Words are Words as they say ..we are the ones filled with meaning.
A project filtering and deconstructing, words, sounds and imagery passing me by.
A focus on this, was published here, in 3 numbered stages, #3-#2-#1, at the beginning of each month, February to November 2024.
10 monthly “retellings” was published here, in 2 numbered stages, #2-#1, at the beginning of each month, February-November 2025.
A synthesis, #1, will be published here, on this page, at the beginning of each month, February to November 2026.
Creating a clearer meaning, ..or just meaningfulness maybe.
JUNE
#1 COMPARATIVES AND SUPERLATIVES
Waking up to other sides in the dualities. Perceiving an ordinariness in all miracles. Not having any news, ..or use of this, there it is, another masterpiece to be created. Can there be others ? Admiring the collective. Seeing «is» as «was», we wonder why we have to be so aware ofthis, ..and them. Starting something. Ending somewhere else. Another return, another step in the wrong direction. Every time we go somewhere, we leave something behind. We don’t know what ..or where, but we are all still looking for it. Counting all the leaves on a tree. Saving the number for future reference. Having a household is pain, and not having a household is pain also. Trying to blend in, we say those three things. Yesterday’s rain not letting go, ..and the better for it. This way or that way, will effectively change into another way. You are here. Why travel then ?
MAY
#1 DICHOTOMIES – TRUE AND FALSE
Recognizing and ignoring others, staring from their mirrors, you see what you want to see. You either find yourself or you loose yourself in this individuality. We also make up stories to dissolve that which cannot solve itself. Not valuating the words, but accepting that they are meaningful. Someone else’s turn to listen. Here and now, not being conclusive. There and then not either. Looking into others eyes ..that never will be. Confusing similarity with source. Turning towards that which we no longer see. Telling other stories ..and how to get there. No one noticing us entering the unlit lighthouses. Looking out for nothing at all. Visible shadows from that which do not exist. Even if we loose all, we still have everything.Mass or frequency. A table or a piano. Where there is a lid, there must be a box. Every thing has consequence. The tonic becoming the toxin in a soluble life. Those who would love to become, ..and the ones that cannot help themselves, seeing only two choices. When in fact other options are available.
APRIL
#1 PERFECT PAST – SIMPLE PRESENT
In whispers of what has been, the future awaits the events of the present. Weaving them into memories. Each moment a thread. Every thread a journey forever begun. A whisper of completion. A reference to what came before. From past continuous to perfect and beyond. In past and present moments, a system is suggested. Yet past continuous tells of ongoing flow. The present beckons, awaiting unwritten tales ..somehow completing just before new ones begin. The past is as present as we want the future to be. Some choose the simple past, others choose the present perfect. Weaving tapestries of time into intricate patterns before newer narratives capture ongoing action. Outside of the flock, if you lean in there is information there. What you are seeing ..not what you are looking for.
MARCH
#1 INFINITE – INFINITIVE
To search and never to find. To be anywhere. On the way to somewhere else. Before and after the doing. To become, and then to be. Thinking this in weather ..and then again. Confusing thievery with security. Just to be able to choose those dependencies. Into the static. Into the Mysteries. Into the changeable, or their employers. The trauma-formed patterns, Taking it closer – Narrower – Distanter. Starting – Ending – Starting again. Holding back into Anonymity. Artists never really being free. The ability and the need. Possessed and prompted at every turning point into custom-made life paths. Stretching this into unimaginable space. Noone can hear the screams… So different from our lived in experience. Until we dont just say it, but do it.
FEBRUARY :
#1 VERBALS – VERBALER
Hiding in the linearities of light, ..or the normalities of flight. Exploring forms and essence, ..concealed beneath the surfaces. Longing to share the wonder of ..and in, fragments that appear. Freeing ourselves from the confines ..in conventional modes. Bypassing limitations in traditional observation. Traversing territories of the miraculous and the mysterious. How are we to learn from the do’s and the dont’s that are revealed ? Making meaning somehow. Emotional narratives in newer ceilings ..or heavens challenging and elevating our understanding. The introverted extroverts, the exoteric esoterics. Prosaic and poetic restraints combining all into new meaning. Glueing things together ..on top of each other.
