The Nordic Network for Amerindian Studies (Netindis) conference on “Getting back to Matter” in Copenhagen was initially scheduled for the fall of 2009  but logistic considerations induced the organizers to postpone the  event. The  conference has now  been re-scheduled for January 22-23, 2010. The extended deadline for abstracts is December 14, 2009. There is no registration fee as the Network has secured funding for  this conference. Participants are invited to a complimentary  conference dinner on Friday, January 22nd. However, participants are  responsible for their own travel and accommodation. Please let the Network coordinator know, no later than December 1st  2009, if you plan to participate in the conference and in the dinner on Friday night. For more information on details look at my earlier post. I particularly look forward to Tim Ingold’s paper “The materials of life.”

Once we have encountered someone they are permanently recorded in our memory and not forgotten unless we suffer some sort of catastrophic, irreversible memory loss. The factual details are recorded in our Parent and our emotional responses concerning the person are recorded in our Child – see my previous article on Perspective for a description of the Parent-Adult-Child (PAC) model developed by Thomas A Harris.

Consequently under normal circumstances once we get to ‘know’ someone it is not possible to get to ‘not know’ them or, to use a more common term, ‘forget them’. I think that whenever we encounter someone, however briefly, we establish a relationship that we never really ‘lose’. My view is that it continues to exist in one of the four states depicted below – Harmony, Triggers, Conflict or Resolution.

Even if we never see a person again after a brief encounter, e.g. check-in staff at the airport, one night stand etc, if our parting was on good terms the relationship remains forever in Harmony with no chance of ever entering Conflict because we will never see that person again and we will have warm, pleasant memories of the encounter. If, however, triggers occurred, e.g. the service, sex etc was terrible, this may have led to conflict and the relationship then remains forever in Conflict with no chance of resolution as we never get to see that person again in order to attempt to reach Resolution and restore Harmony.

The more time we spend with a person and the better we get to know them the more chance there is of entering the Conflict state. In his excellent book ‘You Can Be Happy No Matter What’ Richard Carlson says:

“THE THOUGHT SYSTEMS OF OTHERS

We have learned that thoughts with recurring patterns become part of our individualized thought systems. Because our thought systems are self-validating systems (in psychological terminology, closed systems), we are unable to question them, and it will always seem to us that we are seeing life accurately and realistically. Because of this, we tend to question the ways in which others live their lives and the ways they do things, because self-validating systems are very protective of themselves. Information that doesn’t match our existing beliefs will be filtered through our belief system and judged as “inconsistent with the truth,” “a strange way of doings,” “weird,” “unusual,” “different,” and most often, “wrong.”

As we get to know another person better this tendency to question their thought system will increase, not decrease. The more opportunity we have to interact and spend time with other thought systems, the greater is the chance of conflict. This is why the most difficult relationship, for so many people, is marriage. For unmarried people, the most difficult relationship is commonly the person they are closest or most intimate with. In some ways, it seems ironic that we should be most bothered by those to whom we wish to be closest. But it can’t be any other way, unless and until we understand the psychological functioning of ourselves and our partners. Once we do, the opposite will happen. With understanding, we will gain new love and respect for those we choose to spend the most time with. We will retain our positive feelings for them as special and unique people. The issue of our differences will cease to bother us – perhaps it will even become amusing! We will begin to see people as characters, rather than adversaries.”

I agree with Richard…the closer we are to someone the more likely it is that conflict will arise. When we talk about ‘working at a relationship’ I believe what we are saying is that we need to work through resolving conflict whenever it arises and that it is particularly hard work in our closest, most intimate relationships. As time goes on and the relationship evolves the frequency of entering the Conflict state diminishes; in some cases to a point where conflict no longer happens between the parties.

As the diagram shows I believe that the route to conflict is via triggers. These are pre-existing psychological states many of which have not yet been resolved. For example some peoples’ rage is triggered when they are pointed at moving them to the Conflict state while others just shrug and think “hmmm… pointing isn’t polite” and their rage is not triggered hence they remain in the Harmony state avoiding getting anywhere near the Conflict state.

A relationship that has become stuck in the Conflict state is sometimes described as lost. However I believe that there is no situation that cannot be resolved. Whether or not it does get resolved depends on the desire of all parties concerned to reach resolution and return to a state of Harmony. Communication and negotiation play a very important part in resolving conflict – see my previous articles on Communication and Negotiation.

