Even wandering the web. I always end up seeking & organizing my finds in thematic waves. I would imagine that should someone track my Wednesday web wandering posts over the next year, one would get an unexpected glimpse in to my psyche. Compiled facts, visual images &/or ideas, posted in groups, forming an Escher-esque optical illusion of my mental patterns.

All of that pseudo-psycho-self-analysis leads to this: today's web wanderings, all about simplicity & balance.
Simplicity. I needs it~*
I love of these 43 ways to simplify your life, but I'm particularly partial to #s 15, 24 & 30~*
The balanced rock sculptures of Michael Grab-- relying solely on gravity. How awesome is that-- a real, visual definition of balance & simplicity.
Occam's Razor. The philosophic version of simplicity-- & a useful principle in the study of history~*
I found this incredibly amusing-- professional studies that demonstrate the power of simplicity-- it actually has been tested and proven to make a profound difference, all in ways you might not think of.
And lastly...
...audio simplicity~*
Now breathe.
The work week is half way done~*
Hang in there!
Hang in there!
Cool stuff! I love Escher and I just watched the movie Contact again over the weekend which features Occam's razor.
