TEAM TIME

So we have completely altered the look of our paper/tape installation. We'll discuss later what we all contributed. In the mean time, here are some creative pieces about 'time' from our group members.

Nate Besser- (He had a couple Walt Whitman poems)
Apparitions
A Vague mist hanging 'round half the pages:
(How strange and clear to the soul,
That these solid things are indeed but apparitions, concepts, non-realities.)

Going Somewhere
My science-friend, my noblest woman-friend,
(Now buried in an English grave--and this a memory-leaf for her dear sake,)
Ended our talk--"The sum, concluding all we know of old or modern learning, intuitions deep,
Of all Geologies--Histories--of all Astronomy--of Evolution, Metaphysics all,
Is, that we all are onward, onward , speeding slowly, surely bettering,
Life, life an endless march, an endless army, (no halt, but it is duly over,)
The world, the race, the soul--in space and time the universes,
All bound as is befitting each--all surely going somewhere."

Jamie Eischer-
an article called "Misuses of Physical Models In Understanding Time" by Eric Kincanon

the first part "Abstract" says this....
This paper argues that a misuse of physical models has led to hasty conclusions about the metaphysical nature of time. After an introduction to the philosophical structure of scientific inquiry, examples from Special Relativity and Time Asymmetry demonstrate these errors. The purpose of this paper is to call into question whether physical models can be used to gain insight into metaphysical issues.
The beginning says "It is not uncommon for researchers to consider physics when they study time. Though physics can five useful insights, this paper will argue that too much emphasis is given to the theoretical results of physics..."

then he has some parts highlighted, like ..."In misusing and misapplying physical theory persons studying time often make unjustified conslusions..."
"it is incorrect to say that time is the same as space."
The conclusion says
"Experimental data tells us much about the world, but there is a danger of misuse with the associated models and theories. Through the examples given above it has been shown that scientific models are useful for making prediciotns about reality but are not useful in gaining metaphysical insight. Physics models can help understand much about how the world will behave, but it is a misuse of these models to think that they give and insight into ultimate reality.They are nothing more that ink on paper heplping us fo find our way from one building to the other."

Haley Deffenbaugh- a poem from a collection of poems

A Call

Dusk its ash-grey blossom sheds on violet skies,

Over twilight mountains where the heart songs rise,

Rise and fall and fade away from earth to air.

Earth renews the music sweeter. Oh, come ther.

Come, acushla, come, as in ancient times

Rings aloud the underland with faery chimes.

Down the unseen ways as strays each twinkling fleece

Winding ever onward to a fold of peace,

So my dreams go straying in a land more fair;

Half I tread the dew-wet grasses, half wander there.

Fade your glimmering eyes in a world grown cold;

Come, acushla, with me to the mountains old.

There the bright ones call us waving to and fro--

Come, my children, with me to the ancient go.

Havilah Aos- contributed some pretty rad photos.. take a look see. (photo at top)

"Just the erosion idea and layers in these rock formations meshed well with our ideas and the forms we came up with. They are photos of the Sea Caves along the shore of Lake Superior in Wisconsin."

Linley Schmit-

Andy warhol: they say that time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.

Brian Tracy: There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing.

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven;

a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck
up what is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break
down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to

mourn, and a time to dance; a time to throw away stones, and a time to

gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

a time to seek, and a time lose; a time to keep and a time to throw away;

a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
