Made a point of visiting the village cemetery last evening. Had been way too long since my last visit and I felt the need to reconnect. And even more so the need to free associate with a camera. That's my practice of going out to take photos but without any sense for subject matter. I simply move about and stop at whatever place I'm drawn to. The universe always seems to provide. Yesterday it led me unerringly to this tiny figurine. In fact I rode right up to it, laid down my bicycle in the grass and knelt down to inspect it. I love funerary sculpture and the little figurines and tributes left behind on graves. They are easy to pass over; often so small as to go unnoticed. This one was just a few inches tall. But up close it seemed larger than life. It put me in mind of a store mannequin. I don't photograph every figurine I encounter. In fact I pass on most of them. What I look for is a blend of pathos and reality. A feeling of emotion or at least some sort of artistic flare. What startled me here was the realistic human quality of the face. It was like looking at the results of some photo app that morphs a human face into a doll. But here the slider was life mostly at the human end of the scale. The gaze and facial expression were eerie. And figurines had been splattered with debris from a weed whip, but that only added to the reality. The face seemed at odds with the rest of the figure which was rather clumsily rendered as a sprite or fairy. The limbs seemed very plastic and the wings too thick. But that face...
... for this new year lot of drama, lot of fight for be SL-famous, lot of desperate love story, lot of stalking, lot of needer, lot of expectations, lot of weak cheat, lot of ass-lickers, lot of artists-like, lot of starving peeps.
I wish our creators stay creative. I wish that fun people stay fun, nice and interresting people stay in this way.
I wish still listen music, laughing, joke and still never take ourself serious.
I will that SL still stay a big circus with a mix of fun, pathos, creative, desperate, dreamers, liars, nice, lickers, lovely people.
Because I love circus and I love be part of this.
Thanks all for make my SL like that.
And I wish you RL health.
My resolution for this new year : 1920 x 1080

"La fotografia è un'arte elegiaca, un'arte crepuscolare. Quasi tutti i suoi soggetti, per il solo fatto di essere fotografati, sono tinti di pathos.”
(Susan Sontag, Sulla fotografia. Realtà e immagine nella nostra società)
La morte (o la sua allusione) rende preziosi e patetici gli uomini. Questi commuovono per la loro condizione di fantasmi; ogni atto che compiono può esser l’ultimo; non c’è volto che non sia sul punto di cancellarsi come il volto d’un sogno.
(Jorge Luis Borges)
I felt an unsettling sense of connection with this frightful Halloween decoration the moment I laid eyes upon it. As these things go, they are often over the top in terms of being ghastly, blood-soaked and monstrous. While certainly ghoulish, this small figure seemed to capture an overwhelming sense of pathos in a very relatable human form. The softness of facial features juxtaposed against the vacant eyes. The look of a little girl playing dress-up with inexpertly applied makeup and a party dress, but horribly conflicted with the awful hair and balding scalp. These subtleties and juxtapositions are what make this so terrifying. Creations such as Frankenstein and Dracula are almost humorous by comparison. Perhaps because they've been so overdone over the years I've become immune to them. But it's also because their inhuman qualities add a layer of safe distance. This figure is relatable in the sense that the human qualities remain, cleverly blended in with the a dark vision of the afterworld. It is imbued with the qualities I imagine a real ghost would exhibit. I can just imagine an encounter with something like this in the many dark and lonely places I've explored, completely alone. I saw so many overtly horror-filled displays the day I found this sad little urchin, but they are mostly lost to me now. Only this figure remains in my mind, and I've got a feeling it will be there long after Halloween has passed.

I met this old lady making garlands when I visited the Mullickghat Flower Market, Kolkata, India. I loved how the morning golden hour fell on her face and a sense of pathos covered it.
In der Westeingangshalle wird der Besucher des Reichstagsgebäudes von Kunstwerken Gerhard Richters empfangen. Der Künstler stand vor der schwierigen Aufgabe, sich mit seinem Werk gegen eine 30 Meter hohe Wand zu behaupten. Gerhard Richter hat an der einen Wand der Westeingangshalle ein Farbkunstwerk von 21 Meter Höhe und drei Meter Breite in den Farben Schwarz-Rot-Gold gestaltet. Die Farben wurden auf die Rückseite großer Glastafeln aufgetragen und erinnern - nicht ohne Hintersinn - an die Farben der deutschen Bundesflagge. Aber sowohl das hochrechteckige Format als auch die spiegelnden Glasflächen (in denen sich von einem bestimmten „point de vue“ aus die reale Bundesflagge vor dem Reichstagsgebäude spiegelt) machen deutlich, dass es sich nicht um die Abbildung einer Flagge handelt, sondern um ein autonomes Farbkunstwerk und der Künstler durch die Wahl und die Zusammenstellung der Farben eine den Betrachter irritierende „Wahrnehmungsfalle“ aufgestellt hat.
Richter gelingt es, mit der auf die Wandproportionen abgestimmten Größe seiner Arbeit und mit sparsamen Mitteln ein farbiges Gegengewicht zur Dominanz der Architektur in der Westeingangshalle zu schaffen und dem Auge des Betrachters einen Ruhepunkt in der belebten Halle zu bieten. Trotz ihrer Monumentalität fehlt der Arbeit jedes Pathos. Vielmehr spiegelt die Fragilität der Glasscheiben im materiellen und im übertragenen Sinne das stets gefährdete und daher stets neu zu gestaltende und zu schützende demokratische Gemeinwesen wider.

