Glad to have visitors

先日のアンティークマーケットに来られた方（嬉しいことに私の作品を見てくださっている女性）が、友人で織りの先生と一緒にまた来てくれました。

写真中央がブライアン・ホワイトヘッドさんです。

彼はカナダ人で、現在は日本に住み、藍染めや織りをしています。また、蚕の飼育や生糸の紡績も行っています。 お二人とも、とても素敵な方です！

A visitor(the woman who to see my work,so I am glad) to our recent antique market came again with a friend and weaving teacher.

In the middle of the photo is Bryan Whitehead.

He is a Canadian who now lives in Japan and works as an indigo dyer and weaver. He also raises silkworms and spins raw silk. Both of them are very nice!

彼はカナダ人で、現在は日本に住み、藍染めや織りをしています。また、蚕の飼育や生糸の紡績も行っています。 お二人とも、とても素敵な方です！

ブライアンさんを「日本文化の担い手」「日本人より日本人らしい」「日本語が上手」とは言いたくありません。 布を作ること、自分の服を作ること、糸を紡ぐこと、植物から色を取ることは、国境や人種とは関係がないからです。 ブライアンさんのインタビューを読むと、私が考えていたことと同じことを言っていました。 宮大工になろうと思っていたこと、さらには、広告のデザインをしたり、絵を描いたりしていたこと！(私は現役のグラフィックデザイナー、イラストレーターです。)

ブライアンさんのインタビュー記事

ブライアンさんのスタジオのブログ

話は戻りますが、お二人は我が家の納屋を隅々まで見て、いろいろと買ってくださいました。 自分が使いきれない糸や道具が、形にしてくれる人のところへ行くのは、本当に嬉しいことです！

二人の方に言われました。あなたも織ったらどうですか」と言われたんです。

私はとにかく何かを作るのが好きで、古布で服を作ったり紙でステイショナリーを作ったりしています。 畑では野菜やハーブを作っています。廃油で石鹸を作ったり、ハーブでお香を作ったり。私の作品にまつわるもので作っていないのは、紙と布だけかも笑。 今作っているものを極める事で、今回の人生は精一杯。 誰かが作ってくれた素敵な布や紙を、精一杯活かせるように精進します！

I don't want to say that Bryan is a "bearer of Japanese culture" or "more Japanese than the Japanese" or "speaks good Japanese.  Because making cloth, making your own clothes, spinning yarns, and getting colors from plants have nothing to do with national borders or race. When I read the interview with Bryan, he said the same thing I had been thinking. It is the same thing that I was thinking of becoming a palace carpenter, and even the same thing that I was thinking of doing, designing advertisements and drawing pictures! (I'm an active graphic designer and illustrator)

Bryan’s interview

Bryan’s studio blog

Back to the story, the two of them looked at every inch of our barn and bought many things. I am so glad that these threads and tools that I can't use in my life are now going to people who can give them shape!

Two people told me. They told me, "Why don't you weave too?

I really like to make something,I make clothes from old fabrics and stationery from paper. In the field, I grow vegetables and herbs, make soap with waste oil and incense with herbs.Maybe the only things related to my work that I haven't made are paper and fabric:) By mastering what I am making now, I am doing the best I can with my life this time. I will devote myself to making the most of the wonderful cloth and paper that someone has made for me!

The Way of the House-Husband, vol. 1 by Kousuke Oono

SAGA vol. 1-6 by Fiona Staples and Brian K Vaughan

Top of the Top:

Born a Crime was probably my favourite non ficition, and most of that probably is due to Trevor Noah's narration skills. It was very entertaining and heartfelt.

Less uplifting but just as gripping in a different way was Empire of Pain. Excellent book that went deep into the why and what and hows of Purdue Pharma. Anger inducing.

Lazarus Heist is great and available as a podcast. The book is more or less the podcast word for word.

Fictionwise: I read Trust at the start of the year and it was a bit soon to declare as favourite of the year, but it's stil made the final cut. Just very imaginative and intriguing. Just my kind of MetaFiction. Clever without being cleverclever.

Demon Copperhead I read right off the back of Empire of Pain so maybe that coloured my experience. I've not read any Dickens so loads of references no doubt flew past me, but the language was acrobatic and zingy. I loved it.

Wrapped up the year on a high with North Woods. That was so unexpected and entertaining. Again with the playful language, memorable characters and a unique approach to tying all the various stories together. One that sticks in the mind and makes the writer in me wonder how I can replicate his style (with my own personal twist of course.)

