i'm moving this all away from direct and slavish re_broadcast of found material to slightly more considered image association. by theme, subject, a visual device, an emotional response, a colour, an imagined ideology. the juxtaposition as paramount construct. an expression of the edit. being trying this for a month or so now. finding connections, tenuous and/or naive as they may be. of the opinion that real beauty (?) can come from the selective/emotive distillation of information. it's other peoples work. you know this. ennobled and self-important; conceit?
also, people keep wanting comment fields. can't figure out a way of adding comments to the main page, but open to ideas. don't want each post to have it's own breakaway page - want to keep the thing as basic as possible. one chronological stream, no branches. if you have a suggestion, please email it to the link at the bottom of the page.
ps: over 600 visitors (avg 15/day recently) from canada to dubai, china to germany. thanks to all for looking.
