Glints lead to vision | Document | 2004-01-30 | 2004-10-10 | 2004-01-30 | |
Written after looking over the Norton Anthology of Poetry, and getting a general impression of how what people have written poetry about and how they've written about it has changed over time. It also incorporates a thought summing my experience in the summer of 2003, but which also applies to more than that. | |||||
You cocooned in moving matter | Document | 2004-01-19 | 2004-02-16 | 2004-01-19 | |
An incantation for those travelling the lands where the most significant human structures are strips of pavement (or aeroplanes, or trains...). The inspiration for this occurred when crossing (on foot) the College Avenue overpass across Interstate 8. I was a sole pedestrian above ten lanes of highway traffic (I recounted the lanes: approx. 17, two of which belong to a less busy road parallel to the interstate) walking along a bridge about six lanes wide. On the lane closest to the sidewalk, traffic entering the highway is slow or stationary, and I can gaze at the occupants through their windshields. | |||||
The Grand Cathedral-Building Project | Document | 2004-01-03 | 2008-03-05 | 2004-01-03 | |
The grand project we've all been looking for is to make the question, "Where are we going as a people and what is your part in it?" answerable by yourself. Some thoughts along that line follow. I know what I'm here to do: to listen to the silence, and to listen to others who listen to the silence. | |||||

This is a web version of the post to FriendsOfColin list. I encourage everyone to share what they've learned three or so times a year, and this is my attempt to do that. If you start doing this, please put me on your list! | |||||

How to bicycle into New Orleans | Document | 2003-09-21 | 2008-03-05 | 2003-09-21 | |
On the adventure cycling southern route, there isn't a spur into New Orleans. Since I'm not yet canoing / kayaking, this page is for information on bicycling into and out of New Orleans. Google searches did not help me find which bridges into New Orleans can be cycled, so perhaps this page will change that. (Another city that could use a page like this is NYC / Staten Island, though adventure cycling has a route for that) | |||||
Colin's current philosophical framework (anarcho / neo primitivism, with an eye out for the integral), and its development | Document | 2003-09-20 | 2008-03-06 | 2003-09-20 | |
I've been influenced by John Zerzan, Derrick Jensen, Tom Elpel, Tom Brown, Dorothy Freed, and others writing about anarchoprimitivism/neoprimitive/simple ways of living. Here I share some thoughts and links to work that have encouraged me in my current path. I'm also aware of Ken Wilber, whose philosophy may suggest a different direction. | |||||

"Asheville Band Travels Through North Carolina on Bikes" and The ACRC Recyclery | Document | 2003-09-01 | 2005-06-13 | 2003-09-01 | |
Bands seeking to leave the car behind on their tours keep popping up. Pete (stickerguy.com) has a label he's been trying to get to tour car-free. Well these guys (the deadthings) have actually done it! Not only that but they help run the Recyclery at the Asheville Community Resource Center on Lexington Street in dowtown Asheville. If you need to do some work on your bike, stop in there and volunteer and I'm pretty sure they'll let you use their tools. | |||||

Carfree zionism? | Document | 2003-06-23 | 2003-06-23 | 2003-06-23 | |
It seem like no one (not even I) wishes to encourage other carfree people to move to their town. An exception may be Portland? Perhaps a car-free zionist movement would excite us more. | |||||
