Hommage to Deborah Butterfield - Rockford

"Hommage to Deborah Butterfield" Rockford - found steel and cement chunks, welded, by Deborah Butterfield. At Greg Kucera Gallery, Seattle. I digitally altered the perspective of the photograph in order to experiment and confirm that Butterfield's work would maintain it's strenght and uniqueness, perhaps a new glance from a different perspective enhances it's charm, that was my goal.

visual rebuke - the US House of Representatives - Oct.1, 2013

"At any point, Mr. Boehner could have stopped it. Had he put on the floor a simple temporary spending resolution to keep the government open, without the outrageous demands to delay or defund the health reform law, it could easily have passed the House with a strong majority — including with sizable support from Republican members, many of whom are aware of how badly this collapse will damage their party." NYT Editorial. Dereliction of duty - the shameful failure to fulfill one's obligations. (no joy in creating this image) "The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property." THE FLAG CODE Title 36, U.S.C., Chapter 10 As amended by P.L. 344, 94th Congress Approved July 7, 1976

Thoth - Egyptian God of Writing

Thoth's roles in Egyptian mythology were many. He served as a mediating power, especially between good and evil, making sure neither had a decisive victory over the other. He also served as scribe of the gods, credited with the invention of writing and alphabets (i.e. hieroglyphs) themselves. Music by Alo Jihad Racy, (excerpt). Traditional Near Eastern instruments were used in making this recording, including the nay, salamiyyah, buzuq, mijwiz, mizmar and others.

New Reflection in the Amsterdam Meadow *visualmyth*

"shelter from the storm"... dragging anchor, Green Island, B.C.

In 1979 aboard the beach seiner Northern Seas, on our way from Chignik Alaska to Seattle. The wind was howling at about 70mph and we kept dragging anchor. I had to pull it up, by hand, at least 10 times before the lighthouse keeper came down and we threw him a line attached to the chain and he tied us to a rock. Photo © Shane Jewell.
