The Miracle is You

Thomas Ives Haunting Photographic Images

Thomas Ives is a Waiheke Island, NZ based photographer whose portfolio contains impressionistic images that border the material and spiritual realms. Check out his images at thomasives.com. Soon to come, a new series of striking black and white images of the sea revealing patterns invisible to the naked eye in real time.

Transcendental Mix

A friend just sent this extraordinary blending of old and new, a 1929 Russian film footage with a modern jazz soundtrack by The Cinematic Orchestra. I found it hypnotic and hope your mind will enjoy the ride.

Great Performance + Words of Wisdom From Multimedia TED Presenter

TED (Technology, Entertainment and Design) is an annual event that presents individuals doing extraordinary work in these three areas. I have posted several wonderful videos and the one below featuring multimedia director and performer Natasha Tsako is another standout.

Natasha is a Swiss born artist living in Miami and performing there and around the world. Her appearance at TED last year featured excerpts from her one-woman show, UP WAKE, that integrates sound, computer generated images and a live stage performance. Her performance is amazing and her empowering concluding comments on the video are powerful. I have extracted them so readers can appreciate their depth. Enjoy!

“A bitterwseet, funny, tragic world with existentialist shades of Samuel Beckett and especially Marcel Marceau.     “Octavio Roca, Miami New Times

There is a revolution
It’s a human and technological revolution
It’s motion and emotion
It’s information.

It’s visual, musical, sensorial, conceptual, it’s Universal

It’s beyond words and numbers:
It’s happening.

The natural progression of science and art finding each other to touch and define the human experience.

There is a revolution in the way we think, share and express our stories, our evolution.
This is a time of communication, connection, and creative collaboration.
Charlie Chaplin innovated motion pictures and told stories through music, silence, humor and poetry.

He was social and his character, The Tramp, spoke to millions. He gave entertainment pleasure and relief to so many human beings when they needed it the most.

We are not here to question the possible but to challenge the impossible.

In the science of today, we become artists.

In the art of today, we become scientists.
We design our world. We invent possibilities.
We teach, touch and move.
It is now that we can use the diversity of our talent

to create intelligent, meaningful and extra-ordinary work.

It’s now.
