stepping off the edge with desire
he was the flyer on perception's broken wings
sixteen times he bounced and landed on the ledge
with the shack at the back where the 
old man sat on some  wooden crates
and spoke of gates in dreams
and trips and traps and strategies and 
cautionary tales about inorganic beings
and how to catch a rabbit or lion or a squirrel
with some sticks and strings

sticks 'n' strings

scalar fields pt 9: sticks' n' strings- with stonerjazz

Why the AI Race - What's it all about? Intro, Press Play

Autumn is almost upon us in the Northern Hemisphere as Summer disappears as another Cycle dawns...and this ol' world keeps spinnin' on.  

May you enJoy the Energies released, 
and feel their Rhythmic Flow beneath your feet!

The Good Train (Chooo Choooo)

I am this
So I can't be that
A locked up mind
No matter the fact
Imaginary lines dividing our clan
Such divisive mindset of bias by plan

True value is found on a centered line
Yes we veer off course
Sense returns us in time
Weak power of ego derails our train
Then the power of one finds the tracks again

When far from the line
You don't hear old friends
The chat becomes shout
With malice meme trends
We list as too liberal
Or get racist with rights
Neither tribe ever sees
On the tracks there's no fights

This is digitally sown
By your own algorithm
Fake power confirmed
By a fed bias shism
We're averaged to side
Sold out for divide
In this drama
Brain jailed from centered confide

Those who lead from this partisan pain
Just amplify lies and stay departed from sane
Here's to talking back on the train
For the good of our lives
Back in the middle we' tame

The good train is always here
We hop aboard when we lose the fear
The good train finds arms a ' link
Choo tuned together
We merged to think

The idea to try and link the falsetto to the strings came from these geniuses from Brighton the other day. Thaaaaaaanks teachers ✌🏻🎶🔆

Apparently, most creatures with hearts, that live natural lives have 1.5 billion heart beats in their lives. Larger animals generally live longer and have slower pulses and smaller animals hearts beat faster but have shorter lives. But we all get 1.5 billion beats. (Thanks Physicist Sean M. Carroll for that epic bit of knowledge - https://youtu.be/pLbSlC0Pucw?si=3SRmY0hYsrFuAd1h)

Because of science and medicine humans live twice as long as before modern medicine existed, so we get 3 billion beats now until we go permanantly on our journey back to the Sun!

We're ever so slightly lucky to be in this position in this time and on this journey.

Given all the bullshit people argue about, my guess is there are way too many people that don't appreciate that. We have one shot. One set of heart beats and then that's it. Wouldn't it be way better if we just enjoyed it together as we perfect our explanations of this reality rather then stay in a bubble and our own faked version of the universe and our surroundings. But I'm just a pea so what would I know... 🫛 🎶🕺🏾
