series within a series

love it when series turn themselves into series within themselves.

when everything finally connects.

years worth of work tying into each other.

..

realizing that perhaps your not insane. that yes you did have a plan after all.

yes.

m.

atmosphere.

mountain hiking today.

refreshing.

nice.

good to clear out the head in the desert. so much life there....

reboot.

an idea.

after a day of fucking around with video clips with a discovered version of after effects that actually works ( for how long? i don't know...) a few hours laying on the floor and staring at nothing.... and a few hours of laying on the futon outside,

it hit.

an idea that consumed the better part of the night, and surprising enough, seems to be a fairly decent idea that has some weight.

sturdy.

what it is... .

we will have to come back to this one. at a time when it is finished... yes?

ok.

sounds good.

now. for video clips....

i don't claim to be a great video editor. nor even mildly good. in fact probably pretty damn bad.

but i have always had a weak spot for video installations.

and i want to make one....

so. there you go.

also, it is kind of the point. with these tools that are so available, and so readily offered and advertised, " to make you a great 'musician' , ' director', 'artist', or 'whatever' their target audience is the goal is to make everybody capable of creating something unique. everybody now has a chance to be an artist, musician, or director.... all thanks to these tools that have be given.

almost, in a sense, taking the uniqueness out of a thing as it becomes more mass produced.

art has long been industrialized... but it has gone a step further now, in the fact that every one now has the chance to 'be the artist'. with a few swipes, you got something neat.

don't get me wrong, i love my ipad, iphone, and all my mac shit.

the point is...

is it unique anymore if everyone can do it?

is there any room to be individual and different anymore?

very hard to be....

been there done that. blagh blagh blagh.

but so...

in any case.

that is somewhat one of the points of this new series i work on....

among others...

it is just one big shmorgus board of mixed media stuff.

good habits.

good morning las vegas.

good morning wireless electronic land...

spent the last hour or two watching apple how to videos for osx. what is funny to me is that the video help is so retarded, if people can not figure those particular things out all on their lonesomes, why buy a mac?

well no. i can understand. used to work at apple store... way back when... and some people really are just .... well.

this week i wanted to be exceptionally productive. however, i find the more i have in my head that i want to get out and want to do, the less i actually do. then i get a panic attack. scramble to make something. then tear it up. or trash and delete it. then make something new, then throw it away. the past two days have been this way. hm.

how

ever.

i seem to be finding a balance at maintaining good habits this week.

no urges for pain killers or any of the such. even though my crooked spine hurts like hell and is keeping me up all hours... but the clarity that has returned is so much more enjoyable.

watched a documentary last week.... called.... well. don't remember the name.

it was by carl sagan.

what i found to be the most interesting is that the information they taught us solemn human beings with in the early 80's late 70's regarding time and space, galaxies, super novas and the beginning of time... the information is relatively the same today....

meaning A). we have figured it all out back then. and were set.

or much more likely,

B). our race is much more interested in spending money for fighting other humans, killing in the name of something to be regarded to make sense. the human race would much rather dump cash into sports and hollywood, .... the list can really go on here...

we have spent virtually nothing into the research of the ground breaking ideas and truths we discovered back then about the cosmos, time/space, the universe and how there is actually proof we exist within everything.... why ?

it just boggles my head.. but not really i guess.

we are destined for brutality and cruelty, no?

destruction.

of others.

even to ourselves.

so lets take comfort in the ideology of jesus christ or what other zeus you believe in, and not think about the scary idea we are just an equation in a larger pond of life.

holonomic theory

The holonomic brain theory, originated by psychologist Karl Pribram and initially developed in collaboration with physicist David Bohm, is a model for human cognition that is drastically different from conventionally accepted ideas: Pribram and Bohm posit a model of cognitive function as being guided by a matrix of neurological wave interference patterns situated temporally between holographic Gestalt perception and discrete, affective, quantum vectors derived from reward anticipation potentials.

Pribram was originally struck by the similarity of the hologram idea and Bohm's idea of the implicate order in physics, and contacted him for collaboration. In particular, the fact that information about an image point is distributed throughout the hologram, such that each piece of the hologram contains some information about the entire image, seemed suggestive to Pribram about how the brain could encode memories.[1] Pribram was encouraged in this line of speculation by the fact that DeValois and DeValois[2] had found that "the spatial frequency encoding displayed by cells of the visual cortex was best described as a Fourier transform of the input pattern."[3] This holographic idea led to the coining of the term "holonomic" to describe the idea in wider contexts than just holograms.
