Anyone interested in Automatic Writing?

Image
It's amazing in how many places, and how many kinds of places you can find examples of Automatic writing. The best place to search is Google of course. But there are many hidden corners where you'll find the beast lurking. One place to check is your junk/spam mail folder. Yes, there is a risk of getting viruses, but if you are able to turn off the graphics the risk is greatly reduced. But the risk is still there. So if you are ready to take a slight risk, you can see some really amazing examples of automatic writing. Try opening spam mails with deliberately non-specific subject lines. The subject lines are also small examples of automatic writing that you actually won't recognize as automatic. You can safely skip the ones that change the spelling of their products to get throught the spam filter. Try it and let me know if you have any success in finding anything. Meanwhile I'll be checking my junk folder more often :)

Badly Drawn Boy photo for my profile

Image
I couldn't find this photo on the net (I downloaded it from the net). So I just uploaded this from my computer and am using it in the profile. I just love this photo, coz it shows more of his wooly hat and beard than his face. Actually those are the things that are his trademarks. You won't recognize him if he was without his hat and shaved !! What more I like about the photo is the psychedelic feel to it. It is not very much like his music, but also not very unlike it. It has rich colours. I just think it's a great photo. I don't know whether it's a publicity still taken by a professional photographer or a casual one taken by an news photographer. It looks more like a professional one to me.
