2022 is upon us, and what a doozy it is! Coming soon: 2023
..... may not be coming at all; after 40 Years (more really....)
I think I had enough. 't was nice not knowing you all, or not.

Meanwhile
at Huanita's:

Where to put the banana
2084 or 2048 - a rewrite of 1984
is in order. (Heared it here first!)
250 years and we are heading back to the monarchy
in the hope for opportunity. Well, the positions of toilet
attendant in the Kaiserpark
have been taken by robots.
The dream was nice, it lastet ~250 years.

Red
vs. blue; the red demons attack
the Democrat side making it appear saintly under these pepetual
assaults.
Sad to observe the ensuing decay, as the nation is lead to waste their
time on mostly unimportant things.
The neo-Republican forces want
to turn the clock back to feudal times hoping for lucrative positions.
No more meritocracy, in liew of an ass-kissing serf system which
suits their anal-retentive,
anachronistic, world view much better.
Prepare for fear and tears!
Requiem.
At least there is some good news: A photo from the James
Webb telescope
proves the effort is worth while! Here is a close up of a Black Hole
far, far away:

And a hence to unknown portrait of Frau Franz Xaver
Messerschmidt:

+ A local sculpture attribited to the father of Alexander Calder:
Well, a real image, truly an image, not just a
picture.
Seems like it just was Christmas ............ and now for Easter:

About (my) ART
:
What you think you see is not what
I thought
I had painted,
conversely, what you thought I had
painted is
not what I had envisioned.
So you see we are in a partnership,
you and I,
thank you for attending.

Meanwhile going on Easter:
It's time for Music Experiments in 3D sound and pictures:
Ask yourself: "Has
anybody pinged my middle C lately?"
Do your frogs
demand credit cards? Well, riveting demands for credit
cards........................... just listen to them:

On the Covid front: There is more to be thankful for (?!)

"Es is a Kreiz"
However, prayers will not help.
Especially when you don't adhere to your own doctrines.

Note: Light assembly required (batteries not included).

In the absence of getting vaccinated
& reserving the right to be stupid:

One
last act of
defiance:
If you do not
believe in science why would you go to a hospital to get cured?
Remember: "Nobody knocks at the doors of the dead!"
For confirmation check out the NY Opera: "Euredyce"
Observations:
The history of mankind repeats again too
many are too ignorant about nearly everything.
Prepare for tears!
He/She who doesn't know anything will believe just about anything.
Simple installation
the box promised. Ha!
24 hours later with hours spent on the telephone........
The kit has become the
message, as PC's are slipping from tools to toys.
Updates upon updates, designed to make the money you earned and spent
obsolete.
New "standarts" are being touted and toppled faster than the flaws they
contain.
No discipline - no rest for the engaged, dropping out is no longer an
option.
Making a mockery of the word "standart" onto itself.
REQUIEM.
On the lighter side of philosophy and math:
There appears to be more nothing
than something in the universe
and yet nothing is
generally perceived as less than something.
Happy
*.* from
In 2022 the ongoing turmoil stemming from Covid 19 still runs on
illusions and fantasy
since froad and deceit are the "new" norm established by D. Trump and
his froadsters.
But face it: You are not, or will you ever be, in control of the
ensuing chaos.
All the bubbles are poised to burst leaving us with the customary scum.
Bill in hand.
All illusions are bursting bubbles, what remains is the
grime that remains on the platform.
Here is a prediction for 2022:
Many of us will try their luck in small busineses only to
find
that they cannot compete without becoming what they hate the
most:
Cheaters, fraudsters and manipulators -
REQUIEM.
Meanwhile winter seems
to be yielding to early signs of global warming (e.g. spring).

Cellphones get in the way of what's important!
The life guard clearly doesn't pay attention.

New art
and new white
papers
by Frau Dulent.
Below
Here is one of her good ideas:
Repurposing one of those neck braces you bought in the air port at a
premium price.
Well, it's time to get your money's worth:
Repupose it as no-spill-beverage cup holder while in bed.
Ta
daaah.......
Or how about
stabilizing a cup on a rocking coffee house table.
(They never figured the three point stabelixing effect out,
so they use four points and the tables always rock.)
Just switch the heat filter upside down, it helps:

Does the future hold any?
The fortune teller (Frau D's sister) predicts three.
So, scale the picture to your preferred size,
relax your eyes and
perceive at least three.
An idea who's time has come again: Reviving a Baroque concept,
Covid Pest
Commemorative Monuments
(Covid-Pestsäule EU-style) suggests itself, when it is time
to commemorate the Covid turmoil once
the crises is at an end....
Perhaps
convert the Washington obelisk
Just another Trump Tower?
Speaking about Baroque - how about
going Neoclassicism route?
What, not enough disasters? Not enough grief?
We make some!
Get a new iPhone, it'll solve all your problems.... but: You
woun't get your data out to a PC, except by email,
"Who you gona call?" And how:

We make some more!
Denouncing your neighbors - anyone with a coathanger is
suspect!
Forgive them, they knoweth not what they have done.
Wo needs the Afghanistan Taliban when they have Texas
fundamentalism in their union?!
And still the companies move to Texas, oblivious to ethics
and politics.
Mind you that is not just the coathanger manufacurers!
Fire inspired abstract art;
Simple ingredients for comlex results, watercolors, dies
and print:
"Nobody knocks at the doors of the dead!"
Check out the NY Opera: Euredyce
Alas, no more Alices ...

Climate change is to blame!

And now: Springtime for the arts in the USA?
Reporting from the "Fine Ars Fronteer":
The death of ART is neigh.
So, thanks for all the fish and REQUIEM, make way for the * * 's
( [* *] an adequate derogatory term has yet to be invented!).
Which means the entire Republican
Art Gallery is more empty now
than ever, but: The nation can be great again.
One serious question remains: Are these supposed to be buidingd
or just midle
fingers?
Late news: As it
turns out Muhamad Ali's is greater than Donald
Trump's;
even though he never won against Cassius Clay. see
below:
A lesson for art investors:
More
money for worse art.

As Covid remains largely an airborne issue - face
it, and cover your face!
Susceptable? Get the booster shot.Which side of the divide are you on?
Do you play poke her?

Count on reframing the problem:
Four's the charm? Maybe. But how can you be
sure? Left poke or right poke?
Party politcs and the animal
kingdom:
There are lessons to be learned!
But(t) they are clearly not heeded!
The supreme court has become an extension of the Trump party
Democracy has been sold out and eroded right from under us.
Dictation from the unbalanced minority will and has already followed
patriotisms and objectivity has given way to power-hunger and ignorance.
REQUIEM, for what could have been great nation.
Furthermore:
Making politics out of "Back to Shool" days?
Lessenings to be learned at Cuomo Elementary:
Now you may rightfully ask why it is usually the Democrats
that have
the sex scandals. Well, you rarely hear of a piece of elephant.
Party-kack!
