I’ve learned that making a ‘living’ is not the same thing as ‘making a life’.
I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.
I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back.

Bull by Pablo Picasso
Complexity means “reduction and removal of redundancy”, as first defined by the philospher John Locke (1632-1704): “Ideas thus made up of several simple ones put together, I call complex; such as beauty, gratitude, a man, an army, the universe.”, and as illustrated in art by Picasso in his famous bull drawing.

Pablo Picasso created ‘Bull’ around the Christmas of 1945. ‘Bull’ is a suite of eleven lithographs that have become a masterclass in how to develop an artwork from the academic to the abstract. In this series of images, all pulled from a single stone, Picasso visually dissects the image of a bull to discover its essential presence through a progressive analysis of its form. Each plate is a successive stage in an investigation to find the absolute ‘spirit’ of the beast.
Here We Go Magic | “Tunnelvision”
“All of the footage was captured on the edge of a large lake in the Catskill Mountains. “The temperature had dropped the night before and the lake was starting to freeze. Everything was half-frozen,” recalls Peking’s Nat Johnson. A lot of the footage was recorded with Snejina’s homemade kaleidoscope fastened to the lens of the camera. The footage was then manipulated by hand, projected and filmed again. “Super-8 projection has an anxious, hypnotic effect that we thought served Here We Go Magic’s song well. We wanted something simple and transcendent,” Snejina explains. “Look closely and you’ll enjoy beautiful patterns in the seemingly random imagery,” notes Peking co-founder, Greg Mitnick.”
