Back Outdoors (!)

Eastern side of Drink Lake in the background, and doggy bowl with frozen water in the foreground. The cold is yielding to warmth finally, however. Spring has sprung!

Drink Lake looking east, with Pencilinsula in the center, former home of the Quadrobeavs. In the Collagesity Temple, Pencilinsula *might* be represented by the alcove containing Carrcassonnee, chief town deity. She does not have a sticky out rock, however, but a pet: Spider (dog). In 12 Oz Mouse, Spider screams when Roostre asks if he’s playing Hayes. To remind, Rutherford “Booger” Hayes is the first president of the United States to never be the president of the United States.

Pencilinsula from the opposite shore, rock pointed straight toward us. The rock has also been referred to as The Point of The Wall. If Carrcassonnee = Pencilinsula, then this position would stand for The Bobs of Collagesity Temple. Interesting.

Still moving along the south side of the lake in a westward direction, I soon encountered, judging by the smell, what I’m pretty sure is a skunk hole, as seen through the fence surrounding Drink Lake. I will obviously be avoiding this opening in the future.

And this is nearby *Straw* Hole, like a straw inserted in a drink. You can even seen Drink Lake (Aqua) within. This seems to connect to the insane machinations of Kerchal countering those of calm Carrcassonnee. Insanoflex… defeated by Drink in Carrcass-0. “Keep playing your dumb ass song.” And this has something to do with a more internal battle between Shake and Jesus for control of this alcove inside the Collagesity Temple. Does Jesus respect or accept the TILE religion? A question to be asking.

Hole is accompanied by Hill… well, a rock. This is the site of some kind of future TILE Temple fer sure.

Sort of pathway into this central area containing the hole.

Eastside, Straw Hole — which is apparently also the name of the community surrounding the hole. Appropriate. (note: Hucka Doobie states this is incorrect, and that he will give out an official name in due time) There’s another rock.

You have to cross this tangle of limbs to reach Straw Hole from the east.

What next? 02

Collagesity isn’t perfect, but it’s as perfect right now as I want to make it, perhaps. Next would be storytelling, usually, but a shift back into collage making might be a path instead. This weekend I may have a chance to return to Mythopolis for more picture taking. March on Sunday! My traditional spring hiking season is coming up. Daylight savings time begins the week after that. It’s a good time of the year, if only I can get past this perhaps one last really cold week here in Blue Mountain. Can I learn to love Blue Mtn. again and its hiking seasons?

I’ve advertised Collagesity on one popular SL art group and already received some encouragement. Am attempting to branch out in RL and contact other collagists and study their works. I hope to have an influence myself but I’m not sure that’s going to happen. As I was writing in an email today, maybe my unique perspective is on the heavy analysis side. I treat collages like dreams to be interpreted, or, more exactly, collage *series*, because they don’t exist in isolation any more for me. They almost always come in series of 10 at the least, like the latest Embarras series (10 and *maybe* counting… maybe).

I’d love also to go back to Middletown soon, and I’m sure that will happen. I feel like an art event at Dead Center Hill could come about in March. But I must think mostly of Blue Mtn. in March-May. Will Whitehead Crossing in Frank Park act as the focus this go around? Sharieland over in Herman Park? So many options still. One place I definitely want to go back and take pictures of is TILE Creek below Drink Lake dam., which I explored about a week and a 1/2 ago some.

It’s relieving to think that I probably won’t be giving up my Second Life land anytime soon to focus on the outdoors. I can have both (!). I still have over 260 prims to play around with in Minoa at last count. I still have wriggle room for experimenting.

Drink Lake, Herman Park (the “I”)

Below its dam: a place in the rhododendron (Ditchlandia?).

—–

“Yes I would like to talk about the creatures that stalk the land below the dam. You have a ditch running across the whole place…”

bb:

… pictured above.

Hucka D.:

Yeah. Suppose. Can’t see.

bb:

It is here you’ll… sorry… you go…

Hucka D.:

It is here *you’ll* make a camp. Perhaps not this spring but later. It’s perfect. The lake is alive.

bb:

Herman Park makes a comeback.

