"Lightweeds are living digital organisms. They grow indoors but depend on sunshine, rainfall and wind measured in the outside world through sensors placed on the outer walls of the building (these lightweeds are responding to information captured by sensors just outside the Museum.) As human traffic-- yes, you-- goes by, they bend, lose their seeds, and pollinate other walls throughout the space in a constantly evolving wallpaper that reflcts the character of the space and its use." | via looktouch on flickr | http://flickr.com/photos/looktouch/
This is love: to fly to heaven, every moment to rend a hundred veils;
At
first instance, to break away from breath –
first step, to renounce
feet;
To disregard this world, to see only that which you yourself have seen
I said,
“Heart, congratulations on entering the circle of lovers,
“On
gazing beyond the range of the eye,
on running into the alley of the
breasts.”
Whence came this breath, O heart?
Whence came this throbbing, O
heart?
Bird, speak the tongue of birds: I can heed your cipher!
The heart
said, “I was in the factory whilst the home of water and clay was abaking.
“I
was flying from the workshop whilst the workshop was being created.
“When I
could no more resist, they dragged me; how shall I
tell the manner of that
dragging?”

Great photo-stream by i like it! what is it? on Flickr.
do not attempt to adjust the picture
we are controlling transmission
if we wish to make it louder,
we will bring up the volume
if we wish to make it softer,
we will tune it to a whisper
we will control the horizontal
we will control the vertical
we can roll the image, make it flutter
we can change the focus to a soft blur
or sharpen it to crystal clarity
for the next hour sit quietly and
we will control all that you see and hear
we repeat: there is nothing wrong with your monitor
you are about to participate in a great adventure
you are about to experience
the awe and mystery which reaches
from the inner mind
to the outer limits
please stand by...
