Wassily Kandinsky had rhythm.

der ... i’m one day off... i thought today was Wednesday. i know we’re suppose to post on Thursday. i know i signed up. But now posting would be like homework.

i’ll see you on your rhythm. Hey, i can pay a visit, i just cant pay attention! Please no hissing and boo-ing...

In time lapse ... seeing a sprout emerge from the soft dirt, reaching upward, bloom, settle, + die in seven seconds. The experience of ideas that develop + pass in this way. Before i can register + blink ... gone. 

The only condolence, but none less frustrating, is that another is on its way. Always another. It’s been a day of wicked deja-vu.

There is a rhythm to ever act. -Yagyu Muneno

    Don't know much about Kandinsky but like this work, I do! And great imagery on the time-lapse plants :)

    You are quite right Kandinsky did have rhythm. His work sends out pulses like one of those pulsating red dwarf stars. Thanks for reminding us about visual rhythm, it is important.

    This little mind
    Cannot find
    The sense in this.
    But given time
    I might find
    Myself in this.

    Happy TT

    Repetitive rhythms of deja-vu days... There's something lovely in the familiarity and frustrating in the repetition of the experience of deja-vu.
