Playful Video – Fun With Form
I make videos for fun. The images are often a series of playful mistakes or coincidences. The final form seldom represents the original plan. Of course, I am always pleased when other people watch and share one of the series of mistakes and coincidences. It is just playful fun with form using this marvelous canvas of technology that allows almost anyone to play with creation of form in a manner that was once only the privilege of a few.
The video below was the most “popular” pieces of form play of last year, probably because it features Eckhart Tolle. He is the spiritual teacher whose voice lead me out of denial and alcoholism. Had I not been lifted, I would not have enjoyed the dance of the humming birds that hot summer afternoon. The moment of sharing a bit of beauty with you, here and now, would not be happening.
Enjoy Yourself!
Playful Thought
The first snowfall comes to this part of Wisconsin.
I am waiting for the birdies to show up with their cute, little shovels.
ROBUST – a word – a coffee – an economy
 |
1540s, from L. robustus “strong and hardy,” originally “oaken,” from robur, robus “hard timber, strength,” also “a special kind of oak,” named for its reddish heartwood, from L. ruber “red” (cf. robigo “rust”). Robustious (1540s) was a common form in 17c. (cf. “Hamlet” iii.2); it fell from use by mid-18c., but was somewhat revived by mid-19c. antiquarian writers
Remember how the word cropped up with the sound of percolators and the smell of coffee?
Even if you don’t remember, robust lived in the world of the aroma of coffee and Mrs. Olson.
Then along came the health care debate that snatched robust from the sensory past and put it smack dap in the hands of the public debate as observed Bruce Reed in the Slatest
| Experiments with multimedia journalism. The Slatest Notes from the political sidelines. Robust, the unlikely new leader in health reform buzzwords. When House Democrats rolled out a new health reform bill last week, much of the focus was on one word not found in its 1,990 pages—robust. “No ‘Robust’ Public Option,” declared the Christian Science Monitor. “Not enough votes for the ‘robust’ public option,” reported Politico. Even the top-secret House whip count that leaked to the press used the same exact term: “Whip Survey—Health Reform With ‘Robust’ Public Option.” |
Now every candidate for every office has a robust idea, pitch, or plan to change, transform, stream-line, shrink, or revitalize our economic brew.
Have a robust weekend !

THINK – I found an elf??
| In a small village near by near the Black River there us a cave-like rock formation which is quite miraculous in itself. This is the actual and untouched digital picture of the interior of the formation.
When I downloaded it and looked at the left side of the picture and near the bottom I noticed this floating figure…do you see it? (Please say: “yes”.) So I cropped out the portion of interest and futzed with it a bit on Photo Shop…
Did we find an elf or what? |