#a whole bunch of books #reading roundup #Still one day to go but i don't think i'm going to finish anything else #year in books #2023 in books

Husserl, Heidegger & Existentialism - Hubert Dreyfus & Bryan Magee (1987)

What's Heidegger's justification for ontological difference?

COMMENTARY:

I’m not going to debate Frederick Dolan in regards to Heiddgar as he describes in his response to this question. The basis of this commentary begins exactly where he describes where Heideggar washes up on the beach of Reason and where the first 3 Laws of Logic encounter the 4th Law of Logic,

I am a process theology guru. In terms of Process Theology, I differ from Whitehead in terms of his doubt regarding the existence of The One as described in Revelation 4,2 I don’t believe in God: I’ve staked my life on the promise The One makes as a result of the story God tells about Godself in the Book of Job. I know The One, The Fear of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom and I had an experience of The One, directly, and was sent back to describe in the fullness of time.

Which occurred from me in 1953, the year of the 17 year locus, the year before the Army McCarthy Hearings. Jesus told me to return to life and to hold the encounter directly with the Living Jesus tending the gates of heaven, judging who was living and who was dead and He tole me, “You are definitely dead, son, but you’re a little early and we’re sending you back as part of the Heavenly Catch and Release Program. He said in the fullness of time, this experience would answer the questions Hershel and Heidegger could not answer because the linguistics had not acquired the language to describe what stopped them. They were as far as they could go with Descarte but Locke provides the key. Locke is a tipping point that makes Newton’s calculus possible. And F=MA (which I employ as a Hegelian Benchmark available for examination according to Hume’s theory of perception and his rules of evidence. Lock is the ontological link between Descarte’s cogito ergo sum and Lewin’s B=f(P,E)

The concept Newton’s calculus identifies is what we now employ as chaos.

I have just reviewed a YouTube video with a conversation between Dreyfus and McGhee, below, that shares exactly the narrative of Nolan and the transparency of the hammer is evidence that Hiedeggar was right on the edge of tripping over the chaos model I employ to describe flow states in combat and high performance that Kurt Lewin did, in fact, stumble over in 1943 when he and his colleagues coined the phrase “group dynamics”.

Substitute the hammer for a surfboard and the wood for the curl of the Banzai Pipeline and take Hiedeggar to the next level to see the curl of the Banzai Pipeline for Hegel’s wave of the future and you will come to understand Hegel exactly the same way as William F. Buckley when he boasted that he was standing on the wave of the future, like John Galt making the $ign of the dollar over America as Ground Zero for a political coup, shouting “STUP” and you will come to understand how evil William F. Buckley was as the tip of the ice berg of the John Birch Society, the cherry on the top of the Sundae.

I do organization development for 5th Wave High Performance, which is the core performance model of the Army Ranger School, Command and General Staff College and the War College. 5th Wave High Performance is based on Z Pulse Theory. The difference between the leadership model of the Harvard MBA program and the Army Ranger School, Command and General Staff College and Army War College is Z Pulse Theory, the difference between Dilbert and the first generation of  Starship Troopers of the Army combat veterans of Vietnam.

I am not going to attempt to fit Z Pulse Theory into Hiddeggar’s glossary, but i intend to expand his glossary to intermix with integrity with m glossary of Process Theology and Z Pulse Theory, which is basically anything associated with Kurt Lewin and Ltc> Frank “Be All You Can Be” Burns. Newton, Locke, Hume, Kant and Hegel are essential tools of Z Pulse Theory. Frank Burns and I are Process Theology gurus and we are the best in the world at what we do and he’s dead. He did Organization Effectiveness, and I do Organization Development, the difference being that Organization Effectiveness is an owner’s manual for a socialist society and Organization Development is a capitalist tool. His models were based on reforming a military prison and mine are based on venture capital. His shit is the theoretical foundation of virtually everything I do and I’ve added my own wrinkles in venture capital he couldn’t learn in the Army. That was the difference between him and Fred Smith. FedEx is based on an MBA thesis that got a C because his instructors didn’t understand Hegel. Elon Musk is proving the Standford-Silicon Valley Oligarchs don’t understand Hegel or their shit would be falling apart without the cash flows from Trump’s deficit spending keeping them afloat.