Here are some of the things that I think are common causes of conflict:

Lack of Expectation Management – This is one of the major causes of the build up of anger leading to resentment and rage. This, in turn, results in very serious conflict – see my previous article on Expectations

Mismatching – Mismatching is also a significant cause of conflict. One of our major issues is hoping to match ourselves with others before we get to know ourselves. How can we hope to enter in to an effective match with someone else when we barely know who we are ourselves? This is why I think that introspection is so important – see my previous article on Introspection.

Attachment to Things and Acts – For a variety of reasons we find ourselves drawn to material things and acts of others toward us. Here are a couple of questions we should be asking ourselves:

• Are we falling in love/in love with ‘Our’ things (Our Tune, Our Joke, Our Place, Our Gifts etc) or with the person?
• Are we falling in love/in love with the person or the way we’re being treated?

Where we are in love with things or acts, once others are unable to give these to us anymore a major conflict occurs. The reason being that we no longer have any reason to stay with the person(s) who is (are) no longer a source of the things or acts that we have fallen in love with. So we move on to others who can restore to us what our former partner/friends etc are no longer able to give and leave them devastated. If we are in love with the person(s) and/or simply appreciate them for who they are we stick with them.

Possession or Person – The treatment of a person as a possession always leads to conflict. Whether slavery (actual or metaphoric), excessive jealousy or perceived ownership, the person(s) who is (are) the focus of the possessiveness will eventually rebel either quietly or very loudly.

Contact – Some of us are contact junkies; others of us are quite happy to wait, sometimes extended periods of time, between contacts. This can be a very significant source of conflict. Contact junkies will terminate relationships (or, more accurately in my view, put them in an indefinite state of Conflict) because they are aggrieved that they are not being contacted often enough.

Dominant Parent and/or Child – Where one, both or all parties in a relationship have a dominant Parent and/or Child conflict is inevitable. This is because the weakened or absent Adult is unable to assert the necessary rationality that fosters effective communication and negotiation. If the Adult is dominant and strong in at least one party the conflict can be resolved quickly.

Mental Illness – This in my view is the most disappointing cause of conflict. In my experience most people have taken the view that they did not get involved in a relationship to deal with someone’s psycho behaviour. It is disappointing because all it requires on the part of the person(s) who are mentally healthy is a resolve to assist the mentally ill person recover be it depression, neurosis or whatever.

Negativity – Excessive jealousy, extreme anger (rage), resentment, blaming and fault finding are just a few of the excellent ways to move very quickly to a state of Conflict. My advice is to avoid expressing negativity inappropriately at all costs.

In summary I think that the trick is to stay in the Harmony state. Where this is not possible then the triggers should be removed and/or the conflict resolved as quickly as is practicable.

Stay strong and serene.

I’m steadfast and spectral.
And a nice countenance describes me.
I can hand you the burthen of what I am. Sex.
Supernatural spirit distracting.
Seductive. Overpowering.
Maybe I am a matter spirit.
Sex is what I give to you, with my closed eyes. With beauty
in my eyes. Sex I give to you with extended hands, whilst you
with your face reclined don’t want to look at me.
Love in any position.
Love you’re looking for, nearly in any moment.
A most sensual sex. And sight and feel, most peculiar, with me,
they live in one another. And you see and you touch. And the level becomes
most gratifying. The world breaks down, yours signifying evermore.
I give you the sex off repose, and that one in,
I give you the most gratifying genitality, the terrestrial dream, and that one exoterrestrial.
I give you the tone you are after. The girl is the sweetness. And I have the intelligence
to see her, and to touch her, and to feel all that which my being gave me the power
to see, and to touch. I feel the design as a most mundane and genial sex.
Off with my dainty skin away from my past skin. I keep staying little and more, for
I am the sex-matrix. My hands are the most effectual weapon.
Most young and most mighty just as neither the most young nor the most mighty are,
because in the instant they are, I’m more.
I’m the distraction, the deviance, for those who believe
distraction and deviance exist. For those who don’t believe they exist
I am DEMOGORGON only, the unmerry daemon, the spark
dark, the being betwixt the numen and the human, perchance the phantom of the hero,
the instant growing ever more than the men living it or
being lived by. DEMOGORGON is your instant, teeny dimoites, when you work, when you rest,
when you study, when you entertain with the filamented presences round propagated and
strewn with themselves to keep the tissues compact, cohering and in solido.
And I, in spite of someone hesitating, am the Fiber. To keep united
the life internet.
I am always and evermore.
The common-felt world is my den.

