D.: Cabanne ask me also: „Nevertheless you believe in yourself?” and I answered: No.*

Realometer: A text is vessel.

Jab: A book is a vessel which carriers vessels. Rhyming is a sort of trimming a vessel.

Jab: Words are like waves. Listening to words, speaking them out loudly, reading or writing them we adapt to unstable conditions.

Realometer: This is no longer stable. Climate shift, volcanic ashes, financial conditions in the gene agroculturual industry … all this highly destabilizes the frame work of farming.

Jab.: Yes, the very foundations of dwelling are shaken. Therefore dwelling and living are forms of navigation in uncharted regions.

Jab.: Being in tune equals being part of a wave, of surfing within a greater movement. A surf board is already a vessel. A text is vessel, when you read or write; an image is a vessel, when you make or look at it (an exhibition is a harbor of different vessels). It all starts with leaving.

Realometer: Starting or beginning? Start sounds decisive; beginning carries notions of flux, of feedback, of several components that activate or detain themselves viceversa.

Jab: Henry the Navigator asked others to start journeys of discovering. Others had to leave the stable land of their dwelling. Henry acted within a special temporal space. Navigation was necessary in order to maintain future stability of his country. So he acted with a vision of temporal change. The will to change is principal. This will is based on a relation to time and space. I wonder about analogies to our live and dwelling, today: We are based in a head farm. We buy, set and grow seeds. This includes already time management. But we remain withhin rather stable space and time limits. By the way Henry’ s discoverer were searching for the christian kingdom of St. John the priest. St. John’ s kingdom and its military forces should become allies in the christian battles against the saracenes.

Jab.:We should change the name of our quarter. What about Head Vessel ? Every start begins with a sensation of uncomfortness, with the will to change, to leave stability.

Mag.: No, changes start because of a  good feeling, of being in tune.

Here a service on Heads in the Nuclear Industry:

Head I

(Concept of a Future High Pressure – Boiling Water Reactor, HP-BWR
Frigyes Reisch: Nuclear Power Safety, KTH Royal Institute of Technology
Stockholm, Sweden)

Reactor vessel head and reactor internals

Head II

(U.S. Cedes Capability for Largest Nuclear Forgings As the world prepares for a new age of nuclear power, demand rises for ultra-heavy forgings to build the reactors. Here’s a closer look at the reasons that the U.S. can’t deliver the supply. By Peter Alpern)

Fabricating a nuclear reactor vessel head. Seven of the components of such structures are forgings that weigh over 500 tons. Nuclear-plant builder Areva is installing this fabricating capability in the U.S., comparable to what it now performs at a French plant.

The last post (Head as a vessel) on this blog was 1572nd post in this blog. Googling  1572 leads to SN 1572. The entry begins with: When Tycho Brahe was on his way home on November 11, 1572, his attention was attracted by a star in Cassiopeia.  Wikipedia speaks of Tycho’s Supernova … It burst forth in early November 1572 and was independently discovered by many individuals.

Very Hungry God calls the idea of the human head as a vessel and reservoir in question, since the buckets are completely empty.

The materials of Gupta’s sculptures, utensils in everyday use in India, are also traditional attributes of the gods. As such, they are useful for spiritual orientation. His sculptures point to the ambivalent status of instruments that structure the relationship between Man and his inner world as well as his outer world. This inner world is considered by traditional Indian culture as a transit station. The artistic thematization of instruments and everyday materials as in Gupta’s work is sculptural and therefore visual-spatial, yet it can also be time-based and appeal primarily to the ear instead of the eye.
