Wherever
it wants,
the mind, it haunts
the sky
and all open spaces
yet it never
finds
a
way
to expand all the way
or move beyond day
and do the
momentary
thing...
so it sits in some spinning spirally space
and spits on itself
to pretend some grace
while I sit laughing
and wonder at the wild,
weird washing
of linguistic lace
that it lays
over the nothing
place.
Oh.
Just in case
it was wondered,
I have all done
and plundered
the perilous
and perfect
or at least the most
present of space.

It's Almost All Ideas
GENERATIVE ART
Art - Music - Architecture - Industrial Design - Web Art - Poetry - Visual Grammar - Design Approach - Teaching Theory - Mathematics - Virtual Environment - Literature - Artificial Life - Artificial Intelligence - Cellular Automata - Performances - Artificial Behaviors - Communication - Generative Robots - Mechatronic - Nanotechnology "Generative Art is the idea realized as genetic code of artificial objects.
Generative project is a concept - software that works producing three-dimensional, unique and non-repeatable events as possible and manifold expressions of the generating idea identified by the designer as a visionary world.
This Idea / human creative act renders explicit and realizes an unpredictable, amazing and endless expansion of human creativity. Computers are simply the tools for its storage in memory and execution.
This approach opens a new era in design and industrial production: the challenge of a new naturalness of the industrial object as a mirror of Nature.
Once more man emulates Nature, as in the act of making Art.
This approach suddenly opened the possibility to rediscover possible fields of human creativity that would be unthinkable without computer tools. If these tools, at the beginning of the computer era, seemed to extinguish the human creativity, today, with generative tools, directly operate on codes of Harmony and on codes of Identity.
They become tools that open new fields and enhance our understanding of creativity as an indissoluble synthesis between art and science.
After two hundred years of the old industrial era of necessarily cloned objects, the one-of-a-kind object becomes an essential answer to emergent aesthetical needs."
- Celestino Soddu, chairman of Generative Art Conferences

Belated Breathing
This hookah bowl filled me with a light and cooled smoke. My body adjusts appropriately and follows the river of light, rising from my mouth in a cool cool washing away.
I proceed to listen to Lucas read poetry and his book. I also continue to smoke.
I then find reason to get up and prepare some tea; red brush chai from Yogi Teas.
Tea steeping, I begin removing and selecting ingredients for some vegan-not-vegan pancakes.
Needless to say, after three four-grain, butter and maple syrup-cover hotcakes, fresh off the hot grill....
I am ready to end this day as a champion of my eternal bliss, banter, and beyond.
