A large cluster of songs were created through many nights gone unslept. This group of improvised/alternate takes from cassette tape recordings in 2009 piled up so I decided to release them and print out a limited number of hard copies in which most were sent out through the mail. Some are still available. "Promise Land" is really important to me lyric-wise and can intentionally be read into from many different angles. It may be on the internet but this is not a PRODUCT (god damnit- /Laughter\) I hope people enjoy it. Comments are welcome (If you hate/are disgruntled by it or enjoy it.)

In a thin-line related note: 01/11/2011 is Universal Quit Your Job Day.

-Update- New download directories have been added.

Gattius Emprero

There was this photo that I had taken a while back that has frequently been popping up on the back of my mind. When I was visiting New Jersey in June 16th of 2007 there was an old abandoned war-training building alongside the beach near the Atlantic Coast. Fort Hancock was the name of the area. The scene was like a decrepit concrete playground of squared off building frames and rooms all attached underneath the multi-leveled roofs. These rough concrete structures stretched well off along the side of the sandy and brush covered shore. Through the rooms were a strange feeling and historic airborne stickiness attached .

Many generations had been there able to visit since it’s closing, I think it was used for WWII though I’ll have to check back on that(Okay, checked it out.. yeah, WWII training amongst several other uses.) Graffiti of all lovely kinds were scattered throughout but in the end towards the farthest right there was a small room with an old rusted chair in the corner and the window was barred shut.

The walls were completely skinned with carvings of the initials and messages of previous visitors in a tone of subtle black and white that was amazing to the eye/s.

What I had done to the first image was the mirror effect where you select a portion and result in what may be considered a kaleidoscopic alteration. I've been using this effect for quite a while due to interesting results almost like a mixture of the Rorschach ink blot effect and ancient symbols.

After I mirrored the photo, initially right after these files were onto the computer, I was awed with how many depictions came flooding out of this image. Keeping the ‘jet was here’ scribing seemed a bit humorous to me at first intention and helped round out what is currently visible as a result. ‘Gattius Emprero’ (Cat Emperor) is the title, by the way. I thought I’d share it to see what any others might find in the image.

Obviously, because of the title, what I see is an Egyptian styled scribing with a Cat (Pineal Gland) emperor, arms up, neck shield and round sun template around it's neck base on it's thrown.

This portion of the photo really stuck out to me as well, but I'll let the interpretation open to the viewer.

2010 Dedicated To Chance

2010,2010,

No, It does not seem like a new year already, to me at least. Call it January, maybe I have just not been as worrisome about time or dates as I once was but it definitely feels more like the middle of something than the start of ‘yet another loop.’ While we have the perspective, we can heighten a certain mindset. We give ourselves resolutions as a term of applied living, so let’s continue off down the interest of curiosity and as I feel the past few months on a whole have seen in all directions, delve into the understanding of what is around/within/outside us. Also many people discontinue certain practices and habits, such as drinking or eating certain things, or participating is strenuous and stressful tasks. We can turn away from ideals of fear and worry and the traps that are all so apparent; The mindless ego games and soulless employments. Take a CHANCE and live the now. If life makes you uncomfortable or you cringe at waking to another day then by all means take the path to a new scenario if you can!

Yes, I dedicate this year to the action of chance. Take chance, part the usual route and see what kind of odd, yet remarkable experiences you can tap into.
Happy New Year to all. Remember, there is no future ;)
