The Zeitgeist Movement Continues: Addendum and SuperStruct

   

Another solid, well researched film by Peter Joseph. You should consider Re-Watching Zeitgeist, the Movie also. Well, you know, only if you want to learn some truths about the world we live in and are apart of. I highly recommend every person (for the sake of humanity) to engage themselves in this sort of difficult process.

Solutions from the movie:

1. Expose the Fed Cartel. Why should you trust the banking system? They have given us just enough rope to hang ourselves with and now they are seemingly in a state of urgency but still spending big time.

2. Boycott News Networks. Who are they to tell you what to believe in and how to think? They use brainwashing techniques peeps. Watch Democracy Now instead. And Always Use and Protect the Internet.

3. Boycott the Military. Learn that those enlisted (it's not their fault) have been misled to work for the corporations who control the government. Don't buy all the propaganda that they are fighting for your liberty and freedom bullshit. They may have done so at one time... but now, they are sadly just pawns. If any brother of mine ever.....NEVERMIND....just know, that I would fuckin fight!!

4. Boycott Energy Companies. Get off the grid. Convert your vehicles. It's not as hard as it seems. They just want us to think that. Do the research ladies and gentlemen.

5. Reject the Political System. Focus on working to dissolve the outdated system of Politics, in favor of technological redesign and intelligent management of the Earth's Resources. No, you don't have to join a cult or be the jack ass of an anarchist. But you should learn how to self sustain and teach others how to do the same. Things like growing our own food and making our own clothes (interests me). Plus, we should all go camping! Realize that we have enough of everything we need to share with everybody globally. There is no reason we can't use our technological reservoir of knowledge in a healthier way instead (of killing each other).

6. Create Critical Mass. Join the movement. Learn about and/or Play SuperStruct to get your mind brainstorming about the future we will help create. Oh and do yoga, smile, dance, go canoeing, paint, write, keep baking cookies, and try veganism too. It will help you along the way. Really.

Our Ultimate Stronghold: TIME

         
Poodwaddle.com

I can not believe I just discovered this site. Does anyone know how long this has been around? I like the developer Shane's thoughts' processing...and how he made all of this come together so neatly. In his words, his site is his "brainchild, hobbie, baby, headache, and family run business. I have no staff or office. I don't even own a good suit. I am just a solo lunatic dodging manual labor by punching keys for a living."

Awesome. Great. Glorious.

How Our Lives Unwind So Quickly

To remember

the Stillness, There is no Need...to Hurry

To think more clearly....

Leave behind the debris

For Floating

The Tree Will Grow On

Found this on Sentient Developments. The animation is by Leo de Wijs, a Dutch illustrator/designer/animator. Watch the whole thing. It's awesome.

Oh and besides pulling the weeds, getting bit by ants, taking a bubble bath, reading wordy ass Anais (Novel of the Future), and eating lots of raw fruits and vegetables, I have done nothing significant today. Isn't that great?

Into The Wild

Lastnight, we watched Into The Wild. Finally. Then we went and laid under the stars, the fierce wind blowing, the chimes singing lullabies until about 3 am, so soothing. His story became our story. We were hurt for him and his family.

He has become what he intended to become. A story teller. Now, we feel alive and satisfied by his freedom. Forever...Christopher Johnson McCandless

Thank you Jamie:)

Skitt

Me, Skittles, and my computer screen
 
He is empty too
but all I need

I'm am through trying to prove anything to anyone
or pretending I can be anything to anybody but me

I cant wrap wires around intangible things
OR add fuel to fires that were never even burning

AND Loyalty and Trust is just a joke
BUT only because you continuously think it so

i will not
NOT be me
I will not be scared to share who I am with Technology

The name of none and everything

That is real
This is
Freedom

And

I AM

This

the beginning

disaster fields of hope :)

So, I don't blog as much (but i do make time for cutting, pasting, yoga, and violin playing). 

I have a 9-5 job. In a law firm. And I can't say that I am not actually enjoying the professionalism of it all. Or maybe I do just like dressing up, wearing heels, and feeling important. It's just another phase, an experience I am embracing and enjoying completely. Walking downtown, I am in a bigger city. But of course, I'm not yet really. I sit in conference rooms daily overlooking the glistening bay listening to some stern, raspy, too-many-cigar-smoking voices, talk about nothing. blah blah "briefing".

