if you ever feel disoriented,

look to the sky;

and if it's light, wonder "wow, i'm spinning"
and if it's dark, wonder "wow, i'm spinning"

while spinning about, art director?

what thou art would be had, had hand not directed by thee?

where the creative control rests most firm, the artist, the artist...

The concept of formalism can be traced as far back as Plato, who argued
that 'eidos' (or shape) of a thing included our perceptions of the thing, as
well as those sensory aspects of a thing which the human mind can take
in. Plato argued that eidos included elements of representation and
imitation, since the thing itself could not be replicated. Subsequently,
Plato believed that eidos inherently was deceptive.
In art theory, formalism is the concept that a work's artistic value is
entirely determined by its form--the way it is made, its purely visual
aspects, and its medium. Formalism emphasizes compositional elements
such as color, line, shape and texture rather than realism, context, and
content. In visual art, formalism is the concept that everything necessary
in a work of art is contained within it. The context for the work, including
the reason for its creation, the historical background, and the life of the
artist, is considered to be of secondary importance.
Formalism or formalization is the activity or its product which rigorously
follows a set/system of rules previously defined and usually known.

as though a stem cell could deduce it's use on its own,
i might surmise that to make my way building
is to enter into symbiotic relations with those who use buildings

raw psychological data, transposed with formalistic approach,
t'would be any less raw?
Formalism in religion means an emphasis on ritual and observance, over their meanings.
In modern poetry, Formalist poets may be considered as the opposite of
writers of free verse. These are only labels, and rarely sum up matters
satisfactorily. 'Formalism' in poetry represents an attachment to poetry
that recognises and uses schemes of rhyme and rhythm to create poetic
effects and to innovate. To distinguish it from archaic poetry the
term 'neo-formalist' is sometimes used.
Diegesis (Greek διήγησις) and mimesis (Greek μίμησις) have been
contrasted since Plato's and Aristotle's times. Mimesis shows rather than
tells, by means of action that is enacted. Diegesis, however, is the telling
of the story by a narrator.

there's something about it...

throwing yourself into a performance

first you notice the audience

if your good, you notice them noticing it

then it really starts

the audience fades away

the environment fades away

and it's just you and the performance

until even you fade away

the performance...

yep, you guessed it. it fades

then nothing left but joy

kinetic joy

pure

clean

absolute

an artist doesn't display themself

an artist find themself in what looks like a display

culmination of true art

and it leaves you changed

in a way that no one else could have changed you, and it doesn't go away

it deepens

but only if you deepen it

chi squared

masterful masticator, taking their own breath away

and then, when it's done, it lodges itself in your cerebrum

tickling the back of your mundanity in ghosts they call memory

don't act as though i breath for you

don't act as though i speak for you

think for yourself

net's

this hallows eve, we may see the imaginings of the prosecutor's image out and about

the one that look to the throne and yearned to be more like unto godhead

that was given his own throne, and a regimen of demon and succubi


but some incessently paint over a possibly content persona as the eternal antagonist

as though throne and rule was not the core desire, but somehow possesion of all known and unknown of the universe

and that somehow, on a contractual basis, his glee is but to increase a share

if you but give the guise some candy, it somehow goes on it's way

thus to appease and avoid an oppressive or nightmarish burden.

burden little or burden lot, the tasks the dreams, mid self sewn seams
the devil, some how inverted, only happy when we're sad?

or things settled long ago, and in their own way

who's to be the judge?

so of this, our lot

if it were the same, would be sapient

to venture a guess,

will meets chi

where chi was once distorted and confused

chi was still chi, but having a tough go of it

then will came along

quiet, unobtusive

do they make eyes at each other?

a quiet word or two?

gently starting a relationship that could carry them on through life?

life

like einstein may have overlooked

twice a halflife

thus time undistorted

even at the black hole

who's your even match?

let's see

Image

perhaps yourself

...

so, go ahead

put yourself in a psychological headlock

be like, "you my bitch"

and steer yourself sapient

with a little pressure now and then, if you get out of hand

just to let yourself know who's in charge

then

perhaps

the prize

A bill is a document demanding payment for an order previously supplied...

The bill for something is the total price of all services and goods received
but not paid for, and is presented in the expectation of immediate
payment in full.

If a bill is not paid, a collections company is usually given the
responsibility of collecting the amount due and service is terminated.
having burned, one aspect of the experience would be a marked lack of
bills. money stress subdued. freeing up the mind to focus on more
creative things

bills... the chasm of was and is

if we could do practically anything, why not practicle?

the stream must be split, they say

why split it with me?

why doesn't a job just pay my bills directly?

maybe i'm not management material, but i'll show for work

they'll even manage me

if they've got such the knack for it, i say let them manage my bills too

give me what i can spend freely, i've no use for the rest

maybe it'd employ another person or two... great, whatever

cults are nice cause you can go get you a little job stress, but they
generally sheild you from much money stress

there's a war on

could not we use a little shield?