It is easy to fix. That what process theology is all about, I just read an article about the honey bee swarm as a self-aware society engaged in constant consensus planning. This connects the dots for me between Herrsel’s interest in AI and the scientists who developed the hardware to monitor the linguistics of honey bees beyond the Figure 8 dance. The hive depends the diversity of its population to thrive. The US Constitution is designed to produce a government that allows We, the People  to reflect the efficacy of outcomes of the honey bee swarm.

Hegel’s wave of the future exists is the Past-Now-Future point of chaos Heidegger intuits. Hegel is describing what it is like to be riding the wave of the future as a being. He is trying to get the reader’s mind to flow towards a common destination, but he didn’t have the linguistic package we now have of “chaos”. It’s like Dreyfus’s example of “laid back”

“Group Dynamics” is a missing linguistic package from Heidegger and Hesserl.

Be All You Can Be.

Cyberspace Airman named as Innovation Rodeo finalists > Eglin Air Force Base > Article Display

JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-LACKLAND, Texas – The Air Force Installation and Mission Support Center announced its finalists today for the 2022 AFIMSC Innovation Rodeo. Eight members of the Department of the Air Force’s installation and mission support community will now compete for a share of at least $1 million in funding and resources to pursue their ideas. “We’re very excited about our finalists this year,” said Jadee Purdy, AFIMSC chief innovation officer. “This year’s theme is Accelerate Change through Innovation and these creative Airmen are already doing that every day at their work centers. We want to help them expand across the entire enterprise.” Back in person after going virtual during the pandemic, the 2022 AFIMSC Innovation Rodeo will bring finalists to San Antonio for a week in August to learn from leading innovators, collaborate with industry partners and network with peers, senior leaders and innovation teams. Finalists will then pitch their ideas to a panel of senior leaders Aug. 19 in the Alamo City. In addition to funding, winners will be matched with innovation teams from AFIMSC primary subordinate units – Air Force Civil Engineer Center, Air Force Security Forces Center, Air Force Services Center and Air Force Installation Contracting Center – for project development, testing and execution. “Having a great idea is just the beginning. Building a project team with the right experts and stakeholders is the best way to move great ideas forward so they can ultimately change our Air and Space Forces,” Purdy said. “That’s what we’re going to do for these finalists.” The top ideas and finalists are: Autonomous Airfield Operations Craig Rednour, 375th Civil Engineer Squadron, Scott AFB, Illinois Idea: Integrating autonomous tractors with multi-functional modular attachments into airfield operations. Using BI Tools to Improve Acquisition Visibility Brandon Harris, 50th Contracting Squadron, Schriever Space Force Base, Colorado Idea: A business intelligence tool capable of downloading information from all acquisition systems and combining data into one usable database. Defenderzon Staff Sgt. Dillan Whitehead, 422nd Security Forces Squadron, RAF Croughton, England Idea: A website giving Air Force Security Forces Airmen the ability to order equipment they need directly from the appropriate supply section. Wearable Defender Tech. Sgt. Bryan Trumet, Air Force Security Forces Center, JBSA-Lackland Idea: A wearable non-lethal defense system for security forces personnel consisting of three modules: non-lethal module, communication module and tactical hardware module. After Hours Fitness Center Access at Every Installation Staff Sgt. Anthony Davis, 6th Force Support Squadron, MacDill AFB, Florida Idea: A system to integrate installations’ 24/7 fitness center access registration sites so users don’t need to re-register if they move or visit another installation during a temporary duty assignment. Authentic Resiliency: Playing to Enhance and Save Lives Capt. Portmann Werner, Air Force Installation and Mission Support Center, JBSA-Lackland Idea: Choose your own adventure style video game built to teach positive psychology to help Airmen prepare for life stressors. Network Bandwidth Expansion Lt. Col. Kyle Kremer, 45th Test Squadron, Eglin AFB, Florida Idea: A tailorable bandwidth expansion kit for existing networks to enhance secure, high-speed big data transfers, analytics, web access, communications and connectivity for the mission. Contingency Communications Network Lt. Col. Adam Wallace, 375th Air Mobility Wing, Scott AFB, Illinois Idea: An affordable, secure and solar-powered contingency network capable of preserving an installation’s mission generation capabilities when infrastructure is degraded or non-existent. The 2022 AFIMSC Innovation Rodeo will be streamed live on Aug. 19. For more information on the rodeo, visit https://www.afimsc.af.mil/innovationrodeo/. https://ift.tt/gErBIs4 https://ift.tt/28Qh1tz
