    Adams Rubble: Good morbing Eliza :)
    Eliza Madrigal: Morning Adams :)
    Adams Rubble: How has PaB been this week?
    Eliza Madrigal: well we've been talking a lot about judgment
    Eliza Madrigal: and talking about how we talk about things
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Adams Rubble: nad has that been judged as a good topic?
    Adams Rubble: and
    Adams Rubble: :)

    Adams Rubble: Is there anything left to discuss?
    Eliza Madrigal: lots I'm sure... have you thoughts on it?
    Eliza Madrigal: there is also this coming week's theme of 'transcendence'
    Adams Rubble sings movin on up...

    Adams Rubble: Good morning Stevenaia :)
    stevenaia Michinaga: good morning
    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Stevie

    stevenaia Michinaga: thank you for the t-shirt ad, I was going to ask about this afternoon's Art History workshop, hope to make it
    Eliza Madrigal: interesting topic, me too
    Adams Rubble: Dubrovna is still working away on it
    stevenaia Michinaga: crack that whip
    Eliza Madrigal: any teasers you could leak?
    Adams Rubble: hmmmm
    --BELL--
    Adams Rubble: The concepts of "seeing" and "being seen" are fairly well defined in these two traditions. I think it may provide a jumping point to look at other traditions
    Adams Rubble: when last seen, our hero was struggling with a daemon at the top of the high cliff.....
    Adams Rubble: hehe
    Eliza Madrigal smiles
    stevenaia Michinaga: sounds like we need some piano music in the backgound
    Adams Rubble: :)
    Adams Rubble: the herione has been judged as lost but is transcending unbeknownst to the daemon
    Eliza Madrigal: :) must find out what happens... will we?
    Adams Rubble: stay tuned to PaB after the workshop :)
    stevenaia Michinaga: :)
    Eliza Madrigal: haha...
    Eliza Madrigal: After the workshop we have another here, for Art of Being Motion... learning moving scripts...
    Adams Rubble nods
    Eliza Madrigal: so perhaps can make a cliff scene...
    Adams Rubble: yes
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    stevenaia Michinaga: hehe, I'm working with a consultant, some are clueless, I;m scriptless
    Adams Rubble: sadly I won't be able to make that. Sounds interesting to learn about scripts
    Eliza Madrigal: being seen falling
    Eliza Madrigal: :) consultant.. fancy, Stevie
    stevenaia Michinaga: no, jsut desperate
    Eliza Madrigal: I am mostly finished I think... but am looking for a tiny frog
    Adams Rubble: wow
    stevenaia Michinaga: was that a preview?
    stevenaia Michinaga: oops
    Eliza Madrigal: this one is too big
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Adams Rubble has no frogs in her inventory just a notecard on the wisdom of frogs
    Eliza Madrigal: wisdom of frogs?
    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Boxy :)
    Adams Rubble: Hello Boxy :)
    stevenaia Michinaga: hi Boxy
    Alfred Kelberry: hi girls :)
    Eliza Madrigal: thank you Adams :::reads::::
    Alfred Kelberry: adams told me you've been looking for a tiny frog, eliza - why? :)
    Adams Rubble sent Boxy a notecard of session so far

    Eliza Madrigal: for my motion project, Boxy :)
    Alfred Kelberry: ah, the art of being project :) thank you, adams
    Eliza Madrigal: what a wonderful note Adams, thank you so much...
    stevenaia Michinaga: I'm listening to all this silent music on youtube, haven;t found one that matches Adam's clif hanger moment
    stevenaia Michinaga: Silent movie music
    Eliza Madrigal: "Life is only song" ... just love that
    stevenaia Michinaga: there is no silent music :)
    Alfred Kelberry: what are you up to this sunday?
    Eliza Madrigal: waking :)
    Eliza Madrigal: you, Boxy?
    Adams Rubble wondering whether the song in our hears could count as sient muic
    Adams Rubble: heart
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    stevenaia Michinaga: usually it;s the loudest
    Eliza Madrigal: still small voice or whispering rabbit...
    stevenaia Michinaga: hmmm, time for e RL field trip to find a NYT
    stevenaia Michinaga: see you at 12:00
    Alfred Kelberry: heh, waking is a good plan :)
    Adams Rubble: have a nice trip Steve
    Alfred Kelberry: what's nyt?