Rachel Lois Clapham and Alex Eisenberg documented today’s 10 Performances event with a live feed they updated throughout the day. By the time my performance What To Do begins they’re halfway down their third page. I love their occasional attempts to type out variations on everything I was saying. You can read what they’ve written here.

The text of What To Do is available to download as a pdf from the 10 Performances website, but I’m not sure I recommend you read it: the effect of reading the text on a page or a screen is very different from the effect of the performance itself. I’d like to think about creating a version of What To Do that can exist only as text, but until that happens I think Alex and Rachel’s live account is a closer document.

And here’s my own document of another performance, scribbled in my notebook in the dark. Theron Schmidt’s This text bears false witness reminded me very happily of some phrases from John Barth’s Lost in the Funhouse, which I wrote about here and here earlier this year. (click for a larger image)

(“Hello is like a safety pin” is just a note to myself, about a poster Anton and I are working on.)

Hi There Everyone,

Great News I now have an official Facebook Fan Page!

Simply search for “Ashleigh Alexandra Louise Smith” on Facebook and Join my Fan Page today as that is where
photo’s and Video’s and News is being posted more regulary than at this blog.

So my advice is to join my facebook fan page and keep checking back here on a regular basis as the plan is to release
some exclusive photo’s and videos via this blog every now and again which will not appear on my facebook fan page and
then also put some stuff on Facebook which won’t appear here!

As you can see in the above video I sleep very well even when in noisy room’s, indeed
I reckon I could sleep through an earthquake I take after daddy like that : ) !

To finish for today here’s a quick video clip which daddy made by accident when he
was trying to take a picture of me on his mobile phone..

So Remeber to go to Facebook and search for “Ashleigh Alexandra Louise Smith” in the Manchester Network (England)
and join my Fanpage today!

Keep checking back as I have some important and amazing news coming very soon!

This is the second shelter we’ve been in, and it’s not been easy. The first shelter was just awful, there were six women there including me and my mother. For a hot second there were seven. It was a night shelter so we had to be out by eight in the morning, and check in by six. We had to be back by nine. It was clean…but then again it was an old and run down place, right smack dab in the middle of town, and all the women had stories…some were sad, but some I just didn’t want to hear. And there was no system to help any of them, help any of us. The woman running the place, Jennie as we’ll call her, was a little less the pleasant. To your face she was a sweet old grandma type, but she just plain refused to help my mother. Making any excuse not to give any form of help to her. One ladies was suicidal, one wasn’t going anywhere with her life, one person was old and clearly enjoyed being a part of that ‘homeless crowd’ (had been homeless and on disability for 12 years) and your telling me you couldn’t find a little cheap apartment somewhere? The last woman was just an unfortunate woman, with an abusive past.

All the ‘Hosts’ as they were called, were anything else. You see, every night a set of people would ‘over see’ the shelter. It was a range of people, from college students to ‘Grandma Moses’ as my mother called one. There was an unusually large amount of ‘Barbie’ type women, who had a picture perfect American Dream family at home, with their star-studded husbands. They were there doing their charity to the community.  They nearly disgusted me with the way they seemed to always be looking down on us, even while striking up a conversation and smiling. They said “We offer breakfast, lunch and dinner.” Breakfast was a sandwich bag with a juice box, a granola bar, and a cup of fruit. Lunch was a juice box, a granola bar, a cup of chips, and a cup of fruit. Dinner was anything from dried up ravioli, to a day old box of pizza. Luckily we had food stamps, so we were never hungry.

Don’t get me wrong, I was happy to have a place to stay, but if I could help it, I was sleeping at a friend’s.

