Maravilloso

During the night, three of the world's most powerful LEDs (PhlatLightTM CBT 120 LEDs by Luminus Devices ) project intense color through the words, casting overlapping shadows in six colors on the landscape around the sculpture, the library wall, and visitors that pass by. While there are many ways to understand this phenomena, some purely aesthetic, one interpretation is that we are inevitably imprinted by the words and phrases of the written culture that has come before us. These words inscribe themselves upon us even before we are aware of what is happening. Yet, they strike each person differently and are always subject to rearrangement. One of our primary jobs and sources of pleasure as human beings is making sense of what came before us and leaving some of that behind. The library is a great place where that happens. [Alt from duplicate] --> A seething field of words could describe my mind as I grew up, going to the library as a child and bringing back a stack of books as big as I could carry. I read from all sources and often had many books open at the same time. This continued through my university years. As a more fully educated adult, I realize this field of words is the primary matter out of which I now create meaning for myself and what I use to attach new meaning if they are going to stick in my mind. I suspect that many children today are similar. Computers and texting have made reading and writing as important if not more so.
