A HEIGHTENED NEW YEAR OF CREATIVITY
By: Iris P. Concepcion
"Happy New Year To All My Facebook Network Friends. I am starting the year by honoring my ascendants. I have thus conceptualized an idea in honor of my father that I hereby baptize as GUTS CONCEPTS, an independent and flying advertising arm of the universe without having been listed in the stock market. The vision revolves around this idea: I start with an object and visualize it for a heightened use that shall benefit the world. Let us say, a stone, clay or wood. I shall shape them to fit the natural habitat and have them exchanged with other natural patterns that would enhance rather than dull the natural and Godly surroundings. I have found an office for this using the stereo, Interlude/Radiowealth design of my youth. Here, discussions are used with biblical allusions, literary metaphors and symbolic meanings. The motto of this group is thus capsulized under this single line: I Do Not Copy Since I Fully Trust The Functions Of My Memory And Mind."--Myself Posting A Tweet ON The Second Day Of January, 2555.
Back in the old days of my extremely engaging childhood, the idea of a stereo was mixed by an inventor with a perfectly made wood. Last Christmas, I ventured in Satun, Thailand and was surprised by a log cabin quietly illuminating a vision of Noah's Ark. It bore the wood of my stereo youth, with its evenly tuned bass and tenor switches. I was no longer astounded. I had grown up in an environment with fairy tale books bound with sash and elegant caricatures.
The swimming fishes in colorful hues navigate the ponds in front as biblical quotations are debated by a circle of men with world visions in mind.
I would love this meeting place to be adorned by huge birds on the rooftop with swaying wings, placed in wooden clips as immensely grafted fruits adorn its lobby. Technology gadgets and junk food are not allowed in this area. It is a place of gathering for debates and exchange of innovations, ideas and concepts. It was here that this writer cum inventor had conceptualized a chair the shape of a bag. My rough drawing of the prototype is not much to look at but a shot putt athlete can, perhaps, save me a change for the eventual realization of this quite exciting take on a furniture fixture. I thank this blog for marking this as mine.
Like Richard's knights of the round table, the participants are given simple objects like a shrub or a vegetable and have their still life forms transmute into greater particles. The discussion must start on how these objects are going to grow into modern elements.
It was also here why this writer was baffled why the present news anchors would separate the woman delivering the entertainment news from the main newscasters. She would be standing up like a discarded mouth head and I never understand this divide. In my concept, the main anchors shall be seated on a round table and should only get the zooming shots when their respective stories are featured. The visuals shall cascade on the right side of the frame.
Even my airport is different. My hangar shall look like either a duck or a bird (even my planes have beaks), shaped like cradles. The main airport is in massive, white wings. The flying pattern (airplane) shall land on the hangar and shall mate with the lower portion of the pattern (cradle). My airport towers would look like cartoons with eyes luminiscent of windows.
(I had posted this as a tweet on my Facebook site too: I No Longer Wonder Why A Ship Is On Top Of These Buildings. My airport is all white and patterned like eagle wings in crystalline white with airplanes looking like ducks. They will land on a duck-patterned hangar with the beak as the final parking space. The other half of the flying pattern (plane) shall be consummated with the landing area (lower portion of the animal pattern). Welcome to GUTS CONCEPTS.)
My bus terminals shall have brown-eagled wings on the roof with bark trees separating the buses underneath. My buses must look like zoo animals to blend with my tree-filled highways.
No, I do not do Korean songs in my concepts nor innovate scrubbing gadgets. I have friends who can contribute something to the repertoire of worldly technology who can make the functions of do re mi sound like this: &&&& DO, RE, MI &&&&.
Happy New Year to all my readers.
