The Magic Dick Vandalism

When do kids start to think about sex? Walking towards the store this afternoon I saw this graffiti using chalk.

It is quite fascinating to see how puberty is post perversion LOLS:) This level of erotic expression at an early age is a sign of evolving sexual paradigms. Seeing a dick photo or a dick vandalism is normal but seeing a vandalism of perversion such as Boob F%$kING done by a pre-teen or early teen child is in need of a doctor to publish an update to what puberty and sexuality is for the new evolving minds of the youth.

To give justice to this piece of street art, not to be unseen, a form of true artistic expression by the youth, then I shall give time to color it.

Interesting how our minds evolve based on …………….. ?

You know the answer to that.

Basic Imaging Going Back

POST

Basic Imaging is Therapeutic Sometimes

In the world today we may appreciate more the nostalgic, than the post modern imagery. Is my brain having a hard time adapting to Ai imaging? it is so fast. Ai is winning the processing game. We are losing but don’t lose hope we can still grow our brains and cognition free of charge just eat them brain foods well.

Imaging and Slow Internet. What is Happening to the Metaverse Trend?

What is happening to the Metaverse Trend?

Tech and it’s problem with Hacking is a risk that most people like me do not want to invest money in. The ‘weary’ vibes is strong in todays digital web landscape. Owning digital assets registered as token assets or potential money bit is there but a risky investment. Making it on the other hand is cool but with no promise of selling or making money. Money is still slim as of 10/31/2023.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN/////////

My internet is so slow that finishing work is hard. Doing things offline is better. Unplugging and doing work I think accomplishes more than waiting for the browser to load with inconsistency. I no longer have goals for the website aside from creating a smart home. The capital to fund it will be my problem but not to post on this website. As for the Halloween I will post 5 photos that can describe or portray the entering of the winter season.

May the departed be at peace the souls and the saints. AMEN.

META VERSE is not yet that established……….Too Fragile………..
Imaging feels like a dead end and plugging it to the metaverse feels like a neglected circuit.

Cause and Effect My thoughts on Causality and Karma

KARMA AND CAUSALITY 

What is karma? Karma is causality. Many people believe that karma is judgement from the lord or deity, but it is not. Karma is basically the observed reality of effects based on causes. Let us go into a probable past where nomads were studying the map of the plains and trying to navigate the best place for food. The nomads will certainly make mistakes but committing a lot of mistakes leads to the tribes suffering or even death. To solve this problem one great sage, prophet or thinker will establish a form of notation or record keeping on what actions result to what effect, such writings and record keeping is like a book of karma.

Example :
Do not leave big fires unattended. Why? Animals might stroll around and spread fire throughout the village or tents.

Do not go deep in the forest without enough resources and weapons such as machetes or blades. Why? Harmful animals and natural elements might hinder you from coming back to the tribe.

Thus, these things are karmic patterns. What you do is what you get. In a popular sense. “What you put out is what you receive.”, another form of karma in a more subtle rather than gross form.

Let us define karma based on modern definitions.
“Karma is a concept of action, work or deed, and its effect or consequences. In Indian religions, the term more specifically refers to a principle of cause and effect, often descriptively called the principle of karma, wherein intent and actions of an individual (cause) influence the future of that individual (effect):”

So, karma is basically cause and effect, now let us dive into the mastery or understanding of karma in an adept perspective. Knowing karma is just understanding Bad == Bad and Good == Good . Knowing this results in an intuitive knowing on what and not what to do. The Torah or bible is a good book to understand karma. The experiences of the people of God, the 12 tribes have been through enough causes to know enough effects to survive for millennia. Some texts even know good karma as per the proverbs of Solomon. The manuscript of good karma and bad karma in a book. The maturity of the person reading will understand karma in a deeper sense when they read a karmic book such as the bible, fairytales, puranas and even silly stories from the streets is a story about karma. All tales kept, preserved and passed on is a story of karma. Knowing most stories and reading most books that gives a moral lesson is a book about karma. Even tragedies are warning books of bad karma. Understanding karma this way will make you see that publishing of texts and media is based purely on spreading the word of karma.