    Missed Eliza's answer. yes, that makes more sense

    Adams Rubble: hope Steve's dress does not get dirty in the sibway
    Eliza Madrigal: new york times , I think
    Eliza Madrigal: or from inky fingers
    Adams Rubble: presuming it is the New York Train
    Adams Rubble: or transit
    Alfred Kelberry: um, stev must enjoy a crisp newspaper in her hands :)
    Eliza Madrigal: no yam toast
    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Korel :)
    Alfred Kelberry: i forgot when i bought a newspaper last time
    Adams Rubble wants some flap jacks
    Adams Rubble: Good morning Korel :)
    Eliza Madrigal: myself too... buy them only when the kids have projects
    Alfred Kelberry: sexy kori girl :)
    Korel Laloix: Morning.
    Eliza Madrigal: but I've been missing the feeling of nice magazines... ntl geographic, new yorker...
    Eliza Madrigal: am going to spend more time in the library this summer :)
    Korel Laloix: To me magazines equal clutter.. so my over organized side keeps me from collecting htem.
    Adams Rubble: Librarians are born to roganize clutter
    Eliza Madrigal nods... there are few really worthwhile to have delivered I think... unless one specializes in something
    Korel Laloix: That is probably the key.
    Adams Rubble: Hello Visitor
    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Visitor
    Adams Rubble: Have you been here before?
    Adams Rubble waves bye to Visitor
    Eliza Madrigal: :)

