imagine...

Connie, I love the dinosaur-in-plant images! They're great.

FYI if anyone in Philly is interested, I'm heading to New York on Friday with Jay Walker and another girl from school. We're planning on visiting galleries, so if you're looking for some aesthetic inspiration there are 2 extra seats in Jay's car. We're leaving in the a.m. and coming back that evening, so let me know if you want to join in.

So I had a crazy idea the other night, don't know if anything will come of it, but if nothing else maybe it'll spawn more ideas for people.

imagine... a black box, large enough for only you to walk inside...the interior is black as well as the outside...when you're inside it is dark, but you hear whispers of wind blowing...then the wind kicks up, wildly blowing, all around you, and all at once images flash before your eyes- time-lapsed images of a seed blossoming into a plant in full bloom, a bird hatching from an egg, someone pitching a tent, maybe a potter forming something from a lump of clay, maybe someone communicating 'new life' in sign language. (All of these images would stream simultaneously and take maybe 5-10 seconds. All of them would be time-lapsed except for the sign language; maybe that one would be slowed down.) So that takes about 5 seconds and then there's a bright flash of light (like the kind they use for professional photography) and everything goes dark, and you hear a baby laugh.
That's it.

So maybe it's a little out there....let me know your thoughts.

"And he who was seated on the throne said, 'Behold, I am making all things new." (Revelation 21:5)
