Mayan New Year’s Eve
…waiting for the apocalypsewhile we got away with merely entering a new count cycle
it looks like our dark twin, the Alternate Earth that orbits unseen half a year away, behind the sun may well be toast!

Twin Piques...
I'm looking forward to spending some of the upcoming downtime exploring a couple of sites that have piqued my interest recently - both are 'idea orphanages' of sorts, a concept that resonates for me.and
ooops, sorry, I keep forgetting this is an image thread
but surely, imagination trumps pixelation?
;- )I'll get my photon net out tomorrow.

On tally...
You can tell from the counts....
If it had come to pass that our number was up, this Live World Population Clock site would've been the one to watch...
just to see that "Deaths Today" counter leap up 7,086,795,514 (give or take a few thousand)!
Oh, hang on... -

beet red heart....
Tom Scully was a good friend...
...me too, from South Intermediate and sporadically thru High School and beyond - he went off to St Bedes (I think that's where he met Bill) and then he ended up at Cashmere, we met up and camped together on the hill at the the first Ngaruawahia Music festival, Tom slid down during the night... I'd run into Tom at the Gresham, and gigs, often with Bill...
Every time I drive past Studholme Street I think of him and his family...Noahpocollapse... the great arc
Mayan New Year’s Eve and
I’m waiting for the apocalypse
...because it’s fatedThe great cycles turn, baktun the future
one spiritual/symbolic age ends
another begins...Some astrologers say the Age of Aquarius actually begins in 2012. That’s because they believe the star Regulus in the constellation Leo the Lion marked the ancient border between the constellations Leo and Cancer. This star moves to within 30o of the September equinox point in 2012, meaning that Regulus leaves the sign Leo to enter the sign Virgo this year. Presuming equal-sized constellations in antiguity, that places the border of the constellations Pisces and Aquarius at 150o west of Regulus, or at the March equinox point. By this reckoning, the Age of Aquarius starts in 2012. {source}
Popol reign...
The cyclic nature of it all, makes me wonder about the connections ,, coincidences and holographic distribution of concepts at all levels (and that's just before breakfast!!) - the Mayan trickster ball game heroes drove their mythology, the Hero Twins must battle Seven Macaw to save mankind.
Do we know where glider pilot Richie McCaw (7) is at the moment?
Is he flying to the breakdown of civilisation, even as I type?Hey maybe it’s a genre.
The Mayans dallied with numbers
and tallied with string ( Quipu )
Give 'em enough trope...
and this Budd's for you ambience chasers, too... -
