Come to your senses

In the Ukrainian language there is a word “схаменутись”, which in English sounds like “to come to your senses”. It sometimes reminds me of Chinese, when one word in one language conveys more depth than a few words in another. It’s like just kissing someone instead of a few words, conveying the whole essence of the thought.

I was wondering the other day if this isn’t my stopping point. Isn’t it the moment, isn’t it the environment? Aren’t it the people around me when I should come to my senses and stop searching? And here you can say that this is the beginning and the end. Because you can’t stop and stop life at some point. The world is dynamic. It decides what you will have and when and with whom. The world exists in many planes simultaneously, where each person has their own universe, the events in which affect other universes. To convey the idea more clearly – it’s like the moment when you study in college and you have friends, a company. Over time, you graduate and everyone runs away. The number of variables becomes such that you can’t physically continue to exist in the same plane. In this sense, it’s funny to watch stories from movies, when there is such a term as “college friends”, who interact even after a decade or a half. I wonder, do you, readers of this blog, have many friends from college or university? Huh?..

You can see the whole universe in a person or anything, but usually the more you see in someone, the further they become from you. So you should always keep some distance. You should always have backup options. You should always remember that the world is too changeable to believe in anything in the plane of time. And while some people think about how infinite the universe as a whole is, I narrow it down to the people around you, and try to understand how these small bodies work. Because only by understanding where it all begins can you find out how it all ends.

 

Only happy when…

There are several interesting facts related to each other. The first of them was that this song/work was dedicated to her. In the full sense. It sounded something like “I’m happy only when we communicate”. I guess I should admit it.

The second interesting fact is that I am still blocked on Devi. Yes, I got curious, I checked – now I am blocked. And for some reason this makes me happy. Because it connects all the dots and no “accidentally liked”. It’s convenient when you are not the one who blocks. So as not to save it somewhere in the lists.

The third is “replacement syndrome”. Because I completely replaced the person who disappeared from my life with others. With someone I communicate pleasantly and share a worldview. With someone we are mutually inspired by creativity, and this is valuable. I love them and what they create.

I have come a long way and am leaving this sadness behind. With a pure heart and a sense of completion. When a person doesn’t just appear in your life by some random chance. So…now I’m “happy not only when it rains”.

Jedi 2.0

In the meantime, I decided to finish my “Jedi” lighting for photos.

The project itself is old, but I still couldn’t bring it to a state where I could use it to the fullest. It is planned that I will have 4 lights (there are already 5) for each colour (yellow, green, blue, red) which will work separately. The colour of each is selected from the remote control, so there can be 2 red and 2 blue or some other composition. Each light consists of 1 meter of LED strip, aluminium profile. All this has a tripod mount, so I will choose the lighting angle myself. It will all be powered by a battery that I previously assembled, with a capacity of 240 Wh. So I will not be limited by sockets.

This is a more serious light than I used before and in the future it will give less noise in the photo. And that would be very good, considering the camera I am shooting with now.

P.S. pay attention to the second photo. How magically the light highlights the silhouette. I think I will use it. Especially if I do get more parts of the latex costume.

Attempt

Is an attempt a path to failure or skill? I don’t know…

Today I tried to weave kanekalon into a wig. Of course, trying to do it “my way”. From the side it still looks something, but I don’t really like it. It’s quite difficult to weave something with artificial hair. Although I think it’s the same with natural hair. So I postponed it until better times. I think a different approach to changing wigs is needed. This is firstly, and secondly, I still remember my desire to create my own “predator” style wig. So. This is not the end, this is just the first attempt.

I want unique images of characters that I will create myself.
