Waiting for inspiration

Image
Waiting for inspiration The air in a waiting room carries a specific kind of weight, a density that seems to swallow sound. For centuries, artists have tried to capture this heavy, invisible presence. I think of Honoré Daumier , who portrayed the slumped, weary resignation of third-class travellers. He understood that waiting wasn't just sitting; it was an endurance sport. I see that same heavy air, but my era is electrified. The figure on the left isn't just sitting; they are anchored against a storm of data. Their head is buried in their hands, face half-hidden as if they're trying to crawl inside their own mind to escape the silence. The thick, aggressive slashes of orange and gold overhead resemble a visual scream, capturing that internal chaos where your thoughts race at a hundred miles an hour while your body is stuck in a plastic chair. The green glow on their skin adds a cold, modern tension, making the whole scene feel like a pulse vibrating beneath a still surface...

GODin Equilibrium The haste to make common sense is immediately erroneous But that doesn't seem to matter in the world of simulated comfort She will be right mate, don't fix it if it's not broken Common Sense: We need a strong response to threats The observation must be questioned if the edge is to be protected from the core Making sense require curiosity  The majority of mind matters is comforted by delusion Investigation is the only way forward Common Sense: We cannot be seen as weak History repeats under the mantra of common sense The future is ours if we collectively question The chance of choice is not within the boundary Futileness nestles within accepting commonality Our political leaders maintain fear and conflict as the broker to maintain common sense  There is a disregard of the intellect  Common Sense: We cannot be confused by complexity

Godin Equilibrium

I woke up this morning and I felt a pain in my brain. It was like all had changed and all will continue to change. Nothing was left as the same. And in this remorse I was the only one who  knew. I just can't  believe it,   no-one would believe  in what I had to say. So I yelled hard and long about all the injustices that has occurred. I stomped my feet hard to the ground. I punched through  the air to sporn my stance of knowing . I spat deceit at society. But no one knew for me and no-one wanted the goodness within my heart. I became increasing alone. In this life I can grasp the future. I see visions of what's it's to be. Messages  decrypt and whisper their intent to me. I cannot find my way to you. The more I warn the more you ignore me. The greater the detail the less you want to know. I began to hate you. Where can I cry with my love watching over me? When can I celebrate  when everything I state eventually unravels int...

Godin vader It is so easy to fall into battle. It takes time to realise respect. in daydreams I forget the grind. in stress I embrace the grip. How easy it is to not know yourself. Whilst busily manipulating the enemy we forget our own bleeding. it just seems easier to forget yourself in moments of battle.

Schools and Creativity: Sir Ken Robinson

WE NEED A SENSE OF BALANCE Why is creativity taken out of productivity? Why is innovation taken out of teaching? Why are schools not helping students to make meaning of their skills? If public education is to provide only the 3 Rs - to enable a functioning society - is education providing a hand-break on society? ' Education systems too narrow' : Sir Ken Robinson: ABC 7:30 report video interview Dot Points Sir Ken Robinson: * a number of famous people whose traditional education failed to help them identify their real talents before they went on to brilliant careers. * our education systems at the moment are still very focused on a certain type of ability, and the result is very many brilliant people are marginalised by the whole process *a talented and a passion - well that's to say you never work again. And it is true, I think, that our current education systems are simply not designed to help people do that. In fact an awful lot of people go through education and never d...