An adept in karma need not experience all the bad karma and hardships of the world. They need only to be open to hear, see and listen. Appreciate all the publishers in the world that spread the stories of karma from the past till today. It keeps us alive.

WHERE IS THE BOOK OF KARMA?

The book of karma is all our collective experiences leading to wellbeing, may it be a bad karmic book of sinister origin or a saintly tale of a devoted Christian. It is my intention and the intention of all writers and poets to keep the tradition of spreading the good news of karmic life, alive and preserved and without it we might go extinct. Keep reading the books people publish, it could be about something bad, a karmic tragedy or something good like a tale of grace, victory and luck. Keep seeing, reading and hearing the society of karmic preachers. The writers and the poets, the film makers and the songwriters and the lawmakers and philosophers. They are all part of the society of karma. The society of causality keeping the writings and tales of survival and triumph alive since the birth of the first monkey man.

Detachment from my Photography Study

PHOTOGRAPHYY AND ATTACHMENT

Doing photography seriously for 9 years ends up in attachment. Attachment in my practice of Yoga is encouraged but there is a concept called constant practice of detachment. Samadhi Pada 12.

“By constant, repeated practice by detachment these here cease to identify with.”
Abhyasa vairagyabhyam tan nirodah

In discovering the self the practice of seeing samsara or thought fluctiations as just disturbance to the self. Self identity becomes a part of life but not life itself. Constant practice of this leads to proper kriya Yoga.

DOING PHOTOGRAPHY LEADS TO ATTACHMENT YOGA GROSS

Doing photography for years creates muscle memory and mind function based on the task of creating an image, this then creates a residue of attachment specially on images that has significant meaning and purpose. Doing tasks and deeds may it be appreciated or not leads to some degree of attachment and that attachment is kind of a false sense of the true self. The photographer is the identity created by this attachment. You are a photographer now because you have been doing yoga or kriya action towards creating an image. This by time tends to stick and creates a bulk of knowledge and wisdom that the self identitifies with. Detachment towards it is now a task as the same as making it your identity.

Letting go of my study of photography from value assesment, space and color calibration and bending ideas to create an image is kind of a challenge but not so much for the initiated. In todays time it is healthy to have some level of gross attachment for it resembles a healthy life and a form to see as others percieve you as an identity. Now, letting go of all this study will be a task to do.

My study of photography for 9 years now rests on a word document explaining lines and values that make an image, of what defines value and what gives it form. My strongest attachment towards photography is the science of perception and seeing different forms of images may it be abstract or logical. A bending line can be beautiful or maybe for some a straight line can be more pleasing. Detachment towards this learning in the past is a task indeed.

WHAT CAN BE THE FUTURE OF MY PHOTOGRAPHY?

 

What I think now is this my detachment towards colors and value evaluations will go towards documentations and capturing of moments, it is like going back to simple taking of pictures to illustrate something else rather than an image making an impact or creating meaning to satisfy the senses. The coming years I hope will lead me to a better understanding of the world around me as it is rather than creating versions of it based on my perception and ability to see in dimensionalities of expression.

I will see you in the future of what I can put on this website but as of now this website will be in a mode of detachment towards my theories and practice in the art of photography.

Yoga and Photography

8 limbs of Yoga and Photography

YOGA AND PHOTOGRAPHY

Hello, What is my ultimate goal in life? The answer to that is to perfect my dhyana samadhi in the ways of purposeful enlightenment. Why photography and not just be a monk inside a cave? The answer to that is how can enlightenment be experienced visually and auditory when it is not visual and audible for some but an experience. How can I translate the experience of samadhi to media. Another question arises from the question of why photography? My goal in life is to translate my experience of samadhi in film or imagery.

SAMADHI

My samadhi experience is as simple as just being lucky with my pranayama. I was doing my pranayama work and when my body just jolted somewhere that made me feel bliss. It was partial not a full body experience but the reality of life became like the movies. The clouds smiled and the mountains near our village became something out of bollywood film, that experience made me want to show it in photographs and film making.It took me a couple of minutes to get back to my normal sense. Experiencing samadhi is priceless and I recommend people to experience it atleast once in a lifetime.