Hucka D.:

Yes. (pause)

bb:

What of the mystery hole?

Hucka D.:

Aliens made it. To get you interested in their lake and their park again. Your attention was floundering. That was their exact words.

bb:

Can my Second Life property at the Rubi Woods co-exist with my renewed interest in Herman Park, if that comes about?

Hucka D.:

It will come about. And, yes, to the question. Both can exist together, even feed off each other. Have you created an Mmmmmm in Second Life yet?

bb:

Not quite yet. Maybe tomorrow.

Hucka D.:

Make it early if so.

bb:

So we have the Mmmmmm’s crashing into their First Tree in the First Goodmobile, then establishing themselves and their civilization first around this tree, then spreading out across all of Great Meadow and even Good Meadow to the west, at least the red version of these toy avatars — around Baffle Bush and Big Log and Second Tree. Then King Bill establishes his small kingdom even further ~~north~~ west, on the edge of Good Meadow.

Hucka D.:

Good Meadow became Great Meadow at that point. Or visa versa.

bb:

And he[ King Bill] had his martin bug keeping him company.

Hucka D.:

The bug beats the bird[ after all].

bb:

He was *orange*, this King Bill. He was sought after for intense wisdom. The other Mmmmmm’s were green and red mainly.

Hucka D.:

Mainly. (pause)

bb:

But then they eventually migrated, gradually, into Hermania and the rhododenron.

Hucka D.:

A great magnet that was indeed. Great Magnet. That’s their phrase for it.

bb:

Because it had so many entertainment and cultural possibilities. And I suppose the council at Meeting Rock took place around this time — in the transition between meadow dwelling and rhododendron dwelling…

Hucka D.:

There had to be a council because there were so many diverse cultures in the area. The Mmmmmm’s, the Mossmen, the Marbles. The big 3 M’s. Then the sentient beavers and their swearing ways. But others you haven’t studied yet. The ones that worship the ditch, and the hole. The lake is alive. Drink Lake.

—–

The Mmmmmm’s wanted to stay in the meadow so they would be seen by rescue planes. But part of them split and wished to live in the rhododendron… safer. A small city (Hermania) was established around TILE Falls and Tip Drip. TILE and Tyle became confused. Meeting Rock was activated. 4n1 or Foreign One or 4orrin1. Hole Tree resonated with the hole at the other end of Drink Lake, Hucka D. Hucka?

More Crossroads

http://www.mrjumbo.com/contents/delta99/3delta/clarksdale.html

In the Falmouth collage “2989”, set in Whitehead Crossing, the conjoined green man and the gray man face in different directions very similar to the 49/61 signs to their right. Green=61, then, and Gray=49. Together in this way, they represent the sign itself, and thus 2989 itself.

I just found a red umbrella in one of my freebie Second Life purchases last night, and copied it to my inventory. Interesting to see if anything develops from that resonance.

Gray and Green Man, Pooh and his umbrella and honey pot, have reappeared in Embarras 04/05, the newest tetraptych and equaling my largest work. Examples of another tetraptych are found in both the Gilatona-Lis (last work) and Falmouth (middle work) series. Here it comes very early in a series, if this progresses onward as those other two from previous winters did.

Page about “lego philosohpy”, a concept I’d like to explore more. Legos are relatable to the Second Life prims that are used to construct objects in that particular world. Prim creation has been partially usurped by sculpties. Witness this picture and info that use to hang in Noru’s Collagesity Town Diner…

Jeogeot: West End, 03

Jeogeot West, etc., 02

… well, that’s not the actual picture by Melodie Darwin that was there but it’s a photo of the same Linden build, still found at the terminus of the West End Road. The town of WES is no longer around, however.

