5 Shocking facts that will change your life forever

Hello friends,

We all want meaning, something tangible to hang our experiences on, shocking revelations that will free us from our personal prisons, liberate us from our burdening questions and deliver us to some place  new, wiser and less prisony. You have come here for facts, shocking ones that will change your life forever... so here they are...

1. Truth is a lie

Anything you think is true, isn't. It just isn't true, you think it's true, but in reality all truth is merely a guess, filtered through a device, in this case, you. Human beings are tools to experience existence, and truth is relative to the tool experiencing it.

2. Nothing is real

That's right, none of it, not a single thing is real. Everything is the same, it's all energy spinning around, jiggling about, bumping into each other and creating further energy to join the dance. Our reality is motion that never stops moving. Reality is just another human truth/lie

3. You are usually right

Even when you are horribly wrong, you are usually right. You are always both wrong and right, there is no separation, both of these are just human truth/lies. Every decision we make is the right one, the outcome might not be favourable, but it will always be the way the energy intended to jiggle.

4. Pay attention more

This energy dance gives out lots of clues, like a giant complex puzzle waiting to be solved. Pay close attention, especially in the moments that you usually switch off, that's when the magic happens, when you aren't paying attention.

5. Don't pay attention to me

What do I know? Nothing, well, nothing really worth knowing. I'm just an explorer on this planet spinning around the sun, like you. Every second is filled with so much energy jiggling, and I can only observe a tiny fraction of it in one tiny section of this massive planet in this massive galaxy, what real knowledge could I ever amass from this minuscule vantage point? Nothing, that's what.

A sink, not an eye...
peace and infinite love

Still hibernating

Hello friends,

Quick message from hibernation, just to let you know that I am indeed still alive, just very very sleepy. I find winter to be the best time for quiet introspection, taking the time to check in with myself and make sure everything is working properly and all set for some adventures later in the year when it's warmer and less ice rainy.

I want to shift my creative focus somewhat this year, still making music but leaning more towards film making. It's been a long time since 'Otherwise' got painstakingly pulled into existence, and it turned out pretty good. It's time for further exploration of the form.

I want to one up myself this year, make better animated video's, and start to make some proper live action stuff too. Abi and I want a proper camera, a big fat juicy HD recording lovely film style camera to make big epic awesome film things. Also we want to start mixing the art forms together, it's all in it's early stages at the moment, it's all pre production behind the scenes style stuff right now, since we don't have the camera yet, but soon, soon my friends, there will be something new.

Until then though, it's still hibernation station, writing, preparing etc.

Also also, I have been working with Mr Donny Stax to remaster and restore the classic tracks we did together a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. How Bout That Records will re-release the 3 albums 'Fine', 'Free Music (Donate Now)' and 'Self Aware' with bonus tracks and goodies etc later this year. It's gonna be a big year (technically it will be the same size year as every other year that has gone before, but metaphorically it's going to be a BIG one).
Back in your hole birdy

So don't watch this space at the moment, nothing much is happening here, but in a few months it will be back up and kicking out the new videos and songs and who knows what (mainly the first two, it's hard to say much about the 'knows what' right now).

Peace and infinite love to you
