Is there, at society’s core, an intrinsic sense of order that prevails?
Or, is it the other way around? Chaos is the primary force and People merely create pockets of Order within it; you carve order into the realm of randomness and disorder.

Is it a trick of the light, dust particles, a digital glitch or as some people have said to me....paranormal phenomena...?

You can get them on 35mm too, but it mainly occurs on digital in my experience. Sometimes, theres loads and other times, theres just one HUGE one.

Extensive analysis and experimentation from myself indicates that sometimes, a light out of shot is involved (i do rock & roll photography mainly but also do scenic and portrait) but it is not always so when i reel off the same shot in the same position a split second later... I've tried taking pictures of disturbed dust particles and they do not create this 'orb' effect....sometimes, it appears to be totally random, like theres nothing that triggers it off.

Any suggestions or theories on this, and how I can prevent it? Thanks.

if thinking that it's art makes it so, can i nominate that cloud as art?
is it only art if i modify it in some way? what if i film that cloud and then project it as a hologram?
is it only art if one of the guardians of art have validated it by their approval and recognition.
is the concept of art meaningless?
is it all an ego racket: ie is there no difference between climbing the greasy pole of art as opposed to climbing the greasy pole of money?
arent art and money interchangeable?
dont the wealthy patron-ize art
and arty patron-ize money
all you need is the media to create the unholy trinity!

Sartre theorized that all meaning in the world is self applied and therefore false. He backed up this idea by writing plays that worked out in completely unintended, and counter intuitive, ways for their protagonists.

My thought is that yes sometimes things don't work out the way we expect, but most of the time they do. That is why we make such assumptions of meaning.

As Sartre backed up his ideas with examples I will do the same. Think if a highway. Hundreds of us humans driving at speeds well beyond anything we can realistically live through in tons of mettle plastic and fire. If we were really so alienated from one-another I don't think such a thing would be possible.

Rather I theorize that multiple subjects have the ability to actually communicate and connect in meaningful ways.

What are your thoughts on this?

Besides simply using the catch-all phrase surrealism?

Many years back I got the idea to work in this 'style' from looking at photograph negatives. With negatives the colors seem to be inverse and I thought 'why not reverse and/or alter the normal colors most artists use?' After a lot of trail and error (it ain't easy to sketch out figures to paint on a black canvas) I've come up with what I think are cool effects. It's not exactly photonegative art now but it was born from the concept.

The problem is I'm clueless when asked to 'label' this style. Would you like to take a shot at doing so?

It's a truism that it doesn't necessarily have to stick to a regular tee tum tee tum rythm of unstressed and stressed syllables, so what does it have to stick to? To put it another way is there such a thing as a line of ten syllables that is definitely not iambic pentameter? If so, how would you tell?
