Reading harold_maude's journal

Raw thoughts. Things that fly at me high speed.
That's were I left off.
That's what most of what I'm writing when I write now. Just trying to keep up with what's
going on is taking chunks of time to write,
I can only immagine what it reads like.

Immages in words

Tumbled translucent speheres of light

Liquid moments of music being bent into ideas

Fragments of exotic heady fragrances

Electricly charged rivers of life flowing through the veins of leaves

Twists of rain that become long strands of light

Oranges pregnant with music

Apples on trees that are universes

Leaves going through metamorphises into dolphins

Elephants with huge brilliant star studed wings

Feet having a major revolutionary war against shoes

Mushrooms dressed in formal atire

Bars of steel. Maybe giant creatures made entirely of metal eating candy bars made of steel.
Or adds for steel candy bars...steel shoes, steel hearts, steel eyes, or clothes made of steel,
clothes from the 1940's illustrated to look like they are made of steel.

Bands of light and dark over the reverse covering two immages at the same time
both positive and negative immages, passing over each other.

The perfect kiss, now that would be interesting, how do you visually illustrate the perfect kiss?
And how do you define the perfect kiss so that you can illustrate it.

Molten glass turning into rain, glass going from fire and becomming rain, intense reds, whites, yellows,
ambers into violets and blues and greens and then reflecting immages that come through drops of rain.
I don't know if that could be put into any kind of small format, maybe a series.
But doing that might cause the idea to become seperated, and so miss the idea altogether.

Rain that resembles eyes...this one I can see. An eye up close with all the parts made of rain drops that
reflect immages upside down.

Eyes that are in spiral geometric patterns...could get motion sickness doing this one, needs more
imformation. but it's a great possiblity.

Ears that have legs

Ears that are eyes

Lips made of words

bodies made of words

Trees that are made up of different animals

Rocks that look like two dimensional angles

Feathers that keep getting smaller in definiton

Ocean waves in a progression of movment
stop motion animation so that each frame contained one act of movement by the wave

The sound of waves crashing, what does that sound look like?
Not the normal reperestation of what waves look like, but rather what that sound looks like.

Blades of grass taken to microscopic definiton. The cell sturcture. Are there cosmic immages
in that somewhere?

the sacred geometry of different stones, drawn out

The space between thought, right now I don't know if any exists in my head.

Taking a hand print in paint and putting it under a microscope and seeing what it looks like
and then translating that into visual immages in paint.

The taste of different food translated into visual immages. Not the food, but rather the experience
of what it tastes like.

The immage of time as it was shown to me, the liquid movement in color.
Sort of a transparent dirty steely opal filled with sparks and flashes of color.

The music of saturn translated into visual immagery

listening to aborginal music for several hours and painting

listening to lots and lots of pink floyd and painting

listening to lots and lots of other music that I love for hours and hours and painting

Putting that music into visual form.

Working the other way, looking at an immage and translating it into musical expression.
That one might be more difficult since what I've been hearing as I play sounds like someone
who is completely lost and has no idea of what they are trying to say.
I would need to be able to record the sesson of this so it wouldn't be something trasitory.

Explorations in crayon

The feel of light

The smell of light. Now this one would take some time due to the fact that I haven't had the opportunity
of enough time alone to really explore what light smells like.
All the senses are connected.
And if all the senses are connected and recieve information through waves of energy, then every thing
that we see we should in theory be able to smell.
I wonder if that's possible.
Just a thought.

The smell of night. Does night have a smell at all. Not the way things smell in the dark, but the dark
itself.

I know different types of water have different smells. The ocean has a distinct smell, so does rain.
So do streams and rivers and lakes.
I wonder what thoes smells look like without drawing or painting where they come from.
Completely seperate from the source of where they come from.

Time is shutting down for this right now. I find it extreemly frustrating that when I'm going
in this flow that I have to stop and get into another gear and leave this process.
I feel the same way when I have to stop painting.
It makes me want to scream sometimes.

It only looks that way because your standing on your head.
