invisible acoustics
absolutely superb!
"The project titled Invisible Acoustics is a project that slips suggestively into a different world–one that requires different means for its explorations as well as its interpretations.
The world of the invisible
The project is an audio-visual installation of three sound and light units, which visualise the normally invisible form of sound. Based on the scientific study of Cimatics, the units reveal the true, organic form of sound and vibration. Using the surface tension of a soap film, the vibration created by the sounds source transforms the soap into a flexible three-dimensional sculpture, unseen with the naked eye. By bouncing light of the film through a lens, the microscopic transformations of the soap membrane are enlarged and projected on the ceiling, creating a hypnotising light performance. The soap film, designed to last up to an hour, through time transforms the image into an explosion of hues, as the water in the soap lens evaporates. When it finally bursts, the automated mechanism re-dips the soap wand in the solution and starts the performance again. Each designed device plays different tones in a frequency range. These differences in frequencies are translated real time into individual light projections. At the same time, creating a sound and light spectacle when experienced as a whole.
The aim of the project was to change the perception of the everyday. By choreographing a smaller detail, the project tries to enhance the greater understanding of the world we are surrounded by and put to light that there might be more parallel works unnoticed in our mundane lives."
bowled over
my first set of practice pieces, done!
my goal is to pull a gigantic salad bowl. i've tried numerous times and they either collapse or end up being something else. i'm enjoying the surprises and might even take the approach of not planning or expecting things to come out a certain way. i have so many ideas going in my head, though...
adding to the fun of all this, are the people i've met who all seem to be in or involved in the arts–animators, architects, graphic designers, set designers... everyone is so artistic and unique, not just with ideas, but with attitude and character as well. not to mention their friendliness and willingness to help others. such a fantastic and great group of people!
on the mat is where it's at
yoga all day, everyday!
yoga has done wonders for me. i went into it primarily to break the monotony of running.
i never expected it to become an integral part of my growth.
when i'm on the mat, it's where i am fully, completely present.
mind at ease, heart open, easy gaze and long, deep breaths...
inhale, make space. exhale, go deeper

original post removed, but this pretty much sums it up. wise words from some of the greatest teachers...
buddha:
-if your compassion does not include yourself, it is incomplete.
-in the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.
lao tzu:
-the key to growth is the introduction of higher dimensions of consciousness into our awareness.
-knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power.
jesus:
-the kingdom of heaven is within you.
