All is Well...

Happy Thanksgiving to all. I hope everything is going well and that everyone is in the grateful spirit. We are here in Spokane. Take Care.

...and to you.

These past couple of days have been quite relaxing. I recently opened a much larger sketchbook and have largely been working on the production of a larger body of larger work. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do.

Starshining Bright above Me...

After a week long sensual massage of my mind, body and soul I am back at my sisters house, restructuring my aura. For this I am using a schnauser, some UFC and an 11x17 sketchbook. This piece was created during an art party at The Heartwood Institute where Exos Design was doing some sustainable consultancy. The work is not yet done and I have come to believe that it shall never be. Thats why I call it my dream job.

Working It.

So here is a first sample of the work that I am working on. All I can really say is that this is hardly working and I am working reallly hard.

In The Beginining...

God hired Exos to provide consultancy on his systems design in order to gather a full comprehension of the environment and resources that she was working with and how he may best actualize its visions.

ATTENTION!!! This is a call for Addresses of the individuals who visit this site. I am on the road for a bit and should like to try a few new things. Mail could just be the next best thing. Just post it or email it to Kearsleydesign@gmail.com. Danke.

The New Coolesthing

So here it is. The new coolesthing to hit my life since the End of Education. Exos Design Inc. has incorporated me into their next Sustainable Site and Systems Design Process. For any one in the know, this is why I did not go to Spain. This may be my first step into a long and healthy effort to redesign all of western culture. If thats too large, perhaps just a significant portion of the PNW, which will subsequently secede from the union and develop into the new real western world where responsible intelligent individuals watch eachothers back during our most dynamic of futures.

The whole floating about thing was fun for a week but now I have a purpose, a job and something to look forward to over the next short while. I will continue to do the blogging thing as best as I can and thanks again for the comments.

Reality

So after a fantastic presentation we are begining to Converge. I am anxious to meet these folks and hear their experiences, ideas and solutions for the future. I will take notes for anyone who wishes...

It all feels a little surreal...

Real eyes realise.

So I am on the road. First stop is Seattle to attend a presentation by David Suzuki and a follow up creative session with Sustainable Cascadia. The bus south was 40 minutes late... not such a bad deal considering I sat next to David Suzuki on the ride down. He and I sustainably lowered our carbon footprints together though we didn't talk much. Needless to say I was a little excited as this was my first real encounter with such a meritorious intellectual celebrity. This excitement was expressed in a picture I conjured up during the 1:45 minutes we spent together and was appparently quite obvious as his only real comment was... "Its Pretty Phallic." I'll try harder... or maybe less hard nextime..

YaYo

I have just completed another smaller notebook. 200pgs of notes on everything from Meterology to Noam Chomsky. After the battle I flipped through the mess in search of heroes. This is one of a few. They all represent sketches for much larger more refined images, I just haven't gotten that far yet.

Free Bird

It is a strange thing... to say over and over again, to your self and to others, the things that you want the most... because as you accquire all of those things, you lose that topic for conversation.

At this point I have streamlined my entire existence into the confines of an imaginary box of about 4x4x6. I have simultaneously loosened my ties to any particular institution and now appear to be floating about, awaiting the next most appealling invitation. Until it comes I will try to walk softly.

Song Birdsinging

So it has been a while since my last update. Sorry for the wait & thanks for the support/comments.

The most recent news is that I have been invited to Exos Design Inc. as an Art Intern to work on Sustainable Systems Design and Site Development. The company is quite small (exosdesign.com) and based on Orcas Island at the Bullocks Permaculture Homestead. Over the winter I will work on and off of the island doing some landscape design and such. Come spring time I will start the traditional Bullocks internship and live/work on the island for an entire growing season (hopefully). After that its pretty much up in the air. Perhaps something like developing a non-profit Urban Environmental Rehabilitation Design Corps and working with the middle class intellectuals searching for a more meaningful existence. Let me know if you are interested.

Also, Prints of some of this work will be mounted and sold on Saturday at the Farmers Market in Bellingham. I will be near La Fiamma Pizza so stop by and say hi. Hope to see you.
