Ley Lines

[Abster]

It can be hard to tell tone on the web. I prefer to err on the side of taking people at face value if I'm not sure if they're joking.

So we're agreed then - twaddle?

[Glastonlocal]

why is it twaddle?

the festival wouldnt exist without the ley lines. That is an absolute fact.

Some people are just unable to see things from any other perspective than their own tedious, predictable angle.

Best example I can find but how do you explain all those stones in a nice "neat" line? they were put there for reasons I can't explain.... Far more believable than this "god" the church speaks off

[glasto-worker]

Wasn't the Pyramid originally aligned with the ley lines before it was rotated?

Time for some art intervention. This piece is called 'I stand alone...at one with the Ley Lines.

is that your work yog??

[russycarps]

Unfortunately not. I couldn't draw a human figure to save my life. I'm not sure why but a lot of my work (for work see shite) is made from electronic parts and industrial bits and bobs. That said I have a 'piece' right next to me which includes some of the epidermis of a pythons skin which I bought off ebay for £5 (taken when they shed a layer of skin naturally, I hasten to add). I have manneqins in the house and in the garage. My next major (in terms of time consuming) project is to cover the whole of one of them with some, if not all, of the 50,000 small rivets I also bought off ebay, for £20. I also have an array of polystyrene heads which I have transformed.

To conclude, I'm more of a piss artist than a true artist. Mind you, people who come to the house have said they really like some of my stuff, but they might be being polite, or were plastered drunk before they even set foot through the door.

sounds interesting, I love the sound the rivet-covered figure.

I take my hat off to any form of creativity. And I include in that creativity of the mind. Like, for example, a willingness to believe in things like ley lines.

[Yoghurt on a Stick]

..... or maybe were a bit worried about the gun pointed at their head?

[Abster]

Yes, I too admire those who are creative - well, in the field of the arts anyway.

I'd really love ley lines to exist. Wouldn't it be fantastic. Unfortunately I don't think they do which rather puts a damper on things, and upsets the wannabe hippy in me.

[Yoghurt on a Stick]

I've got that dreadful song in my head now....

Anything exists, you just have to believe in it for it to exist ok Unicorns, dragons and pots of gold at the end of the rainbow are another matter entirely...

Good luck with your next art project... I have a hard enough time sanding down a pine cupboard and painting it!

[Abster]

Not sure what song you refer to?

Thanks for the best wishes on my next art project. I might post a photo of it on here once / if I finish it.

[russycarps]

The festival wouldn't exist without the belief in ley lines surely.

What's the difference in believing in them and belief in a deity?

[russycarps]

And god?

[UEF]

Without alchemy, we wouldn't have chemistry. That doesn't stop alchemy itself from being mostly or all twaddle. (Water diviners from the healing fields may disagree... or are they all accountants at this time of year?)

[Ommadawn]

You've got the wrong bloke - I have a passionate hatred for guns, bullets and shittery of that ilk. In addition, I do not care if somebody were to say my art is shite, juvenille, pathetic etc as I do it for me first and foremost. Don't get me wrong I'd like others to like it but if they don't then so be it. I'm too long in the tooth not to know that you can't please everyone.

Apologies, I think I went off on one there and failed to see the humourous side of your post which is only just now sinking in.

No worries. My post was definitely in jest. In restrospect it could be seen in bad taste - sorry.

[Yoghurt on a Stick]

I apologise in advance...

[Field Commander Jefferson]

Interesting topic this, love anything esoteric like this.

Has anyone read this, has been sitting in my 'to read' pile for ages will get round to it sooner or later

[Abster]

Fucking hell. You did try but there are no words that can prepare you for shite like that. I'll accept your apology though as it's not your fault.

[Thisboxisempty]

Dose anybody know of any other festivals that run down the same ley line ??
