waves



Had an aweseom weekend, houseparty with 5 DJs all of who have residencies in southampton, me vjing, loads of people and a 5am slow down, saturday flew out to asda with ed in his toyota mr2, I woul definately kill myself driving that. saturday night did photography of gojira playing at the brook also saw the aweseom kid carpet and electric method who are dj/vj mash up kings. then was doing the sound desk at church, so really appreicated everyone's music as i was listening out all the time. then did photos and on out to jonny's stag do with Brown playing the sweetest funk since 1975 in the fat cat.

now for something completely different.

reading my "Visual Music" book doing research for my project and its talking about the discovery that music and colour are both waves of energy that the ears and eyes interpert to give us sound and sight. This kinda makes you see how its natural that they be closely related in our minds (ie if asked to play a note on a piano to represent yellow would play something high or low? answer in comments)

but that then made me think even more especially in relation to infa-red, its a colour on the specturm that is beyond what our eyes pick up, or a sound above 20,000Htz is beyond our ears. Spiritual experiences are almost always described by those who have had them as "energy", "warthm" or somes sort of having receieved energy from somewhere else. What if spirituality is a waveform of energy we have not tracked yet, one that we use our souls to recieve. God promises to reveal himself to anyone who would seek Him, who would wait on Him. Prehaps this is not just some sitting in an empty room, but a learning to recieve another waveform that is ourside our ears and eyes.

maybe its not that foreign or wierd, "where did that idea come from" is a common phrase but what is it actually asking? i dont think creativity is an internal process, "where did your inspiration come from?"
