i have been thinking about shadows .Shadows are strange things and even the term
can mean many things.From being a person's 'shadow '( following them around ) to
implying the sinister ' a shadowy figure ' usually meaning a crook that doesn't want to be seen
In art , especially photography the shadow can be used to great dramatic effect
as shown in this excellent work by

I have been thinking about art and the relationship it has with the artist .
The recent Michael Jackson controversy is a perfect example .
Can we separate the art from the artist or are they so entwined that this is impossible ?
My argument is we can , as long as the art is not exploitative of
a situation that is unpalatable.
But then again this raises more conundrums.
Some of the most striking art is propaganda art.
Acknowledging the expertise of a recruiting poster does not necessarily mean we are pro - war
or indulge in a cultural revolution.
There has been recent discussion in Australia about the relationships that Picasso had with hi
Thinking and THINKING
I have been thinking about thinking.Now this is not an original thought .
Everybody has thought about this.I think.I am gonna have to watch this train of thought
or I am going to end up wrapped up in my own words better than a food item in the supermarket !!!
A bloke called Descartes once reckoned that '' I think therefore I am ''. Cogito Ergo Sum if I remember.
But how many of us overthink things ?How many of us don't think properly when we need to ?
I know it is very hard to not get overwhelmed.All the shit that comes at you is enough
to make you become one of those hermits that live in a cave.The problem is of course that

Hurt and Hurt
I have been thinking about pain.Look out I might get dark here.Johnny Cash understood pain long before he did Nine Inch Nails 's song Hurt.Pain can be a terrible thing - no not a burnt finger
or a sprained ankle or even a punch in the face ( and I have had plenty and given plenty ) - punches and burns though I have never had a sprained ankle though people tell me it is painful and I am gonna take their word for it.
The pain I am talking about is that gutwrenching emotional pain.Trouble type pain.Jimi Hendrix type song about it.I found out an old fiancé of mine died .I don't know the circumstances but hey I ain't 92 so I guess it weren
Nothing and Nothing
I have been thinking about nothing today.
Well not exactly nothing ( I can see I am gonna bind myself up in knots with this )
or is that '' nots '' see it's happening already !!!
No , not the nothing of a blank stare of a boss who has just been asked for a pay-rise
or the nothing look of a police officer when you come up with some idiot reason about
why you did something you shouldn't have done.
I am thinking about the joy of doing nothing.
The Italians have a phrase for it :
''Il Dolce far Niente ''.
The Australians also have a phrase for it.
Sweet Fuck All or S.F.A . as it is commonly abbreviated.
I am on holidays at the moment
