Existing between memory and Imagination.

Running coach, theorist of the body and ecozoic futurist, friend to all, currently at U of Toronto.

Mostly tooting about life in transpocalyptic times. Occassional poetry. Things I find funny.

Not a confident user of emojis. Or the internet.

No Friends In Toronto, by Sun Sun

This article on the dynamics of #development including #metamorphosis is fascinating. We know a lot more than when I studied #embryology as a sophomore. "many cells—perhaps almost half, including
other nerve cells and gut cells—
seemed to hang around but switched
their repertoire of active genes, taking on
different roles in the adult. “What a cell
is capable of, is more flexible than
we previously appreciated,” “It seems that there are different
cell types at different developmental
stages,”
On the surface, this looks like a pleasant enough sketch of women holding hands.
But I invite you to contemplate it this way: The forearm reaching in from the frame is yours. It is grasping your mother's hand. She in turn is holding her mother's hand who is holding her mother's hand, and so on, revealing the visceral and intimate connection of each of us to our forebears, generation upon generation, stretching back to the very horizon of time.
Enjoy.

Wait, did Marshall McLuhan say "The medium is the message" or "The medium is the MASSAGE"?

“Living beings defy neat definition… We abide in a symbiotic world.”

The Fun Boy 3 release their debut album.

I heard “Lunatics…” on the radio and knew Terry Hall from The Specials, so I had to get this album. Then I see it has some tracks with Bananarama, who had a current hit “Shy Boy”.! It was an exciting time. I picked it up during the summer of 1983. This was maybe the 3rd album I ever bought with my own money.

A minimalist sound with tribal drums kicking things off 👇

Triples is best.

This Webb image features a special galaxy that appears 3 times. Why? There's a galaxy cluster here whose mass and gravity are so great that time and space around it gets warped. This magnifies, multiplies, and distorts galaxies behind it: https://esawebb.org/images/potm2302a/

Maybe instead of a "Big Bang", it was a "Big Bounce"? 🤔

Scientists used new observations from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope to find a half dozen galaxies from not long after the Big Bang. The distant masses of stars are so gigantic it could force a rethink about the very origins of galaxies.

I’m old. Old enough to remember the 1980s and 1990s and early 2000s, when mainstream media largely ignored trans people.
