IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS

beneath a GemScope Microscope, with Leica compound-element magnifying lenses....silver nitrate images just resemble the components of simple organic materials.....disassocated from the 'larger picture'......confounding one's attempt to get to the  source material that becomes the constructs upon which we construct Reality.......The vast Labyrinths of Memory are contained by infinitesimally tiny electrical circuitry....with 'room to spare'....within the soft tissues cramming our craniums.......

At 'symphony'.......just feet away from our 'first row seats'..... I surveyed the big, glossy Steinway Concert Grand Piano, rolled out on some beautiful bronze caster wheels......and, admiring the beautiful 'Antique' string instruments, in anticipation of their wonderful tones and timbres, I became a bit wary of what to expect from this shiny, ' new' piano......Then the guest pianist delivered us the Beethoven Piano Concerto in B Minor......played on this overly 'bright' new, plastic-keyed monster......I wondered...."Why don't pianists play OLDER PIANOS.....that sound more like the original instruments that the music was composed 'for'....??? My favorite pianos are those that were built a hundred years...or so....ago.....Like other 'stringed' instruments.....a piano ages well.....I'd like to hear/read Nathalie Stutzmann's opinion about this......She had to stand a couple of feet away from the Steinway's...

THIS MORNING, BEFORE SUNRISE, I REACHED UNDER THE BED TO RETRIEVE A MOBILE PHONE THAT HAD SLIPPED FROM IT; FINDING AN OLD SWISS QUARTZ WRISTWATCH THAT I'D NOT WORN IN YEARS......NOTING, THAT THE TIME ON THE WATCH WAS 'EXACTLY' THE SAME AS CURRENT THE TIME DISPLAYED ON THE PHONE.......HOW 'SEEMINGLY IMPOSSIBLE' WAS THAT, SINCE THE WATCH WAS 'ELECTRIC' AND ITS BATTERY WAS LONG DEAD?......I DONNED THE WATCH AND RETURNED TO SLUMBERLAND FOR A FEW MINUTES; THEN, AWAKENED....AGAIN....TO NOTICE THAT THE TIME ON THE WATCH WAS THE SAME AS WHEN I FOUND IT......AND WAS NOT OPERATIONAL!      

although this 'condition'.....common to Artists and Creative Humans.....may appear, in childhood ....and persist, into old age  .... the messy, disorganized and congested room, shown in this photograph,  was the London  'workroom' of the famous artist,  Francis Bacon....
