in a vain google attempt to find myself on the web, I was amazed that both versions of my name take google to a page to do with me. I'm quite chuffed about that. I realise now that I've progressed so far that the pages are now really requiring an update.

my first film reveiw - in about 100 words.
Survive Style 5+ (2004)
Having survived my boredom during the last 20 minutes, it did eventually end with something of a reassuring closure. Gen Sekiguchi’s 2004 production of Survive Style 5+ does have a familiar feel to a Tarentino from 1994 and a Ritchie of 1998. If you like films that hand everything on a plate to you, you’ll hate this one. Interesting debates evolve around use of colour and metaphor, and is it perception or perspective. For me, the film sets out several questions, that are more important than is this Sekiguchi’s first feature film. For one, did he make it with a western market in mind?

last day of October 2007
it is the last day of 2007.
WRONG.
It is th e - last day of October 2007.
RIGHT.
Do we need to be told about when we are right and when we are wrong. maybe we know. Maybe we know before the comment is made. Maybe we don't need to hear the comment. Why does a person jump so quickly on what another person has said. Is it judgement. Is it dislike. Is it fear. Is it hit before you get hit.
If in the real world, comments are made in real time and it's all too fierce, why is it in the e - world where step time applies, that so few make a comment, engage, commit to an opinion. What is it, that is "in the way" of making a post ?

post shower period
after asparagus and egg. Beans coffee and tomatoe.
A shower.
Funny how it's a place for thought and cleansing. Thought, if a group of Fine Art students were in an air conditioned room in which the temperature became very warm. Would any of them question why it was so warm and ask for the temperature of the air conditioning to be turned down.
If I were to meet Richard Branson, I would attempt to ask him his thought or opinion about whether he sees a time where commercial business invests and supports projects that produce experience and not profit.

at the end of the week
the sun is still in the sky, happiness and tired contemplation.
Don't want another week like that again. Too unsettling, too depresssional.
Maybe accepting, maybe still working on accepting. When does the personal work finish and the public really rev up.
Questions them all.
Answers to be discovered. How, we will see.

am I calm
I've spoken to Sue.
feeling better.
We spoke about what happened on Monday. Maybe the process through which the group was taken was not as it should have been.
It has helped to talk to some one that is not directly connected with it.
There are afew new marks on the wall. Documentation to follow.

the day after the rep situation was revealed
after lunch. reactor filling the space to my right.
Working through-still, the aftermath of the weekend and the Monday that was quite unsettling. Those concerned know what happened. It has left me in a fragile mental state. Once again the depressive tendancy has been fuelled by my reactions to actions of others.
I still find it dissappointing. I still find in annoying.
What ?
The lack of consideration and thought and respect for human beings for other human beings. How much mental pain need I go through until someone starts to realise what I'm trying to say.
I'm trying to say, "if you decide something that affects someone, tell them before everyone else finds out. It f****** hurts when you find out at the same time as eveyone else. Why does it hurt. It hurts, as it is like hearing a nasty remark about you when you are in the room. The person saying the remark has no positive consideration about the person about whom the remark is said.
Just put yourself in that situation in your own mind.
Do you like how that feels ?