Omega Point

“The portal system was real enough. Everything revolved around the Zero Point, which is no more. It was like Second Life in this respect — instant or relative instant teleportation to all points Frank Park at least, and maybe beyond. It was because the stream knew all streams. All water knows all other water. Middle River is the cousin, in addition, to Spoon Fork. Even the quote unquote portal systems have some relation. Hi to Middle River in Center County is the highest or first portal of Spoon Fork. Mossmen knew of the system and attempted to reactivate First Portal. They partially succeeded. They didn’t fully tap into the Zero Point, however, and instant teleport was missed. The journey up the Korean Channel to Whitehead Crossing was indeed a real and hard and dangerous trip for the Mossmen faithful. They had reached their Zion.”

bb:

Thanks, Hucka D. I’m trying to jump start Frank and Herman mythology. Mossmen are key. Mmmmmmm’s are key. Marbles.

Hucka D.:

Mossmen encountered another force or group at the portal system. Kind of from Second Life but kind of not. Not Marbles, no. Obviously not Mmmmmmm’s.

bb:

Did the Mossmen create the Mmmmmmm’s?

Hucka D.:

Kind of[ again].

bb:

First Tree and the First Goodmobile, perhaps The Arab… all of that happened, yes?

Hucka D.:

Yes? But: yes.

bb:

And they came from Edwardston in Mythos, which they called Pluto or even Hades or Hell. They were persecuted there.

Hucka D.:

They were living entities in a Land of the Dead [Mythos]. But then you have the triangle Edwardston, Mythos, and then Edwards’s Stone over in Frank Park, and then First Tree, the landing spot of the Mmmmmmm’s. What’s the relation?

bb:

Edwards Stone must have been named for Edwardston. And likewise Seal Stone atop Grey Rock for Sealston. The Scarlet or Cardinal Triangle was the place of the rocket launch which landed in Whitehead Crossing. Rock climbed out of the Rocket. Rocket Man. Saw Crocodile Rock nearby. Eagle Rock. It was a Dundee and Alligator situation. Australia landing, actually. Mattson. Had to be stepped up from, like Yellow Brick Rock but not goodbye[ from that direction] but hello. Goodbye to the pit of the Records Center. Stepping up into the real Special Coll. Grey Seal was after Sharieland and 4 Sticks, however. No Name Spring as well — another Elton carryover. Why?

Hucka D.:

The 4 Sticks community knew of Sharieland over in Herman Park. Knew of Herman and his wife Lilly. She knew not the Day. Daniel was also there. (pause)

bb:

There was no 4 Sticks[ community] when Rock landed near Crocodile Rock.

Hucka D.:

So you have Rock flying into Whitehead X-ing. You have Mmmmmmm’s flying into First Tree. Maybe they simply came from Edward’s Stone or Edward Stone. The Emerald. Green Turtle is obviously a link.

bb:

Green Turtle also linked Whithead X-ing to Monhegan Island in Maine and the fairies there. They moved freely one from the other place. They called it Wixconsin.

Hucka D.:

Examine the triangle.

—–

The *Mossmen* attempted to weld Jeogeot with their Frank Park, to create the instant teleport. Jeogerocks were established. Grey Seal was the last of these, and the largest. A type of Mossman — Karoz — was established in Jeogeot in Second Life. This was the son of Gene Fade. But something bad happened — he was trapped within his limiting circle. Only Baker Block, the avatar of Whitehead himself, could save Karoz or add to him. But only if Whitehead truly establishes himself at the Crossing. Now this doesn’t seem to be happening — Whitehead (me, baker b.) will be moving to Middletown in his older age.

A main link between Jeogeot and Frank Park becomes the Korean Channel in each — direct carryover. It stands for Jeogeot’s Korean Channel. It stands for Green Stream below Whitehead X-ing which has memory of Spoon Fork which has memory of Middle River in Center County. Memories give out at the top of the channel. Whitehead is fully established. But is this good? Maybe not.

Toy King Pics?

