Tropicana Casino Billboard
At first glance, I thought this billboard ad for the Tropicana Casino in Vegas said "everything's new, now let's break it"...especially like the champaign bottle explosion.

kinetic
evidence of kinetic energy is all around us. manifesting itself in patterns and shapes with rhythmic concentration. the yearning feeling i get in the base of my stomach just looking at the curvature and latency of this energy reassures me that we are not so disconnected from the world around us such that simple signs can have such a resounding and evocative effect on us...well maybe more for a surfer...
images swiped from the latest surfline video clip: newly discovered river bore surf in sumatra. fantastic!

worth
this image is one i'll always remember of the tsunami waves hitting the japanese coastline. the cresting sets stacking to the horizon. the scale, the helplessness against the magnitude of destruction. things like this only confirm how miniscule our entire existence really is in light of larger things. how fragile our 'worth' is in the face of the middle of the situation into which we've put ourselves. we've managed to find ways to wake the beast, but somehow are surprised by the brutal consequences of our activities. i'm not exactly equating plate tectonics to global warming, but apart from the number of innocent lives lost in this Japanese Tsunami, we are consciously dooming millions of others to as unfair a fate by our other selfish endeavors. i do, however, equate the severity of the repercussion ten fold.

upper level of the manhattan project.
i came across these other two images of a barbosa+guimaraes project that confirmed for me that what i had wanted to do was indeed possible, contrary to what the contractors whined about..

evoque
two images swiped from yesterday's surfline article on the first contest at burleigh heads back in the 70's.
cheyne horan on top with a pretty burly carve being on a single fin. think this was before the whole star fin episode. such a critical transition of momentum fitting perfectly into the arc of this pocket. there are a few stellar moments like this made throughout time whose photographs will always remain burned into our retinas. another i can think of is a similar moment and position by tom curren at backdoor in the mid 80's.
the lower image during the same contest, eventually won by michael petersen, just brought back so many memories of backlit green-blue barrels i'd seen growing up. in town, yokohama, secrets...
funny how thought evoking these two photos were to me.

magic
“Magic never ends; it just waits to happen again”.
- an interesting thought borrowed from magicquiver.