------------------
In the west entrance hall, visitors to the Reichstag building are greeted by works of art by Gerhard Richter. The artist faced the difficult task of asserting his work against a 30-meter-high wall. Gerhard Richter created a color artwork on one wall of the west entrance hall, 21 meters high and three meters wide, in the colors black, red, and gold. The colors were applied to the back of large glass panels and are reminiscent—not without ulterior motive—of the colors of the German federal flag. However, both the tall, rectangular format and the reflective glass surfaces (in which, from a certain "point de vue," the real federal flag in front of the Reichstag building is reflected) make it clear that this is not a depiction of a flag, but an autonomous color artwork, and that through the choice and combination of colors, the artist has created a "perceptual trap" that disorients the viewer.
By matching the size of his work to the wall's proportions and using economical means, Richter succeeds in creating a colorful counterbalance to the dominance of the architecture in the west entrance hall, offering the viewer a point of rest in the bustling hall. Despite its monumentality, the work lacks any pathos. Rather, the fragility of the glass panes, both materially and figuratively, reflects the democratic community, which is constantly at risk and therefore constantly in need of redesign and protection.
Una canción acompañada de un fotografía, la canción lo dice todo.
Pero cuando todo está oscuro y estás al borde del abismo, una luz da esperanza.
Hontoria de la Cantera es un agradable pueblecillo burgalés de aproximadamente 125 habitantes situado a apenas 20 kilómetros de la capital.
Su nombre le viene de unas impresionantes canteras que se explotaban ya en el siglo XI y de las que salieron las piedras necesarias para construir la Catedral de Burgos, una de las obras maestras del gótico.
La explotación de la mina se hacía excavando la montaña mediante el método de cámaras y pilares, por lo que quedaron enormes espacios de 20 metros de ancho y 5 de alto, ideales para proteger armamento, por lo que fueron usadas de polvorín por el ejército.
A song accompanied by a photograph, the song says it all.
But when all is dark and you're on the edge, a light gives hope.
Hontoria de la Cantera is a pleasant little town of Burgos of about 125 inhabitants, situated just 20 kilometers from the capital.
Its name comes from an impressive quarries were exploited as early as the eleventh century and of which came the stone needed to build the Cathedral of Burgos, one of the masterpieces of Gothic.
The Exploitation of the mine was digging up the mountain by room and pillar method, which left huge spaces of 20 meters wide and 5 high, ideal for protecting weapons, so they were used in the army depot.
Each day as I listen to and read the news I can barely stand the turmoil, violence and pathos that is presented. I do not know what to do with all of the feelings ... where do I go ... so I turn to nature and it rests my soul for a time. I do not know what I would do without it. What DO people do without it? How do they handle daily, hourly conflict and discord in their lives? I really don't know. I wonder this daily as I think of the millions of people whose lives are in constant distress which is thrust upon them through the mere chance of birthplace. I think how I know nothing of life ... how spoiled I am by the mere chance of my birthplace and not by anything I have done to deserve it.
This is a scene that brings a sense of tranquilty to my soul. I hope it does yours too.

I couldn't help but feel this fellow was contemplating the pathos of life. It had been raining, but the sun had come out, and there were birds everywhere -- frantically calling, defending territory, and gathering material for nest building. This fellow was not calling, but just watching the whole scene with that passive inscrutable expression.

