Looks pretty colourful to me, John.
Last time I was in England I stared out the window for hours, fascinated by the dark at 3pm, the ice on the tree branches, the tiny flecks of snow in the dark sky. Thousand + year old buildings; train (Tube) stations with no rubbish bins (garbage cans for the Americans) - this was in the early stages of post-9/11 'anti-terrorism' - take away the rubbish bins so terrorists can't put bombs in them, right?
British cabs (!) stopping at one of the London High streets and not wanting to get out because I've never seen a million people on a street corner before (I live in the world's most isolated city, pop'n just over 2.5 million, pop'n density 2.5/square mile).
London Eye, Millenium wossname, British pubs, young women wearing on London's winter streets what young women were wearing on Australia's summer streets (shivering, but lookin' good
), cobblestones,, mushy peas and baked beans with
everything, red double-decker busses -- like our
ImageArt Ann said the other day, and
terse referred to a similar theme: about the ordinary and the visible.. Balzac said something about that, too - you can't write about a culture from its centre, you have to be on the edges to see it as a whole. Family systems theory says something similar about families -- if you (the therapist) want to know about a family, ask the 'black sheep'.
I'm going to consult with Dr Gilbert
JillyG about another possible prescription: take ten photos of ordinary stuff in your immediate environment using one of the glitche-ey cameras (e.g. Painted Cam as per mine above, Photo Booth, multitudes of others I can't think of right now) and see what looks different & how. In fact, I think that would be an excellent theme for either MC or LoA...
