I share the intuition of many that something has been going on behind the scenes in society for a very long time and that we are being controlled and governed by some sort of invisible hand.
Emotional pain is not unlike physical pain. Being burned by fire is a near universal experience that we all have had and we all have at a very young age. That first moment when put our hand or finger in a flame and recoiled back angst is one of our earliest imprinting moments. The physical signals that our nerves sent to our brains in that moment taught us one of our early lessons. An early exercise in boundaries and the importance of pain and how it is actually there to help us stay alive.
Remember those days when you were an elementary school student and your least favorite teacher announces that the whole class was going on a field trip to some exotic location out of town? Those were the moments that broke the whole prison like feeling of the school and brought you into a whole new world of freedom. I'm not talking about the typical prison yard reces breaks. This was a whole new world of possibilities that were presented to you. You saw new planets, stars, solar systems, and galaxies all in the confines of your own backyard.
For all of my two(Thanks Mom & Dad) readers on this website, thanks for hanging in there. And for my third reader, welcome and mind the gap..
It's been a while since I've posted anything here. As one might have noticed, Donald J. Trump(J for joy) was my last blog topic and it looked like I either fled the hemisphere or died shortly after that. Rest assured folks I'm very much still alive but still dying a slow death from modernity.
I know, I know, I know, you are probably sick and tired of hearing about the man. But I can’t help it myself, it’s like trying to take your eyes away from a morning fire at a fireworks factory.
What can be said about that whole election that hasn’t been said before you might ask? Lots because like the fire at the fireworks factory, this will rage on for a while even after the blaze has been put down. And trust me, there will be a lot of smoke.
It looks like there is a possible chance that Iceland could be the first country to have a "crowd sourced" government.
I know it's been a while...I should probably get back on top of this thing...
And I will.
As many of you might know, life sometimes likes to have it's way with you and doesn't leave you with much time to breath(literally) let a lone blog. But I'm gonna try my best to get back on top of this and spread my delicious ideas, insights and observations to a world that desperately needs it.
Stay hungry my friends!
I've had this idea in my head for a while to make an intro sequence for my production company or simply a moniker that plays before a video clip.
INT. DARK ROOM
The idea I had was a single camera lens in the middle of the screen and we push into it while at the same time we see images and sounds appear within the lens. While some fancy smasncy fx appears around the whole thing. As the camera pulls in and gets towards the of end the track, it will zoom quickly into the lens and into black.
Well I finally got off my lazy ass and decided to give this thing a try.
One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned last year and the biggest one in my life is how the people around me greatly influence my life. Whether it be my mood, views, opinions, and life trajectory. The folks that we call friends and acquaintances will have a fundamental effect on you and theres no way around it.
You can’t choose your family, but you can choose your friends. So chose wisely before they become family.