Die Ausstellung VERGOLDET | DORÉ vereint Werke der zeitgenössischen Kunst, die sich mit dem Werk- und Farbstoff Gold auseinandersetzen und untersucht die damit verknüpften Vorstellungen von Wert und Symbolkraft. Ist die wiederkehrende Hinwendung zu einem traditionsaufgeladenen Material in der zeitgenössischen Kunst der Versuch, das Edelmetall vom historischen Erbe, von Prunk und Pathos zu befreien? Wird damit die Aussage „es ist nicht alles Gold, was glänzt“ überprüft, indem der stets begehrte und glänzende Werkstoff in andere Zusammenhänge übertragen oder verschoben wird? Mit VERGOLDET | DORÉ werden künstlerische Reaktionen zusammengetragen, die mit dem Werk-, aber auch Farbstoff in Verbindung gebracht werden. Dabei geht es weniger um Materialfetischismus oder Techniken, sondern vielmehr darum, mit künstlerischen Äußerungen und Interpretationen ganz unterschiedliche Assoziationsräume zu aktivieren und kritisches Denken anzustoßen. Die Arbeiten dieser Ausstellung reflektieren mit echtem und künstlichem Gold über alte und neue Allianzen und gesellschaftliche Transformationsprozesse zwischen Kommunikation und Identifikation. Es verschieben sich die klischeehaften Zitate und Bedeutungsebenen von Gold(en), ohne jedoch Geschichte zu überschreiben. Vor allem die Ewigkeit und Haltbarkeit von Gold wird infrage gestellt. Kritisch hinterfragt werden auch die Kapitalanlagen: Ist zum Beispiel vergoldete Kunst heute noch wertvoller und sind die glänzenden Pokale und Trophäen aus vergoldetem Metall bei gewachsenem Leistungsdruck ethisch noch haltbar? Ist alles nur noch veredelte Illusion? Oder zeichnet sich in der Debatte und Entwicklung um den Materialismus, zwischen Protz und Luxus, doch noch ein individueller Wertewandel in einer verstärkt von Kapital und Besitz geprägten Gesellschaft ab?

This tree has been photographed countless times as it overlooks the largest prehistoric ritual enclosure in Ireland.
Its known as the Giant's Ring and we visited it after I photographed poor old Pathos.
Not a lot to be seen as its a huge circular ring surrounded by a 12m earthwork bank.
Off centre, in the ring is a megalithic chamber with passage-tomb affinities, consisting of five orthostats, supporting a tilted capstone.
To the layman, a pile of rocks with a hole in the middle dating about 4000 years.
But I have an extremely vivid imagination and I could just imagine bonfires on top of the earthwork bank, torches held by villagers and the Druids in the centre performing their rituals.
With no written history, it means we will never know what went on here, but we can imagine.
Anyway, Mr. Killen did a terrific version of the tree and tomb www.flickr.com/photos/shanekillen/5348352173/ After seeing his, I thought I had better tart mine up a bit and give it some atmosphere.
NOT that we are competitive!

WHOOOOO HOOOO MADE FRONT PAGE! THANKS TO ARTIGAZO FOR LETTING ME KNOW
The palace reliefs were fixed to the walls of royal palaces forming continuous strips along the walls of large halls. The style apparently began after about 879 BC, when Ashurnasirpal II moved the capital to Nimrud, near modern Mosul in northern Iraq. Thereafter, new royal palaces, of which there was typically one per reign, were extensively decorated in this way for the roughly 250 years until the end of the Assyrian Empire. There was subtle stylistic development, but a very large degree of continuity in subjects and treatment.
Compositions are arranged on slabs, or orthostats, typically about 7 feet high, using between one and three horizontal registers of images, with scenes generally reading from left to right. The sculptures are often accompanied with inscriptions in cuneiform script, explaining the action or giving the name and extravagant titles of the king. Heads and legs are shown in profile, but torsos in a front or three-quarters view, as in earlier Mesopotamian art. Eyes are also largely shown frontally. Some panels show only a few figures at close to life-size, such scenes usually including the king and other courtiers, but depictions of military campaigns include dozens of small figures, as well as many animals and attempts at showing landscape settings.
Campaigns focus on the progress of the army, including the fording of rivers, and usually culminates in the siege of a city, followed by the surrender and paying of tribute, and the return of the army home. A full and characteristic set shows the campaign leading up to the siege of Lachish in 701; it is the "finest" from the reign of Sennacherib, from his palace at Nineveh and now in the British Museum. Ernst Gombrich observed that none of the many casualties ever come from the Assyrian side. Another famous sequence there shows the Lion Hunt of Ashurbanipal, in fact the staged and ritualized killing by King Ashurbanipal of lions already captured and released into an arena, from the North Palace at Nineveh. The realism of the lions has always been praised, and the scenes are often regarded as "the supreme masterpieces of Assyrian art", although the pathos modern viewers tend to feel was perhaps not part of the Assyrian response.
There are many reliefs of minor supernatural beings, called by such terms as "winged genie", but the major Assyrian deities are only represented by symbols. The "genies" often perform a gesture of purification, fertilization or blessing with a bucket and cone; the meaning of this remains unclear., Especially on larger figures, details and patterns on areas such as costumes, hair and beards, tree trunks and leaves, and the like, are very meticulously carved. More important figures are often shown larger than others, and in landscapes more distant elements are shown higher up, but not smaller than, those in the foreground, though some scenes have been interpreted as using scale to indicate distance. Other scenes seem to repeat a figure in a succession of different moments, performing the same action, most famously a charging lion. But these were apparently experiments that remain unusual.
The king is often shown in narrative scenes, and also as a large standing figure in a few prominent places, generally attended by winged genies. A composition repeated twice in what is traditionally called the "throne-room" (though perhaps it was not) of Ashurbanipal's palace at Nimrud shows a "Sacred Tree" or "Tree of Life" flanked by two figures of the king, with winged genies using the bucket and cone behind him. Above the tree one of the major gods, perhaps Ashur the chief god, leans out of a winged disc, relatively small in scale. Such scenes are shown elsewhere on the robe of the king, no doubt reflecting embroidery on the real costumes, and the major gods are normally shown in discs or purely as symbols hovering in the air. Elsewhere the tree is often attended to by genies.
Women are relatively rarely shown, and then usually as prisoners or refugees; an exception is a "picnic" scene showing Ashurbanipal with his queen. The many beardless royal attendants can probably be assumed to be eunuchs, who ran much of the administration of the empire, unless they also have the shaved heads and very tall hats of priests. Kings are often accompanied by several courtiers, the closest to the king probably often being the appointed heir, who was not necessarily the oldest son.
The enormous scales of the palace schemes allowed narratives to be shown at an unprecedentedly expansive pace, making the sequence of events clear and allowing richly detailed depictions of the activities of large numbers of figures, not to be paralleled until the Roman narrative column reliefs of the Column of Trajan and Column of Marcus Aurelius.

