JANUARY 1, 2015 Last year on January 1, I was very emotional when I edited this video. Dont remember why, but I remember that I partially recreated a feeling that I get when I go on my solitary shoots without a goal where I pretty much record anything that catches my eye, not caring what it is for. When I do that I feel plugged into the mystery of all being and some kind of wholeness swallows me gently. I especially developed fondness of plants and birds (those demoted descendants of dinosaurs). Every single thing or being around me starts glowing, not in a literal sense, you dont see it, but you kind of know it does. And that is when I realize that we are all one and that I have no more importance than that leaf of grass waving in the wind or a rat flattened on asphalt by a truck. It is so liberating to let your ego go. You feel happy and peaceful, you become drunk or rather high from it, like you just woke up in a hospital after they gave you morphine to ease your pain from a kidney stone (you are less sprightly, but more dazed). First time it happened to me was in Colonel Sam Smith Park, at the South end of Kipling Avenue and South from Humber College (Etobicoke, Toronto). It kept repeating. I am an atheist and still am, but for the luck of better word I can say that idea of God settles in me and makes me think of poet Rilke and I end up inventing some semi-philosophical definitions that feel like Chinese Zen. Here is one of them. “The heart of eternity is in the passing moment.” Is it really mine? Somebody must have said something like that. Anyway, some shots in this video are from those trips. I apologize for being late with ANNOYING (The Musdocal) trailer. I am working on it and love it so far. HAPPY NEW YEAR, MY FRIENDS! https://youtube/watch?v=fPPeRiEu_Zk
