now you get your chip?

it can expand in any old direction. that's the great things about concepts, they are able to get tangible on this crazy adventure. from idea to reality, and to make anything tangible there's a 5 stage process in there:

think -

conception of an idea
so you've basically got this, this energy source, and you've got consciousness. and the energy source is trying to reveal things to the consciousness. no one can explain it, then words come out. it's a conception.

denial
questioning itself. asking impending questions.

seeing its own reflection
this stage is like, it comes and confronts itself and it's not quite ready yet, it's still got another two stages.

after seeing itself, it becomes more and more in a self-denial stage and just going, 'i do not exist'

then the fifth stage it really comes around and becomes the birth of an idea.

jean baudrillard? simulacrum. world - if you drew a map, but your piece of paper was the same size of the world, where's the line between reality and that piece of paper? building on top of this map, extending upwards and outwards... basically you are reverse-engineering everything you've seen and done, and reconstructing everything that makes us us, and the world the world, and our general reality as a whole, we can reconstruct that.

first stage is: something is built. or an idea enters the great illusion

second stage is: it begins to mimic reality

third stage: it then becomes reality

fourth stage: it becomes a hyper-reality

Sensory enlightenment

we are, i see, far too concerned with what we represent, our symbology and our identity.

The artist must seize this apprehension and show it, in all it's shame and beauty to those unaware of it's presence. By seeing we have the potential to be something other than ourselves gives us the ability to CHOOSE to be what we are, no longer a fact of the universe, no longer the cards you are dealt, but a conscious choice to uphold YOUR values, not those given by society or circumstance, but those you have fought fore and intrinsically know as true. The artist sees themself as a being, who could lend their spirit power to any cause but has a responsibility to only project truth, their truth, so others may see that there are waves in the atoms and subjectivity in the concrete. 

our world is as malleable as it is definite...

vines growing around
slowly up your arms and
into your eyes
it is a distant ache,
your body is so numb
and alive it barely
resists. there are too
many other things to
feel. thrown to and fro through the ocean,
darkness,
waves,
you can hear the sound
of whales and dolphins call
hundreds of kilometres away.
you give in. the vines
are rippling twisting bubbles now,
giving in. it spills from your
eyes mouth and nose, it rises
while you sink.

badly rolled cigarette birthday

same place on a comet. a badly rolled cigarette birthday party. party of all parties and commas essentially,,,so what did we have to offer. transferable intermingaling meaning and punns. thats just how we evolved. 3 salvidor dalis, and just Ian. so close your eyes and try to imagine 103 elements. CHIP AND A TART! the potential for nothing is intimidating. the artist is what he says he is, not what he is, artists create a myth.
