Default Re: Anyone know of a live interview of AstralWalker?

I just want to comment that I blew past this post last night, and that I agree with it and probably would have used it to say much of what I said if I'd seen it. I want to second the idea that Josefine makes about the artwork and packaging of the event. I thought it was very distracting to include all the groovy photoshopped "astral light" pictures, and also to use gigantic fonts, etc (what is with that anyway?). The pages take a long time to load and it takes forever to read through the thread.

I'm not saying Nexus 2012 is a waste of time, becuase it is interesting and the seed of what might be a grand idea, but it is a waste of time to spend hours reading through what could have been stated clearly in a couple of pages.


A couple sidebar comments-
To piers2210: no, it's not korean, just an old buckeye thing I've been carrying around. Also, since I'm new here what's with the overbearingly concise "expletives deleted" programming? I'm surprised y'all are so comfortable being treated like 8 year olds.
Josefine's discernment skills are top notch, but I can even see an agenda in that. We all have agenda's don't we.
However, I think it's all a wonderful process if we bring it all out of us without compromise, full clash. That is the only process that will really allow us to tell truth from lie. All of us carry memes that have been planted and unknowingly further them. Only this exchange can identify them as such.
Regarding the way the thread looks, yes it's scrambled, but the summaries and it's translations make up for that.
I'm no friend of overly photoshopped pictures or gigantic fonts, but if that is what people think is needed to express their emotions, I think one should not scrutinise it. Too much 'professionalism' kills the fun.

Regarding the 'censorship' of swearwords, I find it funny as well. I'd never do it but in order to be polite I'll adapt.
However, I think the positive end of this is that one is challenged to find words that precisely describe a feeling or a dynamic instead of just using the omnipotent f word or its friends.

Seeding the notion of 'being treated like 8 year olds' is as much a programming trick of suckering us into pride as the 'censorship' itself is.
