inspired by a dream of a school house…I was walking through a multistoried brick schoolhouse. As I walked through the hallway I would peek into the classrooms. Some of the classrooms had toddlers in them and some had teenagers and some had much older people. I peeked in the last room and this figure was at the head of the class playing a flute. The students were all chubby little mice and they were leaping and climbing all over the old fashion school desks.  The Krishna figure was smiling slightly but then suddenly clapped his hands loudly and said “If you do not take your seats you will never move on to the next class!” There was a lot of scurrying and all the mice headed for their chairs. After that I just wandered on but the rest of the dream had nothing to do with what I wanted to draw.

The Synaptic Samurai

Synaptic Samurai

Synaptic Samurai This was inspired by a dream I had after reading Rim by Alexander Besher................................................. Set in the near future where virtual reality has dominated the economy and popular culture (much like today’s internet), commercial space travel is commonplace, and orbiting space hotels surpass the complexity of even the International Space Station, it follows the story of former psychic detective Frank Gobi and his son Trevor as they solve the mystery of a VR crash that leaves millions of people in a trancelike state.................................................................. ink drawing on 9″×11″ sketchbook paper.............................................. The Synaptic Samurai…for when your message must really get there (faster than) overnight!.............................................. Synapse Synapses are essential to neuronal function: neurons are cells that are specialized to pass signals to individual target cells, and synapses are the means by which they do so. In my dream, instead of bicycle couriers there were Synaptic Samurais. They were in charge of delivering messages from the unconscious to the conscious. Sometimes they fought great (and messy) battles in the brains of their masters. They did not always succeed in delivering their messages uncorrupted by other signals................................................. There was no Synaptic Samurai in the Rim novel…but I wish there had been!

ink drawing on 9″×11″ sketchbook paper coloured on computer
This was inspired by a dream about Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. The dream switched from Alice to a guy trying to get through the mirror. After that the dream just plain fell apart it got so confusing…involved The Doors, me living in St. Louis (I don’t) and an earthquake that knocked the baobob tree in our backyard (no…we dont have one) into the roof of our house, after which the people living in the tree let my cats loose and I had to chase them. Man…I’m tired!
Break On Through by the Doors
You know the day destroys the night
Night divides the day
Tried to run
Tried to hide
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side, yeah
We chased our pleasures here
Dug our treasures there
But can you still recall
The time we cried
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Yeah!
C’mon, yeah
Everybody loves my baby
Everybody loves my baby
She get(s high)
She get(s high)
She get(s high)
She get(s high)
I found an island in your arms
Country in your eyes
Arms that chain
Eyes that lie
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Break on through, oww!
Oh, yeah!
Made the scene
Week to week
Day to day
Hour to hour
The gate is straight
Deep and wide
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Break on through
Break on through
Break on through
Break on through
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
