Tiny Island

 

I wish I had a tiny island
floating in the sea
Palm trees sway don’t get in the way
it’s a tropical ease

And everywhere that I keep my silence
no sound returns to me
Just endless waves at the end of our days
the sighing of the seas

But yesterday’s gone
I don’t know where I come from
Wonder where I’m going

The very last time that you saw me off
I thought it was understood
that I’d be gone for a very long time
I might be gone for good

And all that time
all the time
I thought you would never fall
It did not dawn across my mind
the time that you lost it all

But yesterday’s gone
I don’t know where I come from
Don’t know where I’m going

Sometimes I feel like a tiny island
floating in the sea
Palm trees sway don’t get in the way
it’s a tropical ease

And everywhere that I keep my silence
no sound returns to me
Just endless waves at the end of our days
the sighing of the seas

But yesterday’s gone
I don’t know where I come from
Wonder where I’m going

Where I’m calling from

From Antwerp to Ghent (Northern Sky by Nick Drake)

I got bored on the train so I started filming the landscapes & the stations. I cut & pasted it together. I’m not an expert, neither at filming or editing, but still I’m quite satisfied with the result. The music is by Nick Drake – Northern Sky… beautiful song and in some way it seemed to fit the atmosphere…

I’ve been working on several projects…

That’s why I haven’t been blogging much except for silly little frivolous items. Putting some of the final touches on a website for a friend of mine in Glen Ellen, for her Showcase Gallery

where she feature such notables as Linus Maurer (inspiration for the character “Linus” in the late Charles Schultz’s widely-celebrated Peanuts cartoon. And she is currently showing an original work by Stanley Mouse, who all you 60’s era afficianados will know from numerous psychedelic posters and album covers.

There’ll be more, but I gots to gets to bed…

Bad VR

First: I was a Bad Blogger, because I had no idea what I wanted to do when some unsuspecting sucker offered me a free forum for my deranged musings…

Second: Some entirely irresponsible adult offered me a megapixel digital camera for less than I would spend in a day on heroin & Ramen noodles, and I became a Bad Photographer…

Finally: I acquire an utter lack of facility in developing javascript applications, and now I am announcing my latest reinvention of myself in creating…

Bad Virtual Reality!!!

Take a looksee, and see what happens when you allow people like me to have access to computers!

Chupacabrahuahua recovered in Texas

She’s been a hunter all her life and has the mounted heads of a zebra and other exotic animals in her house to prove it. But the roadkill she found last month outside her ranch was a new one even for her, worth putting in a freezer hidden from curious onlookers: Canion believes she may have the head of the mythical, bloodsucking chupacabra.
