    skein


      The present epoch will perhaps be above all the epoch of space.
      We are in the epoch of simultaneity: we are in the epoch of
      juxtaposition, the epoch of the near and far, of the
      side-by-side, of the dispersed. We are at a moment, I believe,
      when our experience of the world is less that of a long life
      developing through time than that of a network that connects
      points and intersects with its own skein. One could perhaps say
      that certain ideological conflicts animating present-day
      polemics oppose the pious descendants of time and the determined
      inhabitants of space.
       
        Michel Foucault
      
      To arrive at the purity of the gaze is not difficult, it is impossible.
       
        Walter Benjamin
      
      It is necessary to make images that are themselves capable of self-movement.
       
        Gilles Deleuze
         


     
      ART-TRA

      According to Nietsche art is the lie we tell ourselves in order
      to live with the "truth",suggesting that artistry may well have
      more to do with being crafty than practicing a craft.The self-
      assigned task of the artist is to attempt to avoid boredom
      by applyng skill,cunning and theory to the core of reinventing
      everiday.In so doing art and artistry are freed of ordinary res-
      triccions,and granted full license to deviate from every fact,
      form or rule simply for the sake of effect .Throught study,obser-
      vation,and experience,skill is eventually acquired resulting in lies
      that are less obvious ,and more technically proficient,often to
      the point where mere techne is mistaken for truly crafty execution.
      Art,however,allways fails to transcend its deceitfullness.It inevitably
      trips over its own feet,limping...stumbling...falling for a
      representation
      of an assasination that just as easily be the frame for a suicide .

      El espíritu respira vida
      En cada flor y en cada árbol
      Y promueve nuestras relaciones
      Con el misterio sagrado de la vida.
      La red que nos une
      Es el espiritu bondadoso que tenemos,
      La abundante e ilimitada expresion
      De la respiracion del creador divino.
      El género humano esta buscando siempre
      La forma de medir el alma,
      Sin llegar nunca al espiritu
      Que hace que la creacion sea un todo.
      Los fragmentos descansan en cualquier parte
      Del mundo natural que conocemos,
      Pero cuando olvidamos la unidad,
      Dejamos de honrar el flujo de la Creacion.
      El espíritu fluye en unidad por
      La fuente de donde nace todo,
      Visible para cada buscador que
      Ha hallado la llama eterna.
      Esa conexión ardiente a la vida
      Descansa en el amor que queda dentro,
      La Unidad que no nos deja otro remedio
      Que ver el espíritu en toda nuestra familia.