Just Gibberish:

Money, corruption, lies, DEATH.
How none of us can escape it.
Firsthand, devil's work with private jets.
But truly staying positive
These are merely whispers in the wind
Still hear nothing?
But Thanks again for listening :)

I'm finding further proof that the world is full of SH*T Nonsense and Laws
And millions of particles that only clog
For all the digital and document evidence can't come undone

I do feel respected where I work though. And the people there are real people too. It did not start off like that of course. I know I appeared to be 'just another girl'. Fuck all the feminist talk. I won't even go there. But I do know how to use a computer more than most of the men in the office. I get inside. Trial presentations, web development, accounting, political event coordinating, firm re-branding and establishment,  etc. etc.

Anyway, I am still living in my brothers rooms (since August). I got a new car, A Toyota Camry. Yes, even though I hate driving, would rather be flying and doing my part for the environment. I'm even kinder to the sea and the flowers and the leaves.

Being here again, I've been able to get back in touch with two amazing girlfriends (who both have kids!) which has further validated the fact that the child bearing route is not definitely for me. I'll serve better as an auntie or a fairy godmother in dreams.

Overall, I am still not sure why I blog, or why you read. All I know is that I am more in love with this life, deciding on my own mistakes and what the future can be. This a recording. I know I don't have to explain this.

Believe me, I will always return! And yes, I admit I am 'chaotic' more than often. But this is who I am. Not trying to please anybody. I go where I want to go, when I want to go, spend the bit of money I Myself have earned and I am smiling at lil' strangers again, my once mastered sport.

Generally, I am happy and feel very orderly and lucidly I will dream. ALWAYS Moving on: I dance best with technology.

       From Foreignerd on Development in Online Identity: (to the point)

But what is so wrong with chaos? I (ahem) am instead offering a simple proposal: eradicate the notion of the singular online identity. Abolish the idea of identity altogether. Become a network of synthetic projects, authored by no one, which exist in a mirroring sub-network of various web entities. Start a webcomic written by a robot, a news site by a Portugese man, a podcast recorded by three women (all you), and a blog about the nothingness of life on a space station. Stop worrying if they’re consistent. Stop worrying if your meat-space self will directly benefit. Embrace anonymity, become a fictional organization, launch a thousand projects and keep track of them all.

Look familiar?

Really, I miss blogging. I twit more now than ever... but I will be back here soon. Thanks to you for reading:)

Ready Ready Ready

A feeling so intense came over me when I saw this woman.
Something happened. To think I was complaining about turning 25. How childish of me. Her strength was all pervading. Powerful. Her hands on her head. Tired. But not miserable...As you can see: She is pure light.

The best part of the day was the above moment. July 10th. Always reflecting. The strangers' energy was beyond healing. That baby smiling... for me. The couple enjoying their grandson. I love seeing. I love living. I love.

   

As Once The Winged Energy

      

As once the winged energy of delight
      carried you over childhood's dark abysses,
      now beyond your own life build the great
      arch of unimagined bridges.
      
      Wonders happen if we can succeed
      in passing through the harshest danger;
      but only in a bright and purely granted
      achievement can we realize the wonder.
      
      To work with Things in the indescribable
      relationship is not too hard for us;
      the pattern grows more intricate and subtle,
      and being swept along is not enough.
      
      Take your practiced powers and stretch them out
      until they span the chasm between two
      contradictions...For the god
      wants to know himself in you.

'Ryan' by Chris Landreth

I was really amazed. Tonight I decided to turn on the television. After searching... searching... searching... for something decent to watch,  I caught a one hour special about the artist Ryan Larkin.

From Link TV:
A gentleman panhandler. One of the pioneers of Canadian animation. Oscar nominee. Poor beggar. An artist unable to create. God observing the world. Fallen angel. Arrogant. Shy. Broken. Not destroyed. 

Ryan (below), directed by Chris Landreth, is an animated tribute to Canadian animator Ryan Larkin. Thirty years ago, at the National Film Board of Canada, Ryan produced some of the most influential animated films of his time. But before his death from lung cancer in February, Larkin was living on welfare and panhandling for spare change in downtown Montreal. How could such an artistic genius follow this path?

 
In Ryan we hear the voice of Ryan Larkin and people who have known him, but these voices speak through strange, twisted, broken and disembodied 3D generated characters... people whose appearances are bizarre, humorous or disturbing. Although incredibly realistic and detailed, Ryan was created and animated without the use of live action footage, rotoscoping or motion capture...but instead from an original, personal, hand animated three-dimensional world which Chris calls 'psychological realism.'

A world encapsulated in the words of Anais Nin: We don't see things as they are. We see things as we are.

Watch it when you get a chance. If you have not already seen it.