Is this the actual Toy King of WW?

http://inside.warren-wilson.edu/blogs/echo/2010/10/the-mystery-bus-explained/

I think so, but not 100 percent sure. At any rate, he’s bussed off now to unknown dimensions and I am the new Toy King, or Baker( Block or Beach) is (Martel very close to Mattel). I have chosen to assume that Mantel; take up the charge. To expose the sole Loch Ness islands for what they are: man and dog united forever and ever. Caledonia be dammed.

Gene Fade The Mossman will probably push Baker (me) to become the new Toy King. Gene Fade is part of the Masters of the Universe, as he is conscious of at least now. He wishes to join his colleagues’ fight against Lego. He might even wish to help with the projected MotU film. Why wouldn’t he?

http://www.thekarachiite.com/2014/09/lego-crowned-the-undisputed-king-of-toys/

Hucka D.:

The Mmmmmm’s go where Gene Fade and The Mossmen go. The latter may have even created the former — we’re not sure[ yet]. And then the marbles roll along as well.

bb:

Thanks, Hucka D.

Hucka D.:

I’ll claim this[ one]. Lula Barbee is Rich. She even owns The Moon.

bb:

The marbles are from 3rd life. Ensouled avatars, once more. But 3d and real, unlike Second Life avatars. Strange that First Life, obviously, is real, and 3rd Life seems to be real but Second Life is not. Baker Block, I suppose.

Hucka D.:

Marbles got sick of Second Life avatar do-ups and went to 3rd which turned out to be first. Through the back door.

bb:

Rolled out again, eh.

Hucka D.:

Uncyclopedic. Awesome.

—–

bb:

Hucka D., the spheres of the Russell related animation I reproduce here…

… remind me of the marbles Little Bill holds on a fork in Greenup 11, revolved around by 8 tulips.

‘Cept here they are red, green, blue instead of red, yellow, blue. Same idea, though.

Hucka D.;

You will hold the same in Dumpport, out above The River. Orange you glad you asked.

bb:

It’s apparently the same 3 marbles as in Greenup17, also pictured above. Those are the only 2 collages of the Greenup series featuring marbles, and both of the red, green, and blue variety. These are perhaps the 3 original or Ur marbles.

Hucka D.:

Correct.

bb:

Later they join forces with yellow, actually, to form the true TILE waterfall pictured in Newton09.

And just to be complete about this, they only clearly appear together in one other Art 10×10 collage: Newton07.

And the most recent TILE Waterfall and perhaps the truest has been discussed in this October post, Hucka D. And on Bill Creek. Queer[ once more].

Middle: River + Way + 40 + Weak

Of course the main thing connecting Blue Mountain mythos and Middletown mythos (formerly Ashville mythos) is The Way. Perhaps spelled The Wey, but I think the former now. It’s another, er, way to define Centre County as a whole along with the Central River (official name still pending). Art River? (like Art Bears?), since the road runs ne to sw and defines a nice, full diagonal in the process. Although The Way also passes through the county Blue Mountain is the seat of, there it’s along the southern boundary. That’s actually another plus about the location of Future Home: very close proximity to this Way, and the ability to travel up and down it easily to hiking possibilities — such as Bentmore, the center of which is bisected by it, in essence. So I believe The Way is how toy avatars or whatever travel from Blue Mountain to Middletown and visa versa. In this way they can act as a kind of balance to each other. And of course The Way also bisects contiguous Frank and Herman Park, splitting them both in two, to the initial protest of Herman[ Munster]’s widow Lilly in the the 1940’s.

Speaking of 40’s, Superhighway 40 also bisects Centre County, running basically east to west across the county and also lying quite close to Future Home. In fact, The Way and SH 40 intersect only about 1 1/2 miles from FH. Another way to get to places quick, then. Blue Mountain has no superhighways, in contrast. Travel must be slower there in general. And yet another way Ashville is truly Middletown.

To summarize:

Central River: bisects Centre County north to south.
The Way: bisects Centre County northeast to southwest.
Superhigh 40 (?): bisects Centre County east to west.

