As the month rolls over, I charge the ‘tronics carried on my walks. These guys are a decade old, which seems forever. The covers are wearing. Adhesives failing, but only to a point, a physical pressure point — where my hand has made a mark. The cliche of using objects.

I have multiple batteries which I cycle thru the charge-use cycle. Much of the work from these serve as prompts — training my eye-foot coordination. If my digital comp skills were better, my time in chair more patient, then I would use them in extended form. As soon as I write that, I feel the need to grow. Plant myself into learning, meaning, disciple into effort until a solution happens. Perhaps.

A bit of Burke’s [5/5/1897 – 11/19/1993] grammar: the PENTAD — act, scene, agent, agency, and purpose

  • act: “names what took place, in thought or in deed”
  • scene: “the background of the act, the situation in which it occurred”
  • agent: “what person or kind of person performed the act”
  • agency: “what means or instruments he used”
  • purpose: though not formally defined like the others, this is the motive.

Osborn expands this: “… a truly rigorous attempt to account for a single work on the grounds of poetics alone should force recognition that it is necessary to go beyond poetics-in-particular to language-in-general…”

Back to Burke: ““any nomenclature necessarily directs the attention into some channels rather than others. This can be obvious, such as how different academic subjects direct the attention, or more subtle. Burke illustrates the latter point with an example of how photos of the same objects using different color filters reflected and deflected his attention in different ways, depending on the filter “ [ concept is: terministic screens]

Theory will not make pictures. The obvious reason I take walks is to enter the think, walk, do momentums.

Your turn.

The Good of others. Artists.
Ywahentetha’. “We put you before others in our spirits.” As curators, we believe our role is to bring artists and their works into dialogue with each other in such a way as to amplify their power, the love that resides in and emanates from them … VU, a place worth remembering ..

[ Since 1981, VU has foregrounded the diversity of artistic practices in photography, supported artists in the production of their work, and offered them the space and freedom to create. The centre contributes to current thinking about photography by encouraging the deepening of artistic experience through a program of varied activities. ]

PART …. UNIFORM OF THE DAY --ranger

The new test is completed wearing combat uniforms and boots. In 14 minutes, soldiers must complete:
* An 800-meter run.
* 30 dead-stop push-ups.
* a 100-meter sprint.
* 16 lifts of 40-pound sandbags onto a 68-inch platform.
* 50-meter “farmers’ carry” of two 40-pound water cans.
* A 25-meter high crawl, 25-meter three-to-five second rush.
* A final 800-meter run.
After that, soldiers will change into their physical fitness uniform and run four miles within 32 minutes followed by six chin-ups.
By illuminating the plantation dynamics that make college football a particularly racialized form of exploitation, the book makes legible the forms of physical sacrifice that are required, the ultimate cost in health and well-being, and the coercion that drives players into the sport and compels them to endure such abusive conditions.

The Ugly: chabad cowards
Cowards’ insurrection: the perfect example a group of people who create or commit violence against a US citizen while owing allegiance and fealty to a foreign state, or members of that foreign state. This is terrorist insurrection. On tape by the hundreds. They captured their crime pridefully. How many have turned themselves in for reward. How many have been rebuked by their Rabbi… rabid mitzvahs