La meteoropatia, dal greco μετέωρον (meteoron, cosa che è, che avviene in alto) e πάθος (pathos, passione, malattia), è un termine che sta ad indicare un insieme di disturbi psichici e fisici di tipo neurovegetativo che si verificano in determinate condizioni e variazioni del tempo meteorologico.
"Dolor" by Theodore Roethke
I have known the inexorable sadness of pencils,
Neat in their boxes, dolor of pad and paper weight,
All the misery of manilla folders and mucilage,
Desolation in immaculate public places,
Lonely reception room, lavatory, switchboard,
The unalterable pathos of basin and pitcher,
Ritual of multigraph, paper-clip, comma,
Endless duplication of lives and objects.
And I have seen dust from the walls of institutions,
Finer than flour, alive, more dangerous than silica,
Sift, almost invisible, through long afternoons of tedium,
Dropping a fine film on nails and delicate eyebrows,
Glazing the pale hair, the duplicate grey standard faces.
L'Oratore di questo meeting non conosceva le sette regole di Donovan e la Signora presente in platea come dire … si è lievemente appisolata...
Il maestro dell’oratoria, Cicerone, sarebbe oggi, nell'era digitale, un buon relatore?
Jeremy Donovan suggerisce sette regole per tenere una conferenza convincente e coinvolgente:
1) Sii breve e vai dritto al punto.
2) Utilizza il format del viaggio o dell’anticipazione.
3) Due strutture narrative di base sono vincenti:
quella del viaggio, articolata in tre parti (chiamata all’azione, superamento degli ostacoli, soluzione) ed il format dell’anticipazione, nel quale l’oratore introduce una teoria e poi presenta una serie di casi a supporto.
4) Non usare le slide: “le slide rompono la connessione tra presentatore ed audience”, andrebbero quindi utilizzate solo se documentano i dati meglio di quanto non si farebbe a voce.
5) Fai vivere al pubblico un’ampia gamma di emozioni.
6) Utilizza strategicamente l’umorismo: lo humor spezza la tensione.
7) Sfrutta il potere delle pause: la padronanza nel gestire i silenzi può aggiungere pathos.
Le regole di Donovan, con tutte le differenze del caso, non si discostano poi tanto da quelle che Marco Tullio Cicerone descriveva nel De Oratore: esporre i fatti in modo vivace ed ironico in modo da coinvolgere emotivamente gli ascoltatori suscitando in loro una varietà di emozioni.
"“Il nostro entusiasmo amoroso viene sempre vissuto dagli altri come una manifestazione pericolosa, destabilizzante, che può mettere in crisi i loro schemi e strutture relazionali.”
