If the title doesn’t hook you, nothing will.

Often, my perpetual idea appetite for ideas, (or just the habit of thinking online) will lead me to a brilliant oasis. Or at least a nice series of nodes. Regardless, here is some fodder for fellow active seekers (emphasis mine):

…There is a soul, a passion, inside of the economic machine. Our most personal desires and schemes sometimes scare us with their strangeness, with their lunacy. But some dare make them public—just as the first stone-chipper, the first stone-wall builder, the first brick-maker, and the first brick-city-planner did. (more…)

This is the start of my idea doodle. I am brainstorming about the various kinds of ideas, and the translation of them between humans, and from their memetic state into something concrete. I am experimenting with flow and pattern in this rough copy, and plan on developing it further into a fresh drawing or painting.

Disco baby, your minds a whirl
Roll now, set you back in motion
to where I was, all began
and begins
I beg you now, dear darling
“Who the hell are you anyways?” My face?
You chose your loopiest words and formed a set.
“Swirl-eyed girl , fingers spinning round her hair”
well, dare be damned
And I’ll be sure to greet you at the door
mark the place where your spirit spilled
mine was the first, and the last, image to cross your mind
but, oh god, it sliced my head up pretty good too
films are snatching my bits and cords
they want to string my silly sights
red blue lights, big green lashes
but dear one, you know me better
just as I do
and this one is only for you.
(For me.)

When all is read and run, may you pull on the ink and return the favor.
I won’t remember this, so you’ll have to improvise.