ENLIGHTENMENT IS EASY BUT MASTERY IS HARD

How to reach enlightenment? Enlightenment is just realization of the highest known, to me that is enlightenment, getting to a point of realization as a complete full absorption of thought and matter. A man realizing the full meaning of a topic or asking. That for me is enlightenment. Now how do we translate it to tradition it is simple Dhyana Samadhi completion. Samyama. It’s peak is enlightenment. It is easy to do. Methodology is to sit and meditate till you can fully reach a conclusion of its essence and meaning. Live like a sannyasi, walking the streets or sitting in meditation, it is hard at first but by time you just feel like a kid looking for answers in life. It is not that hard beggars do it all the time. Enlightenment is easy but mastery of what you know, can do and understand is what makes a difference.

EXPERIENCE IN IMAGERY

copyright martinbelgica.com chaosphere cameras

The big goal is to translate everything to imagery the experience, that is what I want to do on this website as a post but not as a mold for everything, there is a saying in chaos magick by Peter J Carroll “All is permitted and nothing is true.” the words applies to a healthy mind your enlightenment is not the highest of all for all is vast and all is permitted and the possibility of it not being true is always there for one thing in reality that is constant is change. Now putting time and skill in imaging has a dead line on how on our age of digital publishing can an experience be expressed? Light, shadow and subject the tools on this can be put on a sensor and on print.

From a chaos magician of the shadow path to a tantric disciple to a photographic enthusiast moving forward in time. What would be the future of information in images as translated. Let us enjoy the ride of the evolutionary truth of change and entropy.

Japan A trip of Questions and Amazements

Japan Nihon…

A very interesting space on earth. A land full of culture and heritage leaping with technological force. Seeing Japan is like acquiring a cube. A land with different faces. My family went to Osaka, Nagoya and Kyoto. I being a very relaxed person, do not push forward towards something without the necessary training to perform tasks. Japan was a strong land to deal with and so my Nihongo was my downfall. Interesting people are Japanese people without a decent amount of Japanese words counts to me as not taking photographs based on the standards of the land, expect my photographs to be just a beginner level Nihon taking photos of a very advanced level Nihon. Japan is an advanced subject to tackle, I was not prepared to take it on and so we step back and see what can be photographed and what is the proper ways to capture Japan on a standard of a ‘BAKA’ (Idiot).

OSAKA JAPAN

1st to tackle is the streets of Osaka Japan, Osaka is a lively place with a lot of infrastructure and interesting people, Osaka is a friendly place with a tint of modern living. We stayed at a building in Tanimachi 9 Chome with good air conditioning and a safe neighborhood. What you can do there is visit the night life and eat some good ramen.

 Stores are also present if you are into shopping tech and Japanese items for consumption or to take back home as a tourist. Osaka nightlife is kinda shaded with the artificial lights of signs giving the vibe of a cultural phenomenon of strictly business in Osaka japan.

People are blurry while the Osaka city lights shines well. Moving photographer capturing at shutter speed. 1/160 f/8 ISO3200

there are a lot of shops and bars inside Osaka Japan. In Tanimachi 9 Chome where I stayed it was quiet enough to sleep but when you want to party, be kinda loud(Not so much) and enjoy, the trains station is just around the corner where you can just ride to a near machi or town and have a go. Having friends in Japan is super required and is pleasurable for you can visit easily if you have the luxury of time and money. 

 Food in Osaka is delicious, I tried a ramen house with the family and enjoyed it very well, also some udon Yakisoba was sweet and superb.

KYOTO JAPAN

Kyoto the samurai vibes, A very cool relaxed town in Kyoto Japan. People with kimono and also Bhuddist temples all over the place. It was a nice place to visit and have fun. To feel and experience the diverse religious beliefs of Japan from Shinto to Bhuddism and beyond, Kyoto must be on your list. The strict appearance of Kyoto and its people will be the testament of what Japan is. Experiencing the place makes you think of what the world really is.

The Bamboo forest of Kyoto japan is a place to take deep insight towards the beauty of nature. The natural parallel forms of the bamboo touched by the light of the heavens makes you turn towards the soul or the divine just being there.

