When Atoms Reach for Sacred Altars

  When Atoms Reach for Sacred Altars What do you feel when you touch something sacred? Do you want to touch sacred art? Are we creatures bound by thermodynamics, driven by an instinctual urge to exchange heat, shed skin cells, and mingle our matter with the monuments we revere? To stand before a sacred masterpiece is to experience a gravitational pull—an irresistible desire to collapse the space between subject and object, to leave an oily fingerprint as proof of shared existence.  The gallery border is a social construct attempting to enforce absolute vacuum, forbidding the inevitable entropy of human connection. To reach out anyway is to assert that our physical reality is not separate from the sublime, but bound to it by the very matter we carry on our fingertips. Reaching across that barrier is a quiet rebellion against social decorum: a desperate want for quantum entanglement that collapses the boundary between ideal beauty and our messy, lived reality.

Darwin Jingili Water Gardens Day 2

-

I have participated in previous holidays with urgency to experience something that I have not experienced before - a different country, a different city, and different tourist sites. I have a well-developed desire to travel and gain satisfaction through novel experiences. I have accepted that the consumption of difference is the basis of my creativity. However, this holiday is passive and now intentionally regulated by maintaining a pattern of doing the same each day to reflect on the subtlety of difference.  I'm not 'just doing it' for the sake of just doing it, at the same-ish time of day. On the same path through the same location, two days in a row, trying to establish my understanding of action within Jingil Water Garden within itself.   So I am intentionally subjugating myself to perform in a linear succession day after day.

COVID-19 2020 has shut down my travels.  So that now I'm on my annual mid-year break I have the time to question my actions. My employment is based on a formal strategy.  High pressure and doing it.  COVID-19 has placed barriers onto my normality. The basis of this blog is questioning the 'just doing it' normality within the confines of COVID-19 restrictions. Understanding my actions within confinement -  'we cannot know things as they are in themselves' (Kant).  On this basis, I have dedicated part of my holiday getting to know myself getting to know Jingili Water Gardens. In short, thinking about my experiences experiencing Jingili Water Gardens.  My initial quandary is that I do not know if this blog is a response of being free to act within restrictions or is it a 'just do it' reaction imposed by confinement.  In other words, is this aesthetic of my own freedom or is it that of an outcome derived by that of an authoritative decision?  If I w...

From One Penny to Utopia

Sensing cultural empowerment And the euphoric rise of the imperialist spirit All of the romantic adventures And the courageous attacks Surviving those deemed as inferior And observing the tormented  Then returning to refinement and grace And feeling satisfied by the tasting Sublimity Awe-inspiring Stories of journeys into the unknown lands From One Penny to Utopia video One Penny Portal Many don't believe in ghosts Many don't believe they are ghosts But they exist And continue to consume the future Through hatred, anger and destruction   Synthesizing the truth in our minds Purchasing our identity Until all originality is replaced  And the replica successfully re-emerges One-off sponsorship You Tube