Eventually we accepted someone’s invitation to stay at their house. Little did we know that it was a short-lived invitation. We stay with her as long as possible, but Mommy said she might have to stay in a shelter a few nights to perhaps speed up the ‘helping’ process. All of her help fell through though. She thought she was putting me in a good school, but it was ghetto as hell, as well as the education was just terrible. It was anything but good. In fact everything she tried to help with only got worst. Not long after she made it quite apparent neither of us were welcome. So we both ended up in a second shelter. Granted, it was much cleaner, and more structured then the first, but “It’s still a fucking shelter.” As my mom so bluntly put it.

And it is, oh it is. Sure here, we get breakfast, lunch, and dinner, a snack halfway between every meal, but that doesn’t consulate for the maggots we found in the granola bars, nor the fifty billion rules we have to abide by in hopes of not getting kicked out. They have a point system, where when you run out a points, you no longer have a place to stay. Rules include, no walking around barefoot, or in just a tank top. No cellphones, food, drinks, mp3 players, or laptops in the ‘dorm’, kids are to stay with their mothers at all times. Be dressed by 8, up by 5:45 during the week, including days off. Be in bed by 8:30 if you’re a child, 9 if you’re a teen, and 10 if you’re an adult.  If you take your medication without checking it into the office first, you get an automatic out. No changing in the dorm, no leaving your baby unattended, or letting it sleep in while your get ready in the morning. Those are all the rules I can think of right now, but there are more. You can’t breath wrong or you lose points, and get that much closer to getting a outdate.

They don’t really care because they don’t have to eat here, they don’t have to sleep here, this is a job to them. Some of them care, and some of us just think of us as Business Transactions. That is who, no what we are when we walk in the front doors of the “Piece of Heaven.”

Doesn’t matter if we don’t have a place to stay, in or out, your matter very little.

Perception, though we believe is restricted to respective senses, in reality, is done through the coordination of the five senses along with mind(mind is taken as an organ in Indian Philosophy) .
We see through eyes because eyes are tuned in to the vibrations of the objects which we see, that is it is in the same wave length as that of the object.If the vibrations of the objects vary, then eye can not see.If the vibrations(energy radiation) of a particular object,that has to be heard, is in the range of eye’s vibration, then we see the sound.
Principle underlying the phenomena is the fact that energy is the underlying Principle and the difference between Matter and Energy is one of degree, not of kind.
Story:
A study found that inaudible puffs of air delivered alongside certain sounds influenced what participants thought they were listening to.
Writing in the journal Nature, the team said the findings showed that audio and visual clues were not the only important factors in how people hear.
The findings may lead to better aids for the hard of hearing, experts said.
It is already well known that visual cues from a speaker’s face can enhance or interfere with how a person hears what is being said.

If further research can show the same effect is observed when listening to everyday conversation in the ‘real’ world, then it could help improve hearing aids

In the latest study, researchers at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver wanted to look at whether tactile sensations also affected how sounds are heard.
They compared sounds which when spoken are accompanied by a small inaudible breath of air, such as “pa” and “ta” with sounds which do not such as “ba” and “da”.
At the same time, participants were given – or not – a small puff of air to the back of the hand or the neck.
They found that “ba” and “da”, known as unaspirated sounds, were heard as the aspirated equivalents, “pa” and “ta”, when presented alongside the puff of air.

Description:
The Condensed Matter Physics program supports experimental, as well as combined experiment and theory projects investigating the fundamental physics behind phenomena exhibited by condensed matter systems. Representative research areas in such systems include: 1) phenomena at the nano- to macro-scale including: transport, magnetic, and optical phenomena; classical and quantum phase transitions; localization; electronic, magnetic, and lattice structure or excitations; superconductivity; and nonlinear dynamics. 2) low-temperature physics: quantum fluids and solids; 1D & 2D electron systems. 3) soft condensed matter: partially ordered fluids, granular and colloid physics, and 4) understanding the fundamental physics of new states of matter as well as the physical behavior of condensed matter under extreme conditions e.g., low temperatures, high pressures, and high magnetic fields. Questions of current interest that span these research areas are: How and why do complex macroscopic phenomena emerge from simple interacting microscopic constituents? What new physics occurs far from equilibrium and why? What is the physics behind the behavior of matter confined to the nanoscale in one or more dimensions? What is the physics of spin systems and quantum states of matter that could lead to their coherent manipulation and control?