    Eliza had rezzed a frog in the air and Korel sat on it

    Korel Laloix: The frog is creapy.
    Eliza Madrigal: heheh
    Korel Laloix: So sitting on her is the answer of course...
    Eliza Madrigal: the frogs and geckos outside my window now, during spring rains, are so joyful... loud...
    Eliza Madrigal: and it has taken me years to hear their rhythms well
    Korel Laloix: Not sure I have ever heard a gecko.
    Korel Laloix: Will look it up.
    Alfred Kelberry: when do they start making noise?
    Eliza Madrigal: they seem to space themselves all about the neighborhood just so, spacially
    Adams Rubble wonders if she will learn the rhythms of leaf blowers outside her window
    --BELL--
    Eliza Madrigal: well this year it began about a month ago
    Alfred Kelberry: morning? evening?
    Alfred Kelberry: my neighborhood birds wake up at 5:30 am :)
    Adams Rubble: yes, morning , evening and in between :)
    Eliza Madrigal: frog band is liveliest at night... but in the hours too
    Eliza Madrigal: Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! :D :p :D :p :D
    Eliza Madrigal: (that was unintentional, hah)
    Adams Rubble: happy frogs
    Alfred Kelberry: ouch, at night. do you sleep ok?
    Eliza Madrigal: yes, very :)
    Eliza Madrigal: if you hear the song it is comforting
    Korel Laloix: Just like crickets... one is unbearable.. thousands are soothing.
    Eliza Madrigal: mmmm yes
    Alfred Kelberry: ok, good for you that you enjoy it :)
    Alfred Kelberry: ah, you reminded me, kori
    Korel Laloix: Of what?
    Korel Laloix: Must be something very very good.
    Korel Laloix smiles
    Alfred Kelberry: it's like in a fast food hall in a big mall. one chair scratching the floor is annoying, but a hundred you hardly notice :)
    Korel Laloix: Never thought of that.
    Korel Laloix: Watched a movie once, there was a line two guys in a hotel room.. One asks how often the train goes by.
    Korel Laloix: He repllied, so often you won't even notice.
    Korel Laloix: I am thankfull we are able to put things out of our minds like that.
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Alfred Kelberry: but if you listen you can hear distinct scratching here and there that never stops for more than a few seconds
    Adams Rubble: There once was a cricket near Kori
                            Who was annoying in all it's glory
                             Joined by his brothers
                             and many others
                             Soothed Kori with sounds of their story
    Eliza Madrigal: :::::claps::::::
    Alfred Kelberry: yes, we're good at tuning out, adapting. like eliza and her frogs :)
    Alfred Kelberry: co-exist wonderfully together :)
    Alfred Kelberry: adams :)
    Korel Laloix smiles
    Korel Laloix: Never been a subject of a poem before....
    Korel Laloix: Thanks.
    Eliza Madrigal smiles
    Adams Rubble: :)
    Adams Rubble: I am going to have to run but I have the log and will post it later
    Korel Laloix: I have had some very creative things said to me and about me though.... smiles
    Eliza Madrigal: thanks Adams
    Korel Laloix: OK... thanks.. take care.
    Eliza Madrigal: hope to make the workshop
    Adams Rubble: Have a good day everyone. Dubrovna will be glad to see you there :)
    Adams Rubble: bye for now :)
    Eliza Madrigal: :) bfn
    Korel Laloix: Which workshop?
    Alfred Kelberry: bye
    Eliza Madrigal: Engaging with the Sacred Image. Adams Dubrovna will intriduce and lead a discussion about "seeing" Hindu images and Orthodox Icons at the Museum of Sacred Art Christian Wing Bieup
    Eliza Madrigal: 12 (noon)
    Korel Laloix: Darn RL will keep me out of that one.
    Korel Laloix: Sounds fun though.
    Eliza Madrigal: iconography is fascinating
    Eliza Madrigal: images underneath images..
    Alfred Kelberry: somehow church icons look creepy and unsettling to me
    Korel Laloix: My first Christian girlfriend is Russian Orthodox.
    Korel Laloix: Some are meant to be that way...
    Eliza Madrigal: but once you see the layers it is more compelling
    Korel Laloix: I was surprised to see them through the eyes and interpretations of those that grew up with them.
    Eliza Madrigal: yes?
    Alfred Kelberry: i'd rather see monet or something :)
    Korel Laloix: There are a couple of SL Orthodox chruches.
    Korel Laloix: Looking at paintings is not a great thrill for me.
    Korel Laloix: But when I see the icons, there is a spiritual layer that I connect with.
    Eliza Madrigal: yes
    Korel Laloix: And I do love the word iconoclast.
    Korel Laloix: Or however it is spelled.
    Alfred Kelberry: some are quite captivating. like they become your friend, some connection.
    Eliza Madrigal: yes :)
    Eliza Madrigal: and when one knows the backgrounds of things details can pop...
    Eliza Madrigal: even just little bits of noticing
    Korel Laloix: And what you said before, some are unsetteling... but those are on purpose.
    Korel Laloix: Well.. some are.
    Eliza Madrigal nods
    Korel Laloix: I do connect with the orthodox mindset I think.
    Korel Laloix: Much more than my MCC or my grandma's Baptist.
    --BELL--
    Eliza Madrigal: was thinking about that too recently... feeling a bit sad that my kids haven't grown up in cathedrals :) feel we need to make some trips... though, of course we all live in a cathedral if we notice :)
    Korel Laloix: I also find it interesting how the orthodox denominations could have adopted more modern and realistic ways of painting, but did not.
    Eliza Madrigal nods
    Korel Laloix: I went into a few in the UK in Cambs.
    Eliza Madrigal: I have to go kori but don't want to pull the frog out from under you... hehe....
    Korel Laloix: And a couple in Munich.
    Korel Laloix: Amazing.
    Eliza Madrigal: Nice!
    Korel Laloix: There are great presences in those places.
    Korel Laloix: Thanks for teh creapy seaty.
    Eliza Madrigal: says "come here my creepy little frog friend"
    Korel Laloix: Love the dress.
    Eliza Madrigal: thanks.. happy clothes
    Eliza Madrigal: I'd love to continue this conversation sometime... so interesting
    Korel Laloix: Take care.
    Eliza Madrigal: bye for now
    Korel Laloix: ciao bella
    Korel Laloix: It was a good chat for a while.
    Korel Laloix: Take care box-e
