This project is so interesting to me. To set out to create magic by a guitar that accepts the spirit of all who offer it, or give spirit without thought by a given proximity. For these vary according to my own power, my own energy. Here many of the shots are taken at events, with magical guitar wrapped and cozy in the car. It is in each moment that I live, as much as possible. I love the people in my city, San Antonio. Because the culture in town sees me as some do not, and life for me is in the nature of paradise, frankly.

Learning is living
I want to include here a text I wrote for another blog recently, and I feel it applies here in this post and this blog nicely.
Time Does Not Exist. Only Clocks
Time is slippery. As anyone who has spent a wonderful afternoon with loved ones, or has traveled in a loud and crowded flight; dig-all time is not equal. This is always measured by individuals’ perceptions. Two people at the park together may have very different perceptions that are time-related; related to differing perception; feeling different emotions, changes in physical symptoms and each our own intellectual interpretations of events. If examined, these will be found to represent individual differences of perception. All of these aspects and many others may be seen to manifest as what I describe as, stretching and contracting time.

Although the usual comic book buyers were scarce at CCCC in Austin last month, cosplay was well represented. I reckon that is the best thing that ever happened to comic conventions |
Time
may be thought of as a natural, human sense. Analogous of having a nose
to experience smells; our whole being, in each our physiology from
birth to our demise we perceive, and deploy time, in effect we are each time-‘organs.’’
I reckon it is true to suppose that every person spends her time the
best way she is able to, but generally in our culture time is fractured,
refracted, clicked off in a tally by clocks of all description, but the
true utility of time is that it is part of, and available to all, if we
only knew it.
Because
we mainly sell the bulk of our time to a boss, for money, and that
money must then provide us with everything. We feel obliged to battle
for both money and our own time, because we ‘need’ to make an equation
work, that can be supposed to support us, and all our responsibilities.
This
bit and each of my expanded variables, make this (blog) equation
medicinal in practice. I must stress plainly that I do not offer this
work to the reader as fact, discovery, true assertions, or bogus hoax.
My intent is to present an accessible meta-physic equation; exploring
diverse ways to understand, think about and discuss aspects troubling
and perhaps caused by our culture here in North America.
