Skis Cutting Through Powder
After a day at the computer, ink on the page as a more natural pathway: systems within systems, writing like a dance, and letters sliding across the page like skis cutting through powder.

Yes. Hello. This is nice. I've been on the computer a lot today and welcome ink on page as a more natural pathway to illumine the the thought works of mindstuffs. Just this organic feeling of movement coming from within to align and match the external movement. How rich the system to classify and understand probability within options and how human to create a system and a system within a system. And systems on top of those systems. Will these interactions leave patterns as traces to the behaviors and inter-dependencies among the various components and entities. And without thinking writing can be much like a dance an expression of forming beautiful words of unknown origin and impotent meaning possibly meaningless for what is meaning really. Focus on breath and loose hand and body ensures the result is not too clouded by the guided hand of thought and a more direct link to the unknown or reflexes which are somehow capable of forming meaning through grammar through words and sentences strung together with an occasional symbol. Sliding across the page like skis cutting through powder and the gravity of the situation pulling skier downward toward ground level and off of whichever mountain happens to be the playground du jour. Ensuring each letter as part of writing cursive while also have some awareness of what might be hanging into a stalagmite or like that b's are not mistaken for t's and u' and n's can stand on their own not leaning on context to import the canonical archetype of symbolic letter is meant. And in cursive there is an element of beauty in the writing for no other will write as you do in that moment and trying to get one's writing to be consistent I imagine is a challenge for many and not just me.
And being open to new pathways for expression and beauty so it is possible to form lines with steady steady and shapely cursive lettering. Speed will come as does the signature of the artist
