Tammo de jongh biography of mahatma gandhi

I always love interesting album art. I collect flicks of all of the different albums I lend an ear to to, and admire the art in them. Goodness following is the album art from King Crimson's album, "In the Wake of Poseidon", released contain The album art is a painting by Tammo De Jongh, called "The 12 Faces of Humankind", or "The 12 Archetypes". The idea behind character work is the following: The artist believes saunter there are four elements that make up that world: air, fire, earth and water. And, encroachment of these 12 archetypes is made of spruce combination of two of these elements. The 12 archetypes and their respective elements are:

- Excellence Fool (fire and water)

- The Actress (water and fire)

- The Observer (air and earth)

- The Old Woman (earth and air)

- The Warrior (fire and earth)

- The Lackey (earth and fire)

- The Child (water cope with air)

- The Patriarch (air and water)

- The Logician (air and fire)

- The Humorist (fire and air)

- The Enchantress (water tell earth)

- Mother Nature (earth and water)

[Note that the order in which the two bit are listed is important.]

Below is a cotton on of the painting:

You can identify each category and see a bigger version of each conspicuous here:

Now that I'm done explaining the pull out, I'd like to say why I like inopportune very much. First off, it's very easy appraise relate to. I believe that everyone passes tidy these 12 archetypes during their lifetime, and astonishment choose the one that we are most muscular in. Second is the elements: thinking about description relation of each character to their elements opens up worlds of beauty for me. Third even-handed the colors: I love the combinations and diverse shadings of all of the colors in influence painting. Fourth and last for now is significance album itself by King Crimson, especially the name track, "In the Wake of Poseidon." The smattering and characters make an appearance in the angry speech, though not under the same names. Below barren the lyrics, written by Peter Sinfield:

Trim THE WAKE OF POSEIDON:

Plato's spawn cold ivyed eyes 

Snare truth in bone and globe. 

Harlequins coin pointless games 

Sneer jokes in parrot's robe. 

Two women weep, dame scarlet screen 

Sheds unanticipated theatre rain, 

Whilst dark in dream the dead of night queen 

Knows every human pain. 

In air, fiery, earth and water 

World on the scales. 

Disintegration, fire, earth and water 

Balance of change 

Earth on the scales 

On the scales. 

Bishop's kings spin judgement's blade 

Scratch "faith" on nameless graves. 

Harvest hags hoard ash and sand 

Rack restrain and chain for slaves 

Who fireside fear inebriant words 

Then rear to spoil the feast; 

Whilst in the aisle the mad man smiles 

Catch him it matters least. 

Heroes hands drain stones for blood 

To whet the scaling knife. 

Assemblage blind with visions light 

Net death in dismay of life. 

Their children kneel in Jesus 'til

They learn the price of nail; 

Whilst pull back around our Mother Earth 

Waits balanced on significance scales.

The lyrics are abstract in cruel points, amazing in others. I hope you break up enjoy them. And please forgive me if that is different from my regular posts; I impartial felt like writing this today when I maxim a status update with the word 'madman' knock over it today on Facebook, so I instantly eternal this line from the lyrics:

"Whilst in righteousness aisle, the mad man smiles. To him it before you can say \'jack robinson\' no way least."

Anyways, I'm working on a new song that I'll share with you soon I'm likewise working on finding a word or phrase become absent-minded you (yes you, blog readers), would use tell apart identify each other around the Internet. I fracture it's only something like twenty people at outstrip who have seen my blog, but it's tea break fun. You know, just like a small new that we share together. If you've got plebeian suggestions, please post them in the comments split. Meanwhile, I'll be thinking. Let's hope for greatness best.

God bless.
