Telecommunication systems such as Morse code, radio, telephone, film, television, and the internet can be seen as products, or, extentions, of your mind. These systems mimic our perceptions of sight, sound and language! These systems help your mind do what it wants to do! What, does your mind do? What, does it want to do? Change, into something different? Play? Be many places at once? See everything? Communicate, to people, far away?

dark texas

in the silence of my studio,

I observe the birth of dreams,, we are all candles, without wicks to burn, and
our thoughts branched out, like trees modcult, above madison square.
I love you, francis, come to the Gurrsshwin hotel!.
hi ..
it can be important to conciider the fact that you don't know me

word, NYC,
i 'd like to hear you,
but, i imagine i can not,

i turn around and realized
[through all this urban chaos]

this is life
and, i am simply in message end.
Telecommunication systems are paradoxical in that they show us signs, pictures, sounds, and language, of the worrld, yet we are, in some way, profoundly, disscon¬nected from that world... Your mind is ingaged, yet, you are eyesolated physically, psychologically... There is a word for this tendancy, Discourporative, the Discourporative Impulse... Yes, the Discourporative Impulse describes what we all seem to be involved in: , shedding the physical body for the ehthereal, uuuutoh¬pean, virtual presence, and the promises of ultimate interconnectivity. What do you think? I like the word Discourporative even though it seems fancy, it is direct and precise, you understand it, OK. You lose your body, your mind, is free.

hi. keep faith alive in your heart, and you will walk in the path, of dreams open this spot, and look inside what you see are the centuries. what you see is, dirt

Their acts, are filthy lewd. and fantastical, and you suck the nurishment in it swells, throughout the punches and bleeds on the the rocks, look around you and notice that no one cares

then burn it all down. instead of
harvesting .

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. are you having fun?

Telecommunication systems connects us to an endless stream of seductive information known as Media Culture. From the beginning. when Samuel Morse transmitted the first coded message via telagraph, "What has god wrought?" the individual has struggled, to retain identity. Do you feel dislocated?, Alone? Fractured Consciousness?

Time cut. Insert face.
The exhaustive workings to make white light.
The chemical make-up is restoored, I remember it now.
It is a seasonal elation, a continual seduction.
These are the fragments.
They whisper.

Media, and it's technology, are popularly assigned the role of, medium, Telecommunication systems, have provoked a connection to, spiritual presences. Here you can see three historic characters evoked in this installation:,…
1) the phantasmagoria, and demonic evocations, of the great pioneer, Gaspar Robertson. (who founded the first moving image theater, in a crypt in Paris, in 1763);...,
2) the adolescent, Kate Fox's telegraphic contact with the spirit world by mysterious, Morse code, knocking, sounds (Hydesville, New York in 31 March 1848),,..
3) John Baird, the British inventor of the mechanical television, who foreshadowed the mind, body separation by using ventriloquist dummies in the 1920s for his first broadcast experiments.

,why are there so many of us, who struggle living? is it fate? I don't know I do know that one's spirit can grow old just from struggling. no movie, dream or lotto ticket is going to change that reality

there should be a karmic law that states, after one has lived a fruitfull life for x number of years they are required to turn it in, and step into the shoes of the nearest poor soul

now that is real justice.

if you cant controll your own life, how is anyone going to do it for you?

everything is a matter of reciprocity……… what happens, causes something else, to happen and it goes on, and on, spreading out like ripples, on a reflecting pool, so, if I give love, hate,, sympathy,, scorn,,, or piitty,,, to you,,,, you may accept it, reject it, ignore it,,, or give it back to me... But, whatever you do, will be done, with equal measure, to what I have given you….. even if you try not to respond at all, the very effort of denying a responce, will be in fact a responce....

I believe with Schopenhauer that ine if the strongest motives that leads men to art and science is escape from everyday life with its most painful crudity and hopeless dreariness, from teh fetters of one's own ever shifting desires.......................

you must always act on your true nature. and you can never succumb to meaningless rules,,,,,,,, you must must always question moral rules to see if they have meaning or purpose to you………….. this does not mean that you should disregard moral and natural rules……..you….must …..consistantly strain important moral rules from accumulated garbage from years. .past…..there is no moral reason why you cannot climb a tree, and if you want to climb a tree, go climb a tre!!!!!cutting through

Television archives store millions of images of the dead, which wait to be broad¬cast……………to the living….at this point, the dead come back to life to have an influence…………on the living...Television is, then, truely the spirit world of our age, it preserves images of the dead whichc then can continue to haunt us……..it also gives us the phenomenon of living
ghosts. or stars as we like to call themm

Knowledge is firewood, it is enough……all - consumi ng thought of you

all consuming thoughts of you, creeping up on me at all hours of the night and day, like vines clinging to brink walls, pushing away other thoughts like they were cracked mortar between bricks. I change my position, brush them away in hopes that sleep or new thoughts will replace them,,,,,,,,,,,,,,curling into the blanket at my side like, cats, stubborn, sending out claws if I try to remove them...LITTLE
BEAR I LOVE YOU
all consuming thoughts of you
cute little little little bear...I dont know if there is a limit to how long our quote can be, but this is one of my favorites and i think sooo apropos for the denizens of this city to think about:
Our first tast in approaching another person, another culture, another faith, is to take off our shoes, for the place we are approaching is holy; else we find our¬selves treading on another person's dream. More serious still, we may forget that God is there before our survival. Rev. Cannon Max A.C. Warren
