Dreams

Have you ever sat back and thought about the reoccurring images, themes, and sounds that happen in your dreams? For some reason early this morning after I let my dogs out to do their "business" I did and here is what I came up with:

1) there is always some king, ruler, leader. For example, last night the ruler was John Fahey. How I knew this was because he had the crown over his head.

2) animals leading a revolution.

3) Phoenix. The mythological creature not the place.

4) Always silent except for background music.

5) Ants.

6) Usually there is either a person or animal wandering around reciting poetry, which I can only tell because there are speech bubbles over their heads.

7) Most times the locations have very few people. Even if it's in a location like a city I usually only notice one or two people.

Last week was lovely, aside from one day off due to ice. Got some interesting photos:





Went out and supported our tennis team and on Saturday went out to watch our baseball teams play during a scrimmage with Poly.

Sunday was quite peaceful. In the lower 70's, my wife, the "beasties", and myself spent the day outside. Read a lot in "The Tao of Wu" by RZA and watched several inspiring artsy movies like "The Cats of Mirikitani".

Got some work done in two altered books, on two paintings, and an orchestrated piece of music.

01.31.2011

I just couldn't do it. I tried switching over to a different blog/website provider that charges but I just couldn't justify that $99 a year.

Weekend was awesome. Saturday, 01.29.2011, I auditioned for Stone Machine Electric, a rock/doom band. I fooled them enough to let me join them.

Sunday, 01.30.2011, allergies kept me indoors instead of outside in the beautiful weather but I didn't let that ruin my day. Got me a new used bass, Ibanez Soundgear 4 string, it's not fancy but it's wonderful to play. Got some work done on a new video piece and some new music, that hopefully will be posted soon. Also, watched some good Kurosawa flicks.

Amping up for 02.01.2011, the RPM Challenge.
