New Direction for this blog

This video has a sample from Graham Hancock and was drawn to my attention from Facebook , This blog has been of a personal nature and a personl forum for my own work and writings. I am also going to look at the art world , photography world music world and even venture into film, animation and media. I feel popular culture although stimulating is too contrived and the wrong people have the reigns . Education should not control or monopolise norms but be a subtle enhancement as opposed to a dictator ship of conventions. A voice inside me speaks and says don't let reality be the way people except it is, challenge authority and ask who the people are that  have the right to give  this power  - usually it amounts to an unmerciful amount of self aggrandizement and back slapping , nepotism and sheer abuse of power.

I Watched this song the day after watching the Eurosong final contest in Sweeden and was thinking of how different this music is to what was on that show. Alien almost to what Europeans think generally is a good song. This started me thinking. As I was saying this is way better then all the Eurosongs in my opinion but it would do poorly in the competition - its like really great photography or art being unrecognizable to contemporaries for the most part. I don't think Ireland is nurturing its talent properly. Great writers of the past bring people from all round the world to Writiers Week in Listowel , hopefully one day we will have hundreds of thousands of visitors to the national gallery to see our world class painters , sculptures and photographers - people that clearly see reality for what it is and can express it in an artful way.
