  1. The new house seems to have been built in a perfect west-facing alignment.

    We hated the dark hallway with the solid front door. We swapped it this week for a similar door with a window at the top.

    Behold! The new door casts a cross on photos on the far wall at sunset. The center of the cross seems to fall on the newborn babe in his parents’ arms.

  6. last few pictures before we move on to the next stage of the journey

    these are the rocks and markings that inspired the last few videos

    it was raining pretty much all the time so recording shakuhachi outdoors was tricky but i captured some nice moments in a church nearby - you can watch the videos on my IG page...
    more coming up soon...

    sounding out continues, in search of sacred sites, places of beauty and marvels of sonic architectures...

  9. It took longer than I thought, perhaps I had lost that wibbly wobbly stuff for some days. 😂
    But now I published my thoughts about the weird feelings of #time when we feel overwhelmed. And how to get our timey-wimey stuff back:

    Yes, we can debate now if wolves invented #StandingStones by marking and how you find your #tree. 😁

  14. Not quite #StandingStoneSunday but it’s a broad church, so here are a couple of photographs of the tumulus de Colombiers-sur-Seulles, the oldest surviving stone monument in the Calvados region of Normandy. It dates from about 4,000 BCE. The whole site has a very tranquil setting.

    The first image shows the entrance into the funerary chamber which is about 2.5 metres wide and has 6 remaining orthostats or upright stones. Charred and broken bones were found in this chamber on excavation.

    The second image is a wider shot showing the whole of the long barrow itself, which is impressive at about 60 metres in length, and about 18 metres wide at the eastern end and about 9 metres wide at the western end, nearest the foreground of the photograph. At this western end, there are two "blocking" stones which might suggest another chamber here, with its entrance here.

  27. Les pierres levées (orimbato) de Madagascar notamment très présentes sur les hauts plateaux (en région Merina qui entoure la capitale), étaient généralement des symboles érigés en pleine campagne entre les villages pour marquer les grandes décisions des anciens rois et sceller leur mémoire. L'abolition de la monarchie vit l'identité de ces rois et la nature de ces décisions tomber malgré tout dans l'oubli pour la plupart (David Graeber, Lost People: Magic and the Legacy of Slavery in Madagascar)
    Mais les pierres subsistent.