The Pyramid is probably another way to link all of these together. We can also assume a 2nd diagonal running nw to se across the county, which would represent the weakest, 4th line defining the county. We might also be able to assign some color qualities.:

River: Blue
Way: Green
Superhigh: Red
Weak: Yellow

The Pyramid is based on exact measurements directly assoc. with the n-s passage of River through the county. The other defining lines of the county — Way, Superhigh, Weak, are not exactly defined as yet, and perhaps never will be.

So a focus for my remaining (?) time in Blue Mountain is to understand The Way, seemingly the only thing connecting the two mythologies, or most closely connecting them.

All of these line pass into other counties in both directions. So their story extends in the same essential directions on either side.

Here’s some further thoughts:

River is Number 1, and colored the highest value hue of blue. Way is Number 2, and colored green. Superhigh(way) is actually Interstate 30 now, and represents Number 3, then (30 = 3+0 = 3) and the color red. The weak line becomes the 4th line, which seems to have no physical attachment to a particular highway or road or stream or anything else. Appropriately it is then assigned the lowest value color of yellow.

(1) is defined mainly by The Pyramid now composed of points Alexfin (north), Bentmore (south) and Future Home (east or top or apex), and also its two 5.85 mile long arms connecting Alexfin to the place where The River crosses the northern county line and Bentmore to the place where The River intersects the *southern* county line. As stated, the line of The River across Centre County is the one most defined now. So let’s look at the larger picture of The River. Where does it start and where does it end? We’ll be asking this question for all bisecting county lines except the Weak Line, which doesn’t correspond with a physical object.

This weekend…

… should be able to visit the center of Bentmore, a newly minted Ashville, er, Middletown mythological zone. Don’t know exactly how to tag it yet. Country? I have a feeling Bentmore will become very important in the new Middletown mythology. Perhaps Alexfin again. Need to read early 90’s notebooks again for clues.

Hucka D.:

Alexfin was another place for toy avatars, but you obviously couldn’t focus on that. (pause)

bb:

Yes, I see that. Can’t believe I did stuff like that now. Toy avatars can be acquired much easier at yard sales (!).

Hucka D.:

You must erase that karma. A prison is now the center[ of Alexfin]. You can do this through Bentmore. You have most of the ingredients already. Bends on The River are important. Is it Central River? Heart River? You don’t have a committed name for it yet.

bb:

Hucka D., Winesap was just laying on the table at my mom’s house at Xmas. Turned out my nephew had lent my sister-in-law the book to read on a plane trip. Obviously this is a true synchronicity and not accident. Focus on Winesap, eh.

Hucka D.:

Yes.

bb:

Blue Mountain doesn’t have that type of central river.

“It’s why you’ve never understood Ashville completely. Sorry: *Middletown*. Good name. In middle of Centre County, but not the one in Pennsylvania. Okay, kind of that too. Half and half. Or 3/4 and 1/4.”

bb:

Thanks Hucka D. Hyghmythos was an invention necessary at the time, directly connecting Blue Mountain and Mythopolis in a powerful up and down way. The Synching Creek Designated Mystery area does not go *beyond* it but merely extends it, acting as a type of 3rd eye or substitute Anti-Mythos planet that didn’t manifest, perhaps.

Hucka D.:

Middletown and Centre County are centered by a pyramid[ to come to current terms again]. 666 between Future Home and another home that will play a small role in the proceedings. This is an Anti-Home. But not an Anti-Christ.

bb:

That much power, eh?

Hucka D.:

The maps have slightly changed in the meantime — since your relative youth. (smiles) I told you summer of 2010 that where we become 3 dimensional truly[ is Middletown]. You carry your Falmouth series, your Gilatona-Lis series forward there. But much more needs to be done in Blue Mountain in the meantime. Preparation. Cleansing. Can you pull it off?

bb:

That’s why I’m feeling offcentered now. 2014 was rough (!)

Hucka D.:

Everything offkilter except toward the end. Now you are moved. Now you can relax *just* a bit. Ashville reaches from the future as aid. Helping hand. You in future, kind of. But more. You need a future goal. Beyond work work. And that is what has been provided in the present.
