- Do you share my madness ?
The following chapters are for the madmen who made our world go round.

Cabinet des Dr. Caligari., Das
Directed by Robert Wiene (1920)

John Cage (1912-1992) and Edgard Varese (1883-1965)
John Cage - Prepared Piano
John Cage (1912-1992), was the composer who put the "prepared piano" concept on the world map and who is often (though inaccurately) credited with inventing the instrument. His preparations are typically nuts, bolts and pieces of rubber to be lodged between and entwined around the strings. Some preparations make duller, more percussive sounds than usual, while others create sonorous bell-like tones. Additionally, the individual parts of a preparation like a nut loosely screwed onto a bolt will vibrate themselves, adding their own unique sound. By placing the preparation between two of the strings on a note which has three strings assigned to it, it is possible to change the timbre of that note by depressing the soft pedal on the piano.

“If Death Had Wings”
If I saw death, and death had wings
I know where I would go—
Someplace between Heaven and Hell,--
In the form of an eternal soul:
Where Peace and hunger was no more—;
If only death had wings
That is where I’d go—!
Yes, that is where I’d go!
If only dearth had wings!
Wins, wings, wings—
I’d put them on my soul.
=====================================
“Gray Oblivion”
In the sunlight
Hope thrives best—
In the fog, it
Does not at all—.
Self-interest and
Self- preservation
Is stronger than hope,
And once it takes root,
Hope opens its jaws.
Thus, one can say,
Hope and Reality
Thrives on nothing,
And nothing blossoms
In the jaws of death.

Spring is in the air and all the birds are building their nest. This little piggie made his nest of stone. Nothing can compare to the nest built by Edward Leedskalnin (died 1951). The largest stone weighs 30 tons.

Kathy Ostman-Magnusen (Primal One)
My name is "Kathy" and I am an artist.
I paint and sculpt women primarily; in their daily lives, in lives they might be afraid of, and in lives they wish they had.
My goal has always remained the same; to hear them breathing and to know the passion I feel in my soul is met by theirs.
It is not possible to feel apathetic while standing next to passion.

What is an approriate boundry.
.
While strolling on the Groenewold-Moyal Plane a
strange thought came to me. Where does time go
when you are oblivious. Is it 1968 or 2008?
Can't seem to see the approriate boundries we
talked about in therapy.

Bert Jansch
Bert Jansch was born at Stobhill Hospital, Glasgow in 1943, but brought up in Edinburgh, where he attended Pennywell Primary School and Ainsley Park Secondary School. As a teenager, he acquired a guitar. Jansch's music, and particularly his acoustic guitar playing, have influenced a range of well-known musicians.
Jimmy Page not only recorded a version of Jansch's "Blackwaterside" but cites him as an influence. He is quoted as saying "At one point, I was absolutely obsessed with Bert Jansch."
Neil Young is quoted as saying, "As much of a great guitar player as Jimi [Hendrix] was, Bert Jansch is the same thing for acoustic guitar...and my favourite."
Donovan wrote two songs dedicated to Jansch
Tsuneo Imahori is known to have been heavily influenced by Jansch.
