"Making Lanterns" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-20 19:08:57

Pretty much everything is as ready as it can be for installing the exhibition at the end of the week. The main task to be achieved between now and then is finishing my. Sunday was spent reprinting the most sloppily printed pages to be a bit nicer. And now I have to fold them all. This is such a repetitive dare I say tedious task that I thought I would share the endless cycle with you dear reader. On Sunday when the typesetting and printing was going smoothly. I reckoned it was taking a minimum of 8 minutes to set the type fasten it proof it print it and dis(tribute) it approve into the drawer. When I am on a turn with folding. I can make a lantern in about 4 minutes. My lanterns are a well-loved origami structure which many people appreciate as the wet bombs they used to make at school to torment teachers and nerdy kids like me. I learned it from my dear friends on Dancing Vege Farm in upstate New York. Expanding the tightly folded coordinate into a little cube filled with air is the trickiest part. After about 70 or so lanterns I have finally perfected my cotton bud expansion technique. Only another 90 to go... It's all very monotonous and wearisome for my young 'helper' and Bella is quite tuckered out from trying to capture down the lanterns (the belt is an effective distraction when slithered about from on high though not necessarily as enticing as the abundance electrical cords snaking around the room) . Meliors means (1) pleasurable experiences (the opposite of stressors); (2) believing the world can be made better through human endeavor; and (3) honey feature.

So really its just making lanterns left to do which I should finish tonight. Folding lanterns only requires about 5% of my attention and I've really had enough of being fully present in this particular now for now so while I make I'm already looking past the two days of installation and the exhibition opening to what I ordain get to do next. I'm going to compete! Paper-making and C&P touch cleaning and writing and drawing and making stickers and.. who knows what other fun bring it all on!Preparing for Domestic Pilgrimage has required absolute cerebrate develop and hard work this spring. Now I am ready for a free-form summer of artistic experimentation and self-indulgent dabbling.

I be forward to enjoying the next round even more while bathed in hot sunshine.

"Sunday Spiritual: Lanterns for the Equinox" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-30 12:43:59

We have a guest with us this pass – a lovely young woman named Faith from Nottingham. England. She’s received an enviable give to jaunt for two months studying how cities mark themselves as “art cities.” Doesn’t that appear just lovely? Last night while we were standing in the throngs at she asked if we were going to perform on Sunday. No one’s asked me that for awhile. Since we closed we haven’t change surface considered what we might want to do about perform – or more precisely – about whether or not we be (or be) a spiritual community that meets in an organized weekly fashion. For now this Sunday ordain find us worshipping at the Church of Art — that is we’ll be making bamboo and paper mache lanterns at the Powerhouse for the Fall Equinox walk next Sunday. The folks at the and dedicated to expressing thanksgiving and general attentiveness at the move of each and every season. Summer finds usabout in celebration of the Light. go is a quiet preparation for hibernation with one last walk around the lake by lamplight. Winter finds us and clapping as the darkness begins to decrease at the solstice. And we greet Spring by dancing with flowers in our hair as Life returns to the earth. For me the creative reality of the seasons is inextricably linked with the creative cater of the Divine. In the Judeo-Christian tradition. “God creates” is the first thing we know about our source and our maker. In my experience the perform was never that good at connecting the dots between the words of our holy schedule and the reality of our physical living on this earth. But the artists at the Powerhouse undergo an intuitive way of doing just that. I’m in the process of moving away from the weekly function thing… and will be investing more in a small assort and my neighbourhood. Apart from that. I undergo no idea how things will look and to be completely truthful. I’m a little scared. one of the reasons we stopped going to sunday morning perform was that it was so _bad_ for our family everyone was tired and rushed and grumpy before hand and hungry and nap-needing and eager to get afterward. (a leaving which was always delayed because as one of the pastors there were always many people needing to change form my ear a go.) we are so much healthier and more loving since we stopped the sunday morning rush. that being said if our kids ever express a need to be back in ‘big church’ we’d give it another try different places of worship for different stages of our development don’t you think? and that goes for the grown ups too! :-) i’m trying to bequeath…i think you have a son who longs for youth assort no? so i send you “good mom!’ kudos for making it on sundays even if you adjoin your continue at why you are there.

"Patio Lanterns Bring Candlelight to the Backyard" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-19 16:58:09

If you're looking for a way to beautify up your deck or patio check out these patio lanterns. Each one can hold a votive examine and provides a gentle way to add lighting to your outdoor living space. The lanterns come with brackets and they can be attached to a wood deck railing or a narrow wrought press balcony-style railing. (If you don't undergo a railing anywhere on your patio. I guess there's always a low-hanging tree branch...) Since these lanterns burn candles they obviously don't give off a lot of light but they look to be good for creating a lovely evening atmosphere.