Description:
This program supports theoretical and computational materials research and education in the topical areas represented in DMR programs, including condensed matter physics, polymers, solid-state and materials chemistry, metals and nanostructures, electronic and photonic materials, ceramics, and biomaterials. The program supports fundamental research that advances conceptual, analytical, and computational techniques for materials research. A broad spectrum of research is supported using electronic structure methods, many-body theory, statistical mechanics, and Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations, along with other techniques, many involving advanced scientific computing. Emphasis is on approaches that begin at the smallest appropriate length scale, such as electronic, atomic, molecular, nano-, micro-, and mesoscale, required to yield fundamental insight into material properties, processes, and behavior and to reveal new materials phenomena. Areas of recent interest include, but are not limited to: strongly correlated electron systems; low-dimensional systems; nonequilibrium phenomena, including pattern formation, microstructural evolution, and fracture; high-temperature superconductivity; nanostructured materials and mesoscale phenomena; quantum coherence and its control; and soft condensed matter, including systems of biological interest.

Os americanos tem o costume de celebrar todo ano o “Thanksgiving Day” – o Dia de Ação de Graças – que acontece toda quarta Quinta-feira de Novembro, que neste ano no caso é amanhã.

Como manda a tradição reúne-se a família em grandes jantares para comer Peru e agradecer a Deus pelas coisas boas do ano (você já ter visto em algum filme ou seriado).

É neste cenário que a PETA, (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals), organização que luta pelo direito dos animais, lançou um comercial recheado de polêmica, ingrediente principal de suas ações. Vejam:

Como não encontrei o filme legendado, segue aqui a transcrição e minha tradução livre do comercial.

Transcrição “Dear God. Thank you for the turkey we’re about to eat. And for the turkey farms where they pack them into dark, tiny little sheds for their whole lives. Thank you for when they burn their feathers off when they’re still alive and for when turkey gets kicked around like a football and killed by people who think it’s fun to stomp on their little turkey heads. And special thanks for all the chemicals and dirt and poop that’s in the turkey we’re about to eat. Oh, and thank you for rainbows.”

Tradução livre “Querido Deus. Obrigada pelo peru que estamos prestes a comer. E para as fazendas de peru, onde embalam eles no escuro, em minúsculos galpões para o resto de suas vidas. Obrigada por quando eles queimam as suas penas enquanto eles ainda estão vivos e por quando os perus são chutados por aí como uma bola de futebol e mortos por pessoas que acham que é divertido pisar em suas pequenas cabeças. E agradecimentos especiais para todos os produtos químicos e sujeira e cocô que está no peru que estamos prestes a comer. Ah, e obrigada pelos arco-íris.”

Adorei o contraste das palavras duras com o ar meigo da menina, que suavizou um pouco (só um pouco) o peso das palavras. Não sou vegetariana, mas admiro quem abrace essa causa e gostei do filme. O que vocês acharam? A agência responsável foi a Matter de Los Angeles.

Ah! O comercial foi banido.

Tomorrow (26 November 2009), the London School of Economics is hosting ‘Creating the organisms that evolution forgot – An ‘Any Questions?’ debate on synthetic biology‘.

The debate will be hosted by Quentin Cooper from the BBC’s ‘Material World’ and will feature a mixture of scientists, social scientistist and hopefully, as indicated, YOU!

Details of the event can be found here.

It’s been a fucked up a confusing time of my life…like really fucked up.

So my girlfriend that i think i love, cause these fucking butterflies in my stomach that make me lose my appetite as pathetic as it may sound, that must be love, i’m not sure what love is.After serious fucked up relationships, i tought this time i’m lucky, this time i matter to someone for fuck sake(yeah i said fuck 1000 times i know), i was glad to find out i don`t …yeah i don’t matter to her.

I have read in her blog that the only person that matters is her friend that is in a coma; now i have nothing against the man, but se said he loves him the most in her blog, she doesn’t know i read it.

She never said to me those words…those god damned words : I love you. I know she loves the guy as a friend, plus the guy lives 100000 miles away,but se said he was there for her to her worts times.Ok you love the guy…but i don’t matter, you don`t love me? You make me feel like you do, in a genuine way and thats whats fucked up.

Shit, life is not a happy song, listening to happy song make things worse for me in situations like this.

