TIMES, TIME, AND HALF A TIME. A HISTORY OF THE NEW MILLENNIUM.

Comments on a cultural reality between past and future.

This blog describes Metatime in the Posthuman experience, drawn from Sir Isaac Newton's secret work on the future end of times, a tract in which he described Histories of Things to Come. His hidden papers on the occult were auctioned to two private buyers in 1936 at Sotheby's, but were not available for public research until the 1990s.

A Lockdown Poem

Recent discussions on this blog's Discord group have focused on alchemical colour symbolism used in relation to artificial intelligence and the pandemic. For example, at the start of a great transformation necessary to produce a magnum opus, black must be pitted against white. Does this sound familiar?

I have a new poem about the lockdown which explores alchemical colours, just published on Vocal Media. It is an ode to unpacking all my mum's artworks.

  1. Now that I see it in full, your photograph is even more amazing. The subtle organic alchemy inherent in your mum's painting somehow transmuted all the surrounding objects - including the living flowers - into a quasi-dimensional construct in which the painting is the most real, tangible, vital entity. Make no mistake, Mum was a wizard.

    1. Thank you Dia! Yes, she was. She had a series called 'Magic Squares' where it looks like the squares are floating out of the painting at you. Other paintings looked like you were peering into a square peephole into a different world. It was all done with colour. I'll send you photos.
