#after

Spät am Abend: Extrarunden. Liegengebliebenes, Unfertiges. Neue Systeme, alte Herausforderungen. Und andersherum. Längst herrscht wieder Stille in der gewohnten Nachbarschaft. Man übt Klarinette hinter den Höfen, irgendwo klappern kurz Teller, bevor eine ruppige Stimme hörbar wird und sich Fenster schließen. Ein Bus fährt aus der Haltestelle, lässt eine Gruppe junger Menschen mit riesigen Rucksäcken zurück, die eine Weile ratlos auf Straße, Kreuzung und ihre blass scheinenden Displays starren und dann stadtwärts außer Sichtweite verschwinden. Klare Weite über den Dächern, einzelne Sterne im endlosen Schwarz. Und es wird spürbar kalt. (Have a calm night wherever you are.)

9pm. Still halfway between things, just in a different way. Eager to sort out at least some aspects the hours left behind, at the same time searching for focus and inspiration, wondering whether the both of them growing thin is more due to the still-present heat or an effect of gradually getting older. Or maybe both. Not too pleased with oneself, as a continuing state of consciousness.

Closing in on 11pm. Letting todays music fade, closing these open files. Mentally collecting half-written sheets, careful to not wipe the ideas that still feel like needing to dry before being somewhat permanent. A day of juggling many different interwoven and partially conflicting tasks, a day of feeling ones own line of separation from the rest of the world in an intense heat, a day of deviating too deep into weird metaphors. Unsure whether or not to be curious which dreams to arise from that. (Have a night of soft colours everyone, no matter where you are...)

Closing in on 10pm. Inventory of unmaintained assets. Striving to understand certain derailings of things that used to work well just weeks ago. A change in behaviour without a change in instructions always causes an uncanny feel. (Trying to consult the machine, but facts don't make sense, or the algorithm is tired. Both options seem valid.)

Zu warm, eigentlich, aber trotzdem schafft es neuer Schnee irgendwie, scheinbar gewichtslos durch den späten Himmel zu tanzen, Wellen mit dem Wind zu schlagen zwischen den Autos knapp über der Straße, liegenzubleiben auf den letzten Herbstblättern struppiger Büsche. Gegenüber tragen die Studenten Kisten mit Bier und Glühwein in den weit offenen Hauseingang und diskutieren Themen, die Uneingeweihten vollständig und dauerhaft verschlossen bleiben. Im Erdgeschoss stehen Lichtbilder aus der alten Heimat hinter trübem Glas. Immer noch sind Geist und Seele noch nicht richtig im Advent angekommen.

9pm and still further. Balancing between what needs to be, what should be, and what's possible trying to achieve both and still have room in that night for something that may be instead of having to be. One machine's singing, the others just keep quiet as if knowing they'd better stay out of the way. Stories of bits and pieces as the page of this day rapidly fills.

Archaeological networking: The tendency and behaviour of trying to look up and browse the recent doings of random names washed back to the focus of attention in trivial tasks, like cleaning up mailing list folders or removing fake-addressed spam messages. Hardly leads anywhere but usually ends up learning about the distance that has quietly sneaked into once-active communities with the years. (Also: Nothing seems to separate people as effectively as ideals and values growing into different directions...)

#AnthonyPeake - Cheating the Ferryman: The #Revolutionary #Science of Life After Death - Part 1

Host sounds like he's in a closet. Guest pushes his books. Interesting though.

#Quote I recently visited Anthony Peake at his home to talk about his latest book 'Cheating the Ferryman: The Revolutionary Science of #Life #After #Death'. Today sees the release of session one with session two to follow in the near future.

Is there life after death? This age-old question has plagued humankind from the moment we became self-aware, but do we now have enough evidence to answer it? In this mind-expanding book, Peake reveals an extraordinary model of life after death - one that brings together ideas from ancient philosophy, neuroscience, quantum physics and consciousness studies, and manages to explain a number of seemingly mysterious experiences such as precognition, déjà vu, #synchronicity, #NDE near-death experiences, and out-of-body experiences.
