back to a plan

Ironically, even though last weeks effort was only so so at best, it has provided me with enough raw materials, enough kernels of good ideas, to propel me into a new project. I am excited again.

this weeks project will utilize some photo's of book covers that I took at my job at the CARM archive. the photo's will provide the wall to a never ending hallway...

The music is all ready composed. a kind of reverse guitar piece.

I think that this could have been a lot better. But its good to do something again... its been a while.
I can go on to think about the next one...

project argus

the other week I took some photo's of the old Melbourne newspaper 'The Argus'
and it is only now that I'm putting those photos into action. The new piece is rendering as I write. Its nothing terribly complex, but just something to get me into the swing of things.
Moving forward

its a new week

I was at work the other day, and just as I was parking up my transporter to take a break Chin, my workmate brought to my attention the fact that somebody had arranged the spare transporters all neatly in a row...

I was immeadiately struck by the last lines of a Elizabeth Bishop poam I had read many years ago about a filling station.

Somebody embroidered the doily.
Somebody waters the plant,
or oils it, maybe. Somebody
arranges the rows of cans
so that they softly say:
ESSO--SO--SO--SO

to high-strung automobiles.
Somebody loves us all.

This in turn made me think about Frank Llyod Wright's 'gas station'....

no more deamon face

Clooney.
The icon of our generation...

this is what I look like every morning, before I wash my face and shake it back into shape...
