Consciousness is an amazing no-thing. Folks often point at “chaos” and entropy as forces of destruction, but don’t often consider that the opposite of entropy is consciousness. Entropy has no explanation for the existence of toasters in the world.

listened to M watching dvd movie of “Mists of Avalon”. Been a long time since I read it. Its depiction of the Arthurian legend from a Pagan perspective is still cool. Loreena McKennitt has always been associated, for me, with the time of my life when I was playing more in those circles, so it seemed quite natural for the soundtrack.

Ayup.. that Shel Silverstein… not the one i was looking for, but this one was new to me.
Yee ha!!!
OK. My very first edited video. Just discovered that my computer has “Windows Movie Maker”. Got all the clips from Google images and the music from my CD.
DUNNO MUCH ABOUT COPYRIGHTS, SO PLEASE INFORM ME BEFORE DELETING THIS VIDEO OR MY ACCOUNT!!! PLEASE.
I love Shel’s work. His death was as devestating to me as Jim Henson’s. He wrote children’s stories. But he was an adult. He knew how to appeal to adults both by relating to them and reminding them of their childhood.
I read his stories as a child. I’ve read/heard other things as I got older. Shel was a jester who appealed to all ages.
His private life was just that; private. I respect that but… I wish he had lived in MY neighborhood.

Anyone remember the mac screen saver AfterDark? (mmm flying toasters) It let you remix pieces of different savers together into something new. One of them had a meadow that transformed through the seasons. I liked to add just the butterflies from another saver (cats chasing butterflies) to this. Butterflies flying around in a wintry setting was just the right amount of surreal for me.

Sometimes I get on a theme… Anyone who likes Brian Eno’s ambient music and owns an iPhone or iPod touch owes it to themselves to spend the $3 for “Bloom”. Co-written by Brian Eno, it’s sounds a little like this only it’s loops of a synthesized piano and you can add stuff into it interactively. Here ends the plug.

Some amazing houses….
Lyrics : The dimming of the light makes the picture clearer It’s just an old photograph There’s nothing to hide When the world was just beginning
I memorized a face so it’s not forgotten I hear the wind whistlin’ Come back anytime And we’ll mix our lives together Heaven knows- what keeps mankind alive Every hand- goes searching for its partner In crime- under chairs and behind tables Connecting- to places we have known I’m looking for a
Home- where the wheels are turning Home- why I keep returning Home- where my world is breaking in two Home- with the neighbors fighting Home- always so exciting Home- were my parents telling the truth? Home- such a funny feeling Home- no-one ever speaking Home- with our bodies touching Home- and the cam’ras watching Home- will infect what ever you do We’re Home- comes to life from outa the blue
Tiny little boats on a beach at sunset I took a drink from a jar and into my head Familiar smells and flavors
Vehicles are stuck on the plains of heaven I see their wheels spinning round and everywhere I can hear those people saying
That the eye- is the measure of the man You can fly- from the stuff that still surrounds you We’re home- and the band keeps marchin’ on Connecting- to every living soul Compassion- for things I’ll never know

Project: Runway & Music for Airports 2/2
Location: Héðinshúsið at Mýrargata
Date: October 14, 2008, 21:00
About the project: Runway - by Hildur I. Guðnadóttir
This piece was composed for the Caput chamber ensemble. It is inspired by and based on airplanes, runways and aviation communication. The setup of the piece is designed for a large space, moving live acoustic surround sound, lights and a light conducting aviation-based systems-designed and built specially for this occasion.
The piece was conceived in close cooperation with artist Elín Hansdóttir.
Music for Airports 2/2 - by Brian Eno Arranged for brass sextet by Hildur Guðnadóttir
Music for Airports was first released in 1978 and therefore celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. It was the first of four records on Enos record label, Ambient. As Brian Eno said in 1978, Ambient Music must be able to accommodate many levels of listening attention without enforcing one in particular; it must be as ignorable as it is interesting. This way of musical thinking would later inspire countless numbers of musicians all over the world, and has now made ambient music a household term.
Music for Airports was originally designed to be an ongoing looped sound installation to soothe the otherwise tense atmosphere at airports. Eno conceived the idea after being stuck at the Cologne Bonn Airport, an airport he found incredibly beautiful, but he is said to have been greatly annoyed by the uninspired sound atmosphere. Hildurs arrangement is true to the original album version, although it adds the breath of brass and the special acoustic surround setup.

Today’s starting point is the word “Gronk”…
Maybe it was Mickey Mouse….
The purple sea monter puppet named Gronk was controlled and voiced by Joe Torbay. Yet another part of the show I simply don’t remember from viewing as a child. Boy did I miss out. These bits with Gronk and the Count are incredibly funny. You can really see in these segments how the actors were allowed to improvise so there are technically no bloopers. How they managed to get through some of these sketches without cracking up I don’t know. I know with this particular one I was laughing so hard at one of Gronk’s questions I completely missed the Disneyland part, heard the “scoreless tie” line and laughed for the rest of bit.
