  • Truth

    Capturing truth from what we see, hear, feel and think is like catching the individual colours of a rainbow in your hand..

    Holding on to that truth is as difficult...

  • Spell Casting

    If we were to consider the universe is a quantum computer...

    Every particle, their spin, their charge could carry information... and could perhaps be programmed.

    The spoken word is but a wave which vibrates the air... could such waves also vibrate and change fundamental particles?

    Ummm... words programming the universe... structured chants; spells shape reality... a basis for magical thinking?

    Now I know there's a gulf between the science and the idea, but hey, this was just a random thought which popped into my head to be scribbled in a note book at 3.00am on the 22nd July 2007 and found again today when tidying my office!

  • Politics

    Truth is a corpse, a rotting reminder of yesterday....

    Tomorrow died somewhere in the lies of yesterday and the confusion of today.

    Sound bytes and cliches remain...

    9/11 ..... 7/7 .....   24/7/365

    Fractions of life split by the passage of time and the events contained within each moment.

    How many know?

    How many care?

    How many sleep?

  • City Street

    The streets filled with people their vapour trails of personal history shifting and flowing behind them.

    In motion

    E-Motion
    Their smiles betray their isolation...
    Their frowns city-street hardened...
    Behind teh eyes the indifference and the fear - suspiscions grow daily as knowledge is smothered by information.
    Some glide with the grace of swans...
    Others lumber with the weight of elephants...

  • Second Skin

    There's a second skin in the space where you and I begin...

    A second skin

    There's a second skin where loves words wear thin...

    A second skin

    There's a second skin - where do you end and I begin?

  • Truro August 2005

    Words burn their message into my mind - a collection of dreams that are sold or seek to be sold - consumer statistics.

    The Pioneers and Explorers now trademarked to grocers and bus companies..

    A bronzed icon of a long dead soldier salutes victory; screaming silently from the past - his shadow falls heavily upon those who no longer remember or care or care to remember.

    Murderous histories and corporate take-overs now celebrated in 'brands'...

    Boston Tea Party --- Coffee House
    Pizza Express --- Coinage Hall

    Windows overdressed and filled with itmes no one needs but everyone wants.

    What would a stranger make of this place, this time, this society?

    Gold-braceleted builders show off their tanned bodies; teenage sirens display their charms - inviting yet rejecting in the same moment.

    Immune, apart - different and distant... the world passes by - yet I know I know nothing.

    The irony of youth - knowing that you know everything; that time owes you something more than you've earned. Rebellion locked into compliance; shaped by the desires of those who are no longer young.

    There's no need fot a global conspiracy when we conspire to limit ourselves so effectively.

    Alan - Truro, Cornwall August 2005 - waiting!