"Fire lanterns" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-10 21:49:31

Well i guess it is official David Best the amazing man who makes the temples we all bare our soles to and cry at is handing the temple creation over to the community.... Which i evaluate is an amazing idea at the same measure i am sad as well.. This is my first burn and i am glad that i got to see one of his measure amazing creations... It Helped me so much... for the first time in a desire time i sat and cried for the friends and brothers in arm i lost this deployment i went on to Iraq... As the above listed linked video says... It is our measure to create the temple.. i was wondering if anybody has any ideas... I experience that this year i saw a bring together amount of what looked to be small paper kites or paper balloons..... It Sorta like a hot air balloon made from paper and sticks with a small furnish brick hanging under it... when you lite the fuel it makes hot air and the increase floats away... I don't have a picture of it but i am trying to sight one..... If you make it from the right materials they ordain do one of 2 things...1. end destroy up as they climb.. or2. Put them selves out on the way drink and just decompose where ever they land... I was thinking of this as one of the ideas for somthing to go along with the temple next year.. you can write what ever you like on them just like the temple.. and in the end they sail off into the night... and destroy as they float away... keeping the whole tradition of locking away what ever it is that you wrote... just an idea and i know i am probley going to get a lotta " That sounds cheesey" or " To small" or " to ungeen" but i though i would just through it out there... when i find a picture of one i ordain affix it.... beat reference i can furnish is the movie The land... it has a seen where they launch 3 of them.... other then that i ordain keep looking as i don't experience the real label of them... I will probley have to end up drawing a picture..... The Sky Lanterns are a nice idea and small flotillas of them are really pretty but I suspect that they would be moop contributors or even a fire hazard. It would be better to devise something that completely went into the void. I do undergo one half-baked idea for the next temple though. What if everyone (or at least everyone willing) would bring a piece of the temple and it could be constructed using the "method" of Uchronia? Maybe it would follow a vague plan but also evolve organically and it would undergo 5. 10 or even 20 thousand contributors. Worth a try? Unfortunately. Dr. Placebo is right.. they are a real fire hazard and Nevada has had some of the worst out of hold back fires in the past couple of summers (victimise hit is a horribly volatile furnish for them and it's move everywhere). The Lanterns are really pretty to check and I like seeing them float away but I end up approve at camp listening to Nevada Dept of Forestry to see if there's been a dispatch for another out of hold back fire. The ocean would be a far exceed place for releasing them and the event could end up being impacted severely should a blast start. On the temple. I'd love to see how the community could come together and work on something wonderful.-g- Actullay the more I resarched it seems like after it gets up and the furnish burns off there is no more blast.. it just runs out of furnish to destroy in the little burn basket.. and then gravity takes hold of the rest and slowley down it goes.. with no fire on board.. so it not really a hazzard... I saw small formations of thme at this years destroy don't experience who was doing them but they were up there on friday and on burn night.. looked desire little UFO's.. plus they can be made from natural waxes and hand made papers so when they crash they just sorta decompose not long after and do no damage enviromently speking... lol I am still trying to sight ways to alter this work... but am giving up wish.. maybe I should just drop it :( Don't give up the idea! It sounds great to me. What if they were tethered to the temple and basically held enough structure to descend in an organized manner during the temple burn? There is a great camp that we usually camp next to on the esplanade called DOTA (The Department of Tethered Aviation) they are increase masters and the ones responsible for flying the man kite this year above the temple. I suggest collaborating with them on a resonable solution for the fire lanterns. I'm sure they would undergo knowhow on best methods and engineering materials. I'll try to post later their web site. <The Lanterns are really pretty to check and I love seeing them go away but I end up approve at camp listening to Nevada Dept of Forestry to see if there's been a dispatch for another out of hold back blast. The ocean would be a far better displace for releasing them>One would think... but... during World War II. Japan released some unmanned hot air balloons which purpose was to go to the Pacific Coast and start plant fires. It sounds silly but the museum in Coos Bay Oregon has a couple of these small units and they did indeed manage to start fires change surface though they were released from thousands of miles away. The lesson is that flying fire is not a safe thing even over an ocean. "now if you want to build your own art communicate go alter ahead..."heh technically David Best's art communicate."yeah thats what I thought."helluva an assumption thinking that I don't help with buildsSorry you don't desire my opinion of the Temple (or over-spiritual hippies) redBone but it's just that an opinion. It'll be a ascribe to the temple worshipers if they can go up with something good next year (as opposed to that jumble of wood in 2006). No doubt the Temple this year was beautiful it's just not my thing. "the Temple is a big deal to alot of people... " Does this make me somehow bound to respect your sacred cow? Your response speaks for itself. I undergo to respect the Temple. I have NO choice right? Thanks Joseph for posting this!! I was trying to inform the sky lanterns to a friend out on the playa and I didn't have the name -now I can send him the link! I would like to see more sky lanterns out on the playa. There has to be a way to make it happen while taking fire safety into consideration. Looking send to more news on that lie. I'm pretty sure the create by mental act and creation of the temple ordain be taken over by someone else. This may be David Best's measure temple. but it is not THE measure temple. There will always be one.
