What is the Disparity Portal

What is the Disparity Portal?  A Metamodernist Commentary by artist JJFBbennett Portrait of a Metamodernist Artist If you stepped through the glass ring, which version of yourself would look back? A metamodernist discussion by artist JJFBbennett. A calm young man with wavy, dark cerulean-blue hair and a subtle smile stands perfectly centred inside a massive glass ring portal. He wears a simple light blue long-sleeved shirt. Behind his head, an intense golden sunburst radiates sharp, blinding rays. To his left are thick purple impasto swirls; to his right is a serene green valley painting. High-detail digital art, metamodern, surreal masterpiece. The Churn of the Unmade Look at the left side of the canvas. It isn’t just paint; it’s the heavy, exhausting gravity of pure affectation. I applied these deep purples and stark whites with a thick palette knife, wanting you to feel the weight of the medium itself—the messy, chaotic over-saturation of our digital lives, the constant noise. I...

It is raining in Taipei

Image
  It is raining in Taipei  (A Jazz Ballad for a Warm Rainy Day) Left my umbrella folded, didn’t care Stepped into a street that shimmered everywhere Neon bleeding red and green Where the wet world makes a mirror of everything Some dressed in a ghost-white cape Life slips on by—no honk, no haste Just the rhythm on the awning And the smell of Taipei in the rain Oh, rain on the asphalt, warm and slow Where the city leans in soft and low No place to go, nowhere to be Just the rain, just the rain, just the rain and me And when I dry off and turn the key I won’t remember what I saw, you see I’ll remember how I slowed enough to feel That surrender is the only thing that’s real Shhh… just the rain… Mmm, just the rain. Yeah. Be Creative and Innovative with Knowledge John Bennett - AKA JJFBbennett , is an independent artist.

Waiting for Azrael

-
Image
  Waiting for Azrael The air in the room doesn't move; it simply presses She has long since stopped looking at the clock, realising that time here isn't a sequence, but a weight. The waiting room has fractured, the mundane reality of plastic chairs and linoleum tiling splintering into a jagged, stained-glass fever dream . High-pitched frequencies of burning red and sickly yellow vibrate against the walls, echoing the frantic noise of a mind that has run out of distractions. She pulls her legs inward and forms a tight knot, dressed in indigo and bruised purple. She tries to find a purpose in her world that refuses to stand still. Every sharp edge of colour feels like a spiritual siege , a sensory reminder that her momentum has been forcibly halted. There is no use in pacing. There is no use in resisting the authoritative hand of the "in-between." To survive this stall, she must stop fighting the current and become part of the stagnant water. She buries her face, lets t...

The Art of No

-
Image
  The Ayes Have It (But She Don't) Everybody knows the bill is dead Everybody knows the Senate’s red Everybody knows the deal is done The major parties had their fun The crossbench bargains were all just show The whips have cracked, the whistle’s blowed That’s how it goes And Hanson always votes no. Everybody knows the bells are ringing Everybody knows the mud they’re slinging Everybody knows the clerk can’t count With all the grievances they mount Everybody knows that the motion’s lost Everybody knows what the lobby cost The Ayes go high, the chamber’s low And Hanson always votes no. And everybody knows that it’s now or never Everybody knows that it’s gonna take forever Everybody knows that the act is rotten Old amendments best forgotten Everybody knows the tellers move With nothing left for them to prove The red room puts on quite a show But Hanson always votes no. Everybody knows the maiden speech The lessons that she tried to teach About the fish and about the chips And the tig...

Obsidian static the puppet master

-
Image
  Obsidian static, the puppet master. (Verse 1) The crevice opens like a silent, dusty lung Air thick with minerals and a thousand forgotten years I'm rappelling down the sheer black into a chasm's memory My boots crunch on shattered polymer No sound but the suit's respiration But the stillness is a stage The jagged walls, they lean in now (Refrain) The Paraknowing a cold spike of dread at the base of the skull It’s not a thought, it’s a wave Static buzz. Who's the puppet and who is the master? High-tensile wires disappear into the light The tightening the silent pull above the gully (Verse 2) The godly face, brittle stone work It emerges, eyes blank and unseeing But it broadcasts a sharp spike of loss and profound love My logic stutters, snagging on the input An effigy , a sentinel or just a mirror I turn and see the audience waiting Small, white figures, balanced stone totems They are all part of it (Verse 3) The strings pass through my wrist Not from me, but through...

We are going in

-
Image
  We are going in (Verse 1) Our energy, it's draining, draining low. Our reserves, dwindling, dwindling. Faces glow, a strained, weary show. So weary. A crisis, a crisis at hand. The Primary Trade Lane, gripped. So tightly gripped. Delta-Nine, a nightmare. It's about to make us slip. Just slip. (Chorus) But then, a presence. A presence. A hospitality's call, on the fringe. The very fringe of uncharted space. Before we fall. We fall. The anomaly. A desperate hope. In the night. Their whole mission, hanging. Hanging in the dim, fading light. So dim. (Bridge) Yeah, we're going in. Going in. With a whisper. And a plea. Into the unknown. The unknown. For all the world to see. To see. The ozone, thin. So thin. Despair in the air. Just despair. But something. Something is out there. Beyond compare. Beyond. (Chorus) The anomaly. A desperate hope. In the night. Their whole mission, hanging. Hanging in the dim, fading light. So dim. We're going in. Going in. With a whisper. A...

The Cognitive Cost of Efficiency

  The Cognitive Cost of Efficiency Instrumental https://youtu.be/yXa94oYpI1s?si=DxyEHnweL1zCQKKJ Description I can’t pinpoint when it all began—this relentless hum of urgency, the ticking metronome in my mind, quantifying my worth through outputs and optimisations. It started subtly, like a whisper in the background: "Be faster. Do more. Waste nothing." Over time, those whispers morphed into a dogma I unwittingly embraced.

Echoes of Tomorrow

-
Image
  Echoes of Tomorrow   Intro: The machines hum quietly in the night, A soft pulse beneath the stars, Invisible hands weaving through our dreams, What will we become when the lines are blurred? Between belonging and not belonging. Verse 1: We once spoke in whispered tones, Conversations with the earth, the trees, the rivers, Now, our words float above the static, Lost in an ocean of ones and zeros, Connection feels distant, like a memory But somewhere, the heart still beats, still sings. Chorus: They promised us a future painted in light, But I feel the shadows more than I see the glow, In this tangled web of thought and code, Where do we find ourselves? Where do we find ourselves? Where do we find ourselves now? Verse 2: The horizon is neither here nor there, A question lingers on the lips of time. We trusted the machines to carry our stories, But who will remember the silence, The way the wind touched your face, Before we surrendered to the hum? Chorus: They promised us a fut...

The Progress

-
Image
  The Progess - Nu Jazz by JJFBbennett Intro: Under the canopy of night, the mega city breathes.   Its streets, bathed in artificial glow, stretch out, endless.   Bridges and towers, silent sentinels, stand tall against the darkness,   Their lights are a beacon for our weary souls wandering beneath them. Verse 1: In this city of dreams and realities intertwined.   Cars drift slowly, each a microcosm, each a solitary journey.   The horizon promises more of the same.  A continuation of the unknown, the unseen, the unspoken. Chorus 1: And the lights, they tell stories,   But from afar, they blend into a tapestry of light and shadow.   A cold, distant beauty,   Reminding us of the vastness we pretend to understand. The vastness. Cold and beautiful. Verse 2: The city hums, a melody of human achievement,   Yet within its pulse, the silent voices go unheard.   Each window, a world, ea...
