Crossing the Uncanny Valley

| 2 Comments
If you aren't a member of TED.com, you should be -- "TED" stands for "Technology, Entertainment and Design" -- and some of the most forward-thinking and brilliant minds appear there to share with you the truths of what they know.

John Q. Walker gives a fine lecture on how he has been able to recreate the great pianists -- not performances, but the aesthetic and style of the performer -- by digitally discerning finger pressure, pedal movement and their artistic, ethereal, intention.

I was startled to read today that Jesus -- yes, THAT Jesus -- may have been the child born from a Roman raping of his mother, Mary.

The role of the Playwright in Society is to make public the will of the Gods and to enforce human laws of conscience and justice.

Using otherworldly inspiration and mortal thoughts, Playwrights sculpt believing and belonging for live presentation on the stage.

The Body Does Not Lie

| No Comments

The mind is a liar.

The body is incapable of fostering a lie.

The Eliot Spitzer Hooker Psychodrama playing out in the mainstream media has reminded me of other examples of a SuperGenius father and a cursed son.

The Burning Hand

| No Comments

We all know a match burns twice.

Few realize hot water burns forever.

Boiled water in a cup spilled once on your wrist burns you twice on your hand then thrice on your leg -- and on and on in evaporating, fiery, droplets -- as you react and flinch until there's nothing left of you to burn.

The false charges against Barack Obama from the Clinton campaign claiming plagiarism is laughable on the surface and ridiculous in the depths.

The bane of plagiarism, however, is a serious matter and it deserves more discovery and I will more formally address that topic in a future article.


I, The Machine

| No Comments

I, The Machine.

I am a machine.

My invented mechanisms are a compliment.

Writing a book in under a month is of neither myth nor man but of machine.

The machine is me.

The book is life.

How Evil Propagates

| No Comments

Evil propagates the world over via the misled good intentions of honorable people.

It isn't enough to just have an idea because everyone has an idea every day.

Our challenge as authors and artists and poets and pedants is to form the idea and bend it into something new -- preferably with the force of reason and against the recognition of other ideas -- to make something holdable from the whole.

An idea that stretches is a thought that lives in multiple dimensions and when we brand that creative process into something others find appealing, we have reached the nadir of suffering and we are on our way to the pinnacles.
