For those who still do not seem to grok the depth and breadth of sophistication that is only accelerating in surveillance methods and techniques, I submit this paper (one author of which is noted, “Work done at Google.” on the first page). In it, you will find that technology can now parse video, audio, and […]
Humans have spent all existence confining, defining, and refining concepts of relation between things. Any activity can be defined as a series of state changes whose only common denominators are energy / matter in a positive / negative / imponderable state. The level of refinement needed is inversely proportionate to the level of sustainability expected. The […]
There’s something liberating about the blank page. The initial thought is to just regurgitate the past; that somewhat odd manner of lingering over it as if it holds an inherent value or impact upon this “now” that I have not, knowingly or ignorantly, granted place, point, and purpose in my being, life, and mind.

I will preface this by saying that, in my oh-so-humble opinion, you can put any word of relation in place of the word [love] in this item. It is nice to feel confident in that opinion, and pretty much all the soft and hard sciences support it, so I can even say (and savor) that […]
My path has ever rolled like an avalanche along; in precious, raw, rough parallels, our movements met and, for a moment, harmonized. A moment’s harmony is not a song, but the moment of harmony creates possibility in all who experience it.

September 2018 – Manufacturers now scramble to find ways to avoid human resources to drive down costs so they can afford to buy materials from overseas. Is this Trump’s[1] effort to influence the return of manufacturing to the states? To see the steelmill […]

The pure seed pattern is that which is present in all things. It is the driver of all evolution, the cycle of all living things, and The singular, paradoxical anomaly in any organized system, and/or/else/not (all non-organized systems). You can find the pattern anywhere that you can develop a way to “look” for it. It […]
