everything
cute man. cute. is this guy gay? he’s so… so.. so…peppy? I’m into it!
admission through art.
nice.
when someone shows you who they are…..believe them.
I believe every human being has a source of light within them. MLK said: There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us. Ignoring realities is usually problematic. A wise one said something to me a while back and I didn’t get it at the time. But it finally hit me. They said, ”when someone shows you who they are…. believe them.” Deep deep deep. But you know what? I met manifest reality…that showed me what was true and what was right and what was not… life is so interesting. ba da bump.
expectations, control and all that stuff no more
life is good in sahara land… that’s really all there is to say. The diary of the funk has come to an end. now it’s the diary of a funky funkity funk. massive learning curve. fizzle shizzle nizzle. the whole jumping in head first is totally my style but it brings me mass destruction of a nuclear kind. I’m not doing it anymore. Sahara is feeling pretty happy. could it be? could it be? it could. happy to be free and happy to be me.
I’m starting my latest project. July being my deadline. I won’t be naming it but i’m feeling fantastically creative and inspired about it. It goes back to the guy/girl this/that that I so seem to understand through personal experience. Yipee yo. Let’s go with the flow.
manifest its destiny
i heard these notes on the piano…and it reminded me of a little bird…and it reminded me of a poem i wrote years ago…
you know what the wise china man said and shit…”a bird does not sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.”
here’s a little poetry in motion…
giving life to the sound
i’m not totally in love with this dudes music, but m ward is mind blowingly creative…with vision…he pushes the limits of creativity without rules…has kind of a visionary producer like thing going on….and any one that will take some made-up taoist phrasing and turn it into an alternative folky song is alright by me. “chinese translation” doesn’t really suck you in right when you hear it…listen to it ..
doo doo doo…now watch the video.
and how can you not fall in love? and with these lyrics…
“What do you do with the pieces of a broken heart?”
“How can a man like me remain in the light?”
really i’ve been wondering the same things myself… but that’s not my point…my point is…pictures with music…you can take one thing that’s alright and with another layer turn it into something just right. vice versa that’s movies. dialogue, images and add music. makes you think about what’s being said. so music is the spice…in music videos music is the main entree…in this case the pictures are the spices that bring out the flavor of the main entree. what am i saying? i’m saying i now like this song after seeing that video. that’s what i’m saying.
Leave it to Mr Hotlanta to always find the best shit.
loneliness is down there not up here….
a wise man once said. he didn’t live it, but he said it. and he said something like “people that are creating don’t have time to go out all the time because they’re busy creating”. He didn’t say it that well but he said something along those lines…it stayed with me. i outgrew the scene long ago, just because i realized i didn’t actually like the strangers. In LA you have to stop going out at some point otherwise you can just get a loser tattoo on your forehead and go jump off a building.
And then there’s the view…
…that never gets old. and this!!
