Third Uncle


I've had a particuarly frustrating 24 hours of masonry misfunctions and failed photoshop dreams. The masonry is something I can knock down and redo...
The photoshop frustration is the results of trying to aim too hard. I then remembered a quote by Brian Eno.
“ Instead of shooting arrows at someone else’s target, which I’ve never been very good at, I make my own target around wherever my arrow happens to have landed. You shoot your arrow and then you paint your bullseye around it, and therefore you have hit the target dead centre."
The music is Third Uncle by Brian Eno from his premier solo record from the early 70's, Here Come the Warm Jets. I was in two bands which covered this piece of music, a personal all time favorite
