Number Rhymes

One is straight and high
as a lamppost with light.
Two is a red flamingo
the first even number: bingo!
Three like lettuce leaves
that say yum-yum, please.
Four with a bent leg
and the other like a peg.
Five is a rocking chair
with an awning in the air.
Six is a listening ear
to everything that is near.
Seven is an umbrella that is closed
with the handle that is posed.
Eight is an endless road
that comes and goes and is broad.
Nine is a fan with blades
that look like spades.
Zero is an oval ring
and inside is the begining.
.........................................
Now we start playing with two figures
in order, each with everyone, one by one.
Then comes the turn of the three figures in combination
and this is a complicated operation.
This magical game  never ends
as long as you can imagine: to infinity.

you have illuminated shapes out.




Let's give color to  the festivities
giving wings to creativity

or lined with transparencies.

You can cut funny shapes
with silhouettes of various measures,
and hanging from mobile structures
adorned houses remain.

Sense the Silence

"In modern society we are in darkness

 of what's happening around us

 by different distractions.

 Many of us are unaware

 of the nature's phenomena 

 taking place right in front of our eyes.

 Just stop for a moment ...

Sense the Silence - Finnish Lapland from Riku Karjalainen on Vimeo.

 ...and feel your innermost

 in harmony with the nature.

 Open your eyes and sense the Silence."

Slow down

Watching sparks in the dark
is how to find light in the life.
The best way could be a slow flow
and intuit the changes as challenges.

Leo's Song

Leo's Song from Impactist on Vimeo.

Lyrics:

I started playing this song.
But did not know where it would lead.
I just kept playing, and playing.
A young pyramid heard my song
and told friends of it discovery.
They asked if the sound's creator could be found.
The pyramid said if would try.
And so its journey began
though the distance was great.
The pyramid was very fast.
The pyramid found the earth.
Searched the forests
and looked outside supermarkets.
It even went door to door, to door.
The pyramid was discouraged
but refused to give up.
I continue to play
unaware of the pyramid's search.
The pyramid followed the sound to my window
where I invited in inside
so it could rest its travels.
Time went by and we became friends.
We sampled some minidiscs
purchased a house
and collected records.
And trew a party.
The pyramid was very responsible
and would now the lawn every week.
The pyramid even did the grocery shopping
though the pyramid enjoyed my company.
It began to miss home
when suddenly
it was contacted by its home planet
because was building with the cubes.
The pyrmaid built a ship for me
so we could both travel to its home.
We travelled as fast as we could
to prevent the terrible disaster.
I had never been so far from home.
During the trip I filled two notebook
with notes ans sketches.
We arrived and met with the High Council
but they were unwilling to listen to reason.
Once again, the young would lead the old,
and fight common fear with common sense.
The young pyramid lined up
in support of the cubes.
The young cubes did the same.
To teach the elders, the young shapes continued.
Together, the youths had taught peace.
And now rejoiced
while I played this song.
I continued to recording experiences
with paper and pen
and released them to either
hoping they would be found.

Space-Time

"The space-time is an all-encompassing container,

 where everything is next to each other in a holistic sense. 

There is a strange feeling of frozen time.

 Past, present and future are indistinguishable.

 A series of multidisciplinary correspondences

 are converging into a beautiful network
 of pure and basic information

 beyond geographical, political and linguistic borders.

 The importance of the less intuitive aspects of our reality:

 quantum gravity, teleportation, entanglement, augmented reality, 

time travel, cosmology and biodiversity.

 The result of an unusual correlation between 

theoretical physics, informatics and contemporary art."

Statement from Marco Bagni LostConversation on Vimeo.

Progress allows us to live a magical moment
 with likely difficult to believe.
But it is a time of contrasts because
progress coexists with extreme poverty.
So reconcile both extremes
 is the challenge of humanity.

You can feel  amazement and admiration

Lyrics:
Information about the letter I
is imminent
I ( I ) is incredible
I like using I

and I ( I ) is indispensable
I like using I

When I'm in an igloo eating ice cream
I like using I

When I'm investigating insects on an island
I like using I

When I talk about myself I use I
When you talk about yourself, you use I

I, I, I, I,

I have invented an invisible iguana
The itsy-bitsy inchworm has inflated the inner-tube

When I talk about myself I use I
When you talk about yourself, you use I

I is impressive

Four Seasons

"Winter, spring, summer, fall...

 This clever song will teach them all !"

Time: "Four Seasons," The Seasons of the Year by StoryBots from StoryBots on Vimeo.


Lyrics:

Cold weather's kind of winter's thing
In spring, the plants get back their bling
By summer they're in full-swing
But in fall, their leaves go tumbling
Down, down, down to the bottom
Oh, that reminds me
Some folks call fall 'autumn', well anyway
Winter, spring
Summer, fall
One year, four seasons in all
Winter, spring
Four seasons you can count them all
Winter, spring
Summer, fall
One year, four seasons in all
Winter, spring
Summer, fall
And now you know them once and for all

Balance: listen your body and buddies

Listening with your five senses your body
and  feeling their contracted or sore  points,
pulling them with gentle movements,
armònic dance or stretchings, it's a nice way.

Sometimes it's difficult memorize
preset repetitive exercises.
There are specialists who can guide you
the best way each time or situation.

However, if you learn listening your body
then your instinct can guide you step by step.
