una mosca che sembra scrivere su un muretto. Poesia, prosa o saggistica?

The automatic writing project started out as an activity among friends and locals. I would write a line someone else would write a line and so on... Then people would overhear us and ask if they could participate and write something too (which surprised me) of course I said "yes!" At that point I realized that lots of people have something to say. I started asking strangers to add entries, then I graduated to offering people $1.00 to participate, some people do not accept the dollar and some pay me a $1.00 (paying it forward). It's becoming quite a lovely, surprising and compelling project. People from many walks of life are participating: homeless, a news reporter, academics, doctors, drug addicts, lawyers, tourists etc... People have written things in my journal that they'd never say out loud, not to anyone. Some of it's so sad, some intriguing, hilarious and so on... At the end of the day, every one of these people understand that their entries are being uploaded to the internet and are comforted in knowing that they will be heard. I have no idea where this is going, but it's going just fine! FYI: English is not everyone's first language here. I will be illustrating the book/journal after the text is done. I hope that everyone who reads these entries learns something about people, mostly that we never know what someone else is going through.

I must apologise for this bit of late night drivel. I would say I won't do it again, but I probably will.
Until you write them down…. Dreams are just dreams.
I’m created to listen, understand and help you make those dreams into a reality! All you need to do is write…write, and write some more.
I wear a rich coffee brown reclaimed leather coat, with natural forms on the edges left intact. Open me up and you’ll find I begin and end with the cover of an authentic vintage sheet music book featuring the song ‘Until’. Originating from a music shoppe in Invercargill, New Zealand, you’ll find the business stamp on my inside back cover.
Since dreams are endless, there are 160 sheets (320 pages) of hand-torn, tea-stained 110 gsm paper on which to write, all stitched with archival linen thread. You can write away to your hearts content, and my pages will welcome all forms of dry media. I’ll then bundle them up with my triple leather tie so you can be sure they’ll always be there for you to check back on.
Measuring 4 ½ x 5 3/8th’s of an inch, with a 1 ¼ inch spine, I’ll happily snuggle into bags, panniers satchels and glove boxes ready for that moment when inspiration hits.

I used to write bands whenever I was in a car accident and their song was on, when I didn't understand a lyric and they didn't have a lyric sheet, when I was bored, if I had extra stamps, generally anytime at all..but especially when I really loved a record. I was a little too young to get into Black Flag on a "hey let's all listen to Six Pack and piss our parents off" level. All the really big bands of that wave had broken up (Black Flag, Minutemen, Minor Threat, Dead Kennedys....but not Naked Raygun!!) so it was more like discovering these bands, realizing they werent around anymore, then getting swamped by the million or so side projects / new bands / solo efforts. I remember the day I got the "Lifetime" LP from Rollins Band at Rhymes Records on Broadway in New Haven for three or four bucks used and thinking "wow, this is that scary Black Flag dude" (not realizing there were like 12 scary Black Flag dudes and a terrifying dame, three or four of whom were singers at one point or another) and "wow...what a shitty band name..it's like Van Halen". Something about the starkness of the sleeve, the layout and abuse of Helvetica..just made me fork over the dollars and take it home. When I dropped the needle, it literally made my jaw clench..it was so awesome in its napalm-tone. It sounded like they were right there in my bedroom and that the paint would peel from the walls any second. Here's a clip for your ears.
For those of you wishing there were better alternatives May I present Zachariah Harris, representative from Kentucky, giver of courage, soother of troubles, bi-partisan, and though "straight" always available to the LGBTQ community.
And let's face it, no more "empty" than some others we could name. Now if Jim or Jack will accept the VP slot we'll be on a roll!

Performance at the United Nations Office at Geneva - Feb 23, 24, 25.
In 1948, the General Assembly of the United Nations adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Over 50 years later, in a joint project with Professor Kendall Thomas, The Forsythe Company focuses on the act of inscribing basic rules for both the individual and society. «Human Writes» is a performative installation that reflects the history of human rights and the continuing obstacles to their full implementation.
(Imanuel Schipper)
The Geneva performance of Human Writes was undertaken with the support of teh UN office at Geneva in cooperation with the Permanent Missions of Switzerland, the United States, and Germany.

U.S. Mission Photos by Eric Bridiers
I write a weekly column for takingthefloridaplunge.com which features my images. This is this weeks photo:
I tried to capture a photo of the chefs cooking at ‘Ohana on a previous trip. When I got home the images were blurry and unusable. I made it a misson this time to capture the chefs in action.
I always approach photographing people delicately because you never know what their reaction is going to be. Luckily these Cast Members were all to willing to participate and even stoked the fire up for me. I got a few solid images and had a really hard time deciding which one to pick. So I picked all three.
“How can you pick three images for Magical Photo Wednesday?!?” you ask?
My column, My rules ;)
Which image is your favorite?
Hope you enjoy and thanks for looking!
