MEZ: 

reiner, my creative heart seemed to do funny thingz when i first looked at
'current'....
4 some reason [don't know if u've pre-empted this viewer reaction
deliberatelee] the scene u've chosen resonates with me on a number of levels:

1)it has a distinctly common-yet-unfamiliar feel, like i could walk to the
edges of my town and find a similar scene there [without the architeXtural
L-ements obviously]..but still feel dislocated at the alienarity of the
landscape (specific fields and trees/vines etc)?
2)i am reminded of a childhood game of spinning around and around n 'round
until my head hurt and the whole world spunblurred at the corners
3)the pastel colours chosen for the background may also heighten this
childhood meme.ory base

Reiner: 

tomorrow belongs to yesterday
here belongs to otherwhere
but today is the day



the problem surrounded in 'current'
is a very actual but also timeless one
'the question' of the definition of myself
thru experience, thru life
and
in cyberstream there is this soul-body conflict
which has to be solved
(but not only there)
and
it is the problematic of collaboration itself
in which one becomes the other
and the other becomes myself

Christy: - au courant-

     Au Courant  


Je vous tiendrai au courant.

I'll keep you informed.
I'll keep you current.
I'll keep you in the flow, in the know.
You will be au courant.  I used to think this meant on the run, in the
course of traffic, in the course of the river.  But of course, this was
wrong.

It really refers to red currants in old French (well who would know, who
would be au courant with currants), groseilliers would be, of course.

Well, the current is taking me downsteam now.

Red stains everywhere.

We stamp out the currant essence as though we were making the finest
wine.

The tart, sweet taste....must run.

Alan: 

I've taught in Halifax a lot and am
familiar with the explosion, not that this is major content - but I've walked
the areas where the blast blew, and the fortress which stopped the blast, and
and and.
