62 - vroom

Then this post is either about contribution or inspiration...

Marco once said, "people don't watch stuff to the end, lately". It's true that genuine audiences are disappearing. I wonder if content is really the king. Doubtful as it's the indulging content which rules. Since people primitively enjoy food and drinks that are sweet, everything has sugar (or for worse high fructose corn syrup) in it. If you are baking bread with no sugar in it, then you are shooting for the customers with a certain appetite, not the mainstream obviously.

For my blog, I would like to have it be like a store display with nothing on sale inside. Just a place to hang out virtually and stroll for a while around... Art is rarely a creation. It has parallel and vertical bonds with everything else musing in its core. And it is good to imagine the art as a running water like Nazim Hikmet does, so that branching, leaving and coming back...

Marco's underground art magazine Tribal Realities reached its third edition with vibrant content. His paintings provide visuals but there needs to be more. That's why from time to time I make small contributions. Well-worthy / as if I am adding some ice to a glass of water..

When I was watching the short-film "More", music reminded me of a movie that is completely unrelated. Imagination is in the hearts.

Following scene is from "For A Few Dollars More" of Sergio Leone, music by Ennio Morricone.

"When the time ends, pick up your gun. Try to shoot me Colonel. Just try"




Our motivations vary, so do our aspirations, situations and visions. The essence of these do not vary on the other hand.

As optional as it can be,

I like to end with the following video as it closes up this little post on contribution nicely...

Ennio Morricone's acclaimed tunes, Munich, 2005.

Ah they removed it...
