“Boxing is my real passion. I can go to ballet, theatre, movies, or other sporting events... and nothing is like the fights to me. I'm excited by the visual beauty of it.

“There are many ways in which people are made aware of their power to believe in the supremacy of Divine guidance and power: through music or visual art, some event or experience decisively influencing their life, looking through a microscope or telescope, or just by looking at the miraculous manifestations or purposefulness of Nature.” PeopleWayBelieveArtMadeAtheismInfluenceEventsDivineGuidanceManifestationVisualsMiraculousSupremacyTelescopesMicroscopesVisual ArtDivine GuidancePurposefulness Author:Ernst Boris Chain
“In my photographic work I'm generally attracted to places that contain memories, history, atmospheres and stories. I'm interested in the places where people have lived, worked and played. I look for traces of the past, visual fingerprints, evidence of activities - they fire my imagination and connect into my own personal experiences. Using the analogy of the theater, I would say that I like to photograph the empty stage, before or after the performance, even in between acts. I love the atmosphere of anticipation, the feeling in the air that events have happened, or will happen soon.” PeopleLooksStoriesFeelingsHappensPastImaginationMemoriesMy OwnFireHappenedAirStageEventsActivityEvidenceEmptyPerformancesTheaterPhotographerPhotographAtmosphereVisualsAnticipationMy ImaginationAnalogiesPersonal ExperiencesFingerprintsEmpty Stage Author:Michael Kenna

“What appear to be the most valuable aspects of the theoretical physics we have are the mathematical descriptions which enable us to predict events. These equations are, we would argue, the only realities we can be certain of in physics; any other ways we have of thinking about the situation are visual aids or mnemonics which make it easier for beings with our sort of macroscopic experience to use and remember the equations.” ThinkingWayUseRealityRememberCertainSituationEventsEasierAspectValuableAidsArguingPhysicsMathematicalVisualsDescriptionEquationsTheoreticalTheoretical Physics Author:Celia Green
“I think that it drives from an emotional connection with everybody that pulls you through all of those events, whether it's the events or what would be more the action, or I guess the visual effects side of it. So it always starts with me from - emotionally - 'Why do you care about the people who are going through what they're going through?' Because it takes a hell of a lot to put them through that. So you better care for them when they're doing it.” PeopleThinkingWould BeCareActionSidesHellEffectsEventsEmotionalConnectionsVisualsEmotional ConnectionVisual EffectsDo You Care Author:Len Wiseman
“[DMT] raises all the questions in a hurry. It's so intense and so oriented toward the other and the visual and the hallucinogenic that it isn't really like a drug. It's more like an event that you ran into. You just came around a corner and there was the unspeakable.” EventsDrugRaisesCornersIntenseRanVisualsUnspeakableDmt Author:Terence McKenna
“I want to show the event at the very moment it takes place.... My body must be anchored to the ground and seek the best point of view, without any visual taboos. But then, at the heart of the event, my effort is to disappear, I introduce a distance that borders on indifference.” WantHeartMomentsShowsBodyViewsEffortEventsDistancePoint Of ViewDisappearBordersIndifferenceVisualsIntroducingTaboo Author:Luc Delahaye
