Story about naps.

Patterns infinite, zooming in and out.

Kids toys through the decades, playing virtually.

Learning to see, hear, levels for ages and such within.
Both virtual and reality games.
Perception programs.

Investigations of the dots on a sidewalk.

Histories of migrations and immigrants.

Stories of various cultures at noon, telling sense of time as noon travels over the world.
(In black book, girl on the plane)

Travels of some camera.
Magical or just the history of it.

Critical mass or just some morning commute.

Legs of people on the bus.

Profiles and backs of heads at shows, symphony, conferences.

A giant catalogue of actions: sports, spectators, driving, dancing, cleaning, shopping, sleeping and thinking.

Peoples' clothing blends with the background or just an outline, see only arms and legs or whatever

People:
Shape of head, nose shows race, size, shape of eyes

birds in a cheerleader formation

story of hats

bad avocado series
curious spider
dizzy flies

all cameras assembled

Landscapes

of my digital and analog lives. Both are devices to examine and inspire one another.

I am currently, and have in the past, created digital mash-ups of drawings within my sketchbooks. Pages taken from disparate experiences, combined, they show what I have learned and seen. These are the landscapes which I have shared with you.

With each new experience we allow ourselves, there is possibility for self-examination and improvement. As our lives are split between the screen on which you read these words and everything else around it, I am embarking on a study of the possibility of each.

I will document the organization of these efforts on this blog.

Next Steps:

The choreography within technology:

A view of an urban landscape minus architecture, showing only the mechanics: elevators, mass transit, appliances, electrical wires. This choreography of the contained fire.

Baton Twirling:

First person, complete with the blinks that allow us to understand what is happening, a story within a website where the individual's decisions and movements dictate what happens next.

Sketchbooks:

What to do with these?

Photography:

Illustration of America as the landing page: exploration based photography, share what I saw in each city. Combine with maps or exact coordinates?

Analog

Observations:

I wrote: Furiously, he wrote down her every feature. Every movement, a judgement.

Man with pen pocket exploding, highlighting everything on the page.

Home where I write this, where you might read this, where you undress the outside and others. Where muscles relax. How does it affect someone without their own space. When the public space is your private space. Meet more of the homeless in Golden Gate Park.
Graffiti:

Transparencies on a window.

Draw in freshly laid concrete. Freshly lay concrete.

Typeface:

Stippling on lineoleum cut

Texture is created by the physical transformation of an object. A visual experience that communicates emotion.

Everything created is a celebration of the possible.

Innovation fills a, necessity.

Artists that organize, invent. Organization gives one perspective.

A decision is the courage to give meaning to past experiences.

Imagination is limited by vernacular.

The role of a creator is to show us a new perspective on our relationships.
To expand that vernacular.

All studies are of a language- understanding a way to move and think to communicate a belief. Nail polish, taking public transit, the Our Father.

A learned skillset is meditation through repetition.

Tension is the inspiration amongst generations. Our inspiration for evolution.

Evolving is shifting our idea of time and how we best use it. Thinking about time.

Evolution is all that matters.

Everything that we do is a form of movement, and it all begins at the core.

Life

In love is in reason.
A love is a reason. A big ass laugh is finding balance in all of those reasons.

Think about whether or not to think about love.

Inspiring another is the sharing of knowledge and perspective because of a faith in their beliefs.

Currency is defined within relationships we create for ourselves.

Without a creative outlet we seek drama in our lives and in what we see in order to feel alive.

Passion is empowered honesty.

The beat is the rhythm of discovering what we find to be beautiful.

Cartwheels are an effective mode of transit.
(We all decide what we consider to be civil)

Finding luck is in appreciating it. Truly seeing it.

Look up.

Whistle.

Stories give experience context to allow another the ability to distill the learning into their own.

Everything is a part of the landscape of history.

Learn about time (everyone's). Read about it.