I know what’s true and what’s not, but without sounding emo`ish , do i matter or not…now i feel like i don`t

reminder: never let your guard down cause it’s a fucked up lil world.

I’m practising for the 26th.

Watch the edges; yet another birth, another coming-to, another attempt at elucidation, lucid, try lucidity, for a change, just watch the edges, and also, try to aim at the opaque, but where’s the opaque in the translucid, and how, how does it

Elucidation: an act of explaining that serves to clear up and cast light on. The splendid, harsh ambiguity of words, the clustering of them, the annoying coming-to, they do not leave us they do not, they do not leave us, an act of explaining, take that, an act, ex-plain, serves, clear, clear up, cast, cast, cast, light. On.

And as it is happening, you watch it take shape, this thing, this event, this work, this thing-in-work-in-process, which is you in the stupidest of senses, you have been feeding it and yes, you were the, the ur-text, but what with it, the bone, the rib, the biblical Eve, so clearly not you, going elsewhere, as you watch

For generations, most people never sought specialized knowledge after completing school. What they learned about business, managing, selling, or their profession was acquired on an accidental hit-or-miss basis.

Now that’s changed. Today there are seminars, workshops, short courses, and conferences where you can learn the latest techniques and knowledge about anything you need to know. These sources of specialized knowledge have three advantages over conventional education. They are taught by experts, not be people whose only qualification is a degree. Second, the subject matter relates directly to your needs. Irrelevant information is avoided. And third, you’ll acquire as much useful information from other attendees as you do from the instructors. Specialized learning meetings attract only sharp people eager to make more money and enjoy greater success.

EXPOSED – KEN WEBSTER HYPNOTIST – The TRUTH – What He Truly Feels About ILLEGAL – UNETHICAL – UNINSURED & UNLICENSED wannabe badly trained UK Street Magical Hypnotists….. (Also Comment By Rolye on Anthony Jacquins “Reality Is Plastic” book – The Manchurian Approach DVD’s” etc and how they are DANGEROUS as he personally DOES NOT KNOW THE LAW as evidenced by his ill informed postings on Uncommon forum and other internet sites..

Hi Guys & Girls,

Due to postings I’ve just discovered on the internet illustrating how many INCORRECTLY TRAINED – DANGEROUS & UNINSURED wannabe Street Hypnotists there are I urge you to send this email to every hypnosis and magical mentalism friend you have…

CHECK THIS VIDEO OUT FIRST…

http://www.metacafe.com/watch/3249046/street_hypnosis_in_uk_is_illegal_plastic_reality_dangers/

 And then CHECK THIS EXPLOSIVE SITE OUT:

And Here’s what KEN WEBSTER (Chairman Of The Federation of Ethical Stage Hypnotists) has to say about it all:

 http://roylehypnotist.wordpress.com/2009/08/25/what-does-ken-webster-the-chairman-of-the-federation-of-ethical-stage-hypnotists-fesh-think-about-illegal-and-dangerous-street-hypnotists/

I’d strongly advise you all to READ EVERY WORD of the above postings and also EVERY COMMENT made about the postings and then decide for yourself….. but REMEMBER THIS…

01) Under 1952 Hypnotism Act you can face a £1,000 Fine…

02) Breaking the Hypnosis Conditions of Licensing Act 2003 could lead to a £10,000 fine and/or six months imprisonment for some involved and ultimately mega bad press and litigation agains the hypnotist….

 03) KEN WEBSTER has issued a statement (see posting above) confirming that my concerns are correct and that these ill trained UNI|NSURED and UNLICENSED wannabe hypnotists are both potentially dangerous whilst also being ILLEGAL….

04) NUmerous UK Councils have issued statements (see above links) confirming this to be correct and that THE UK STREET MAGIC HYPNOTIST’S are ILLEGAL – UNLICENSED AND UNINSURED…

I’d say that also makes them wholly UNETHICAL and IRRESPONSIBLE… But hey what do you expect when your sold a product (say Plastic Book or DVD) which does not cover UK LAWs….

And thats why my Special Xmas offer COVER’S ALL UK HYPNOSIS LAWS (and all loopholes) together with isurance details and such like… So to BE A LEGAL – HONEST AND SAFE ETHICAL HYPNOTIST Secure your Future now by visiting….