People are seeing the wonders of the bamboo forest. Assisting each other as they walk towards the pathways.
the light on the background spills forward towards the observer. The parallel lines of the bamboo creates a filter or buffer of light.

NAGOYA JAPAN

What can I say about Nagoya Japan? Interesting people live in Nagoya, you will see a lot of cosplay, good food, gaming culture and a good marketplace. You can find everything in Nagoya Japan. Sadly we only stayed 2 nights in Nagoya but the place was kind of relaxing and home like.

TRAIN MADNESS

The train stations in Japan is very effecient but due to my lack of Nihongo it is kinda confusing. The subway system is vast and impressive. Taking yourself all over japan is like just taking train rides to places. It is very fun but confusing. It is like a maze transferring from platform to platform and train to train. Having decent nihongo and knowing how to read kanji will make your trip much more fun. 

 

Going back to Japan is a natural tendency. Studying their language adds the fun to Japan. Not knowing anything about their language is a big ‘NO’ due to the people not really answering back in english but in Nihongo. They have love and pride towards their own culture and preserving it is sensed. English speakers are found in Government establishments and Hotels but as for the people of Japan it is not in their mind I think or purposefully not their intention to start speaking English for Non-Japanese tourists. I do know they can speak English I can see it in their jaw, but I tell you they will not and that for me is a good thing. 

Till next time 
SAYONARA 🙂 NIHON 🙂 

Drama and Social Media Publishing

The Magic of Drama

A lost art indeed is the art of potrayal, many have been the victim of hyper publishing that drama is a lost art. Every media content out there is based on duplicity of one thing an algorithmic race towards the absurd prize of view counts and temporary fame that fades in a span of 3 months more or less. The 15 minutes of fame or 15 seconds of fame may now be realized by the users of social media and the consumer of Cable TV. A factual reality of hyper data consumpltion.

During the times of publishing 1 material per month to 1 material per week and the most hard time table is the 5 day stretch of 5 materials per week, a weekend rest then a restart. It was fun but tiring, each concept or material was thought of and carefully planned, producers pay money to make people see something beautiful Me myself It takes me days to make a Youtube video that is worth posting then editing and sound design for a separate day. Neglecting my drama and skill for portrayal it outputs a good material but with a taste of slack.  So for me to finish a 1 man production, I would need a 5 day work flow to output a good video polished ready for consumption. Rehearsing my lines and the magic of drama makes the difference.

NOW THAT IS WHAT I CALL JUNK MEDIA

Now 2023 we can say that imagery and poor portrayal is the pinnacle of content media. Bedroom banters and hyper screen writing. Let’s try to write a script in 5 minutes for a Youtube video.

EXT: ROAD – DAY

Man walks towards the checkpoint. He talks with a friend.

Man
Hey Kamusta na ang mga bagay bagay

Man2
Ayus lang naman, Malayo pa ba?

Man
hindi malapit na yan.

Man 2
Nandiyan na ba tayo?

Insert
face of man (Are we there yet face)

Man
Ayan na malapit na ang dulo ng walang hanggan.

Man2
Natatanaw ko na.

Man
nanabik na me.

Man 2
ako din.
(sexualization of tone and gesture)

Insert
Hot sun .

Man 1
nandito na tayo pare?

A hot girl appears wearing bikini.

Man2
Ang sarap…. Ang sharaap sharaap!

Man1
Oo ang sharap sharap!

Woman
Samalamig Samalamig kayo diyan samalamig.

Woman gives men a thirst quencher drink.

2 men party and drink with woman in bikini.

insert
Drink brand

Fades out.

It took me 5 minutes to write a silly scene like this .

This is the quality of material we see now on social media a 5 minute script and a simple multiple angle shoot the viola a good camera and microphone you get A grade material worth 5 minutes. I never did even think of sensible lines to hint and create misdirection towards the fact that they are thirsty.

ERROR OF TODAY
Error in my script is, How can the observer understand that they are walking and thirsty? What is the connection of sexualization towards the drinking of a beverage? Why are they walking in a freeway? A lot of gaps that needs to be filled in pre production and post but in today’s time who cares about that?
