Good Morning, Good Afternoon, Good Evening, wherever you are reading. 

Welcome to the 6th edition of the 2024 Richard Murray Newsletter.

1) The thirty-eighth of the Cento series.  A cento is a poem made by an author from the lines of another author's work. In the series I place my cento and a link to the other authors poem.

You will wither, on your own

No dogmas , rituals, or doctrines to obey

Religions whispered , urging me to pray

For every tale spun, a thousand more arose

I searched through temples, churches, and mosques

Believing fervently in visions of my youth

I'm glowing

"Ach schaut euch mein Gefieder an,

"Ich könnte es den Menschen zeigen...

Nur bei mir, da ist er nichtig,

Doch kann ich dir dann nicht versprechen,

das so herrlich leuchten an.

Das Meer ist blau, die Zukunft grau

"Oh look at my feathers,

"I could show people...

Only with me, then it is worthless

But then I can't promise you

that shine so beautifully.

The sea is blue, the future is grey

An Argument against media made in fiscal capitalism rmnewsletter rmaalbc aalbc penny dreadfuls leothefox
An Argument against media made in fiscal capitalism

People like Greenwood never seem willing to admit their problem. They want the community they live in to be based on some conduct code ,but are unwilling to call for it. While they know they live in a fiscal capitalistic community which by default breeds a primary profiteering culture.

Greenwood wants no criminal or illegal activity plus the dismissal of penny dreadfuls by individuals. That is what his words suggest. The only way that can happen in the fiscal capitalistic england of his time is for fiscally poor people to embrace their poverty with a smile and become devout to the rules set by various christian denominations.

Read his thoughts and tell me what you think?

highlights

Maker’s comment: This is a 50cc motorcycle I built as a hobby. It took about 15 months to complete, and I learned how to design, weld, and do electrical wiring on my own. The motorcycle weighs approximately 170kg and has a 3-pedal 6-speed manual transmission, with a top speed of 60-70km/h. I’ve ridden this motorcycle and covered 47 prefectures in 233 days, totaling 20,052.8 kilometers.

Maker’s comment: I am creating a marble machine that rotates the entire course to roll the ball. We will be showcasing avant-garde works, including the “reverse marble machine” where the flow of the ball is opposite to the norm and the “infinite descent marble machine” where the ball continues rolling without stopping, offering something unique that you won’t see elsewhere.

CENTO Series episode 6

And the banshee lilts her lamentations

trembling trees bow their hoary heads

and nature is anointed in tears of grief

for the lord of the land dies this night

And the banshee lilts her lamentations

Won't you share an enticing cup of tea

And I will admit I madly giggled

Steeped in ambient impossibilities

Or if you prefer to listen,

here is a recording with art, can you tell the Cento I made of my own work in the art? 

Witches Pendant 3d Model

It all began with a Witchtember, a daily art prompt challenge, entry. The prompt was necklace. Where I made the following. Can you tell the spell of the pendant or the meaning of the Banners of Arms? Maybe you can guess the names of the two clans.

Then, arcencieldigitalart made a 3d contest and so I made a coloring page, do show me your colors?

and with said base I made the 3 d model. It seems embedding from sketchfab isn't working in over-blog. So you have to click to experience the image volumetric. 

Do you think I need to do the whistling blade next?

Bulwer Lytton

I submitted my one sentence. I thought about it for a while. Even though they allowed multiple entries. I wanted to be more honest and give one sentence one go. I chose a story I am working on that makes me laugh as the inspiration. It ended the 30th of June so the time has passed to submit but they invite annually since the 1980s. Have at it next time.

Black Education in the USA was never...

bad. Black people, the community or most individuals, are simply financially poor and that comes with a reality no quantity of knowledge can undo.
