and also an ethos of making do with what I find in my surroundings. The construction is simple and low tech, with the bulb providing light and heat to turn the shade. They are designed to be able to be taken apart from transport or storage; transient works, suitable for a rather nomadic maker.
“Moving in or through a given place, the body imports its own emplaced past into its present experience…Orientation in place…cannot be continually effected de novo but arises within the ever-lengthening shadow of our bodily past.”

As a child my brothers and I would run and play in this field....the big ole tree seemed just as big, but much less weathered. The days lasted forever......Sunday dinner never tasted better. I never thought as a young boy that I would one day own this farm and the memories........this past week the purchase was complete. Thanks Mom and Dad!
The title is from the last verse of Simon and Garfunkels' "Old Friends".
