Nonverbal is a very loud form of communication.

| Henna Timanttimetsä

It is how we dress, how we use our faces, our hands, ways of carrying ourselves, looking, how we look and what we look at, pay attention to in people. A living being is a nonverbal statement of present moment and history of that person beginning from sex to ethnic background. A statement in time, in now and what has been, what has happened to that person, what he/she might be about. Women are masters of nonverbal communication. Thinking about how well we acknowledge it that we are doing constant observing and manipulating and are observed and manipulated, that our every gesture is a message and how much we pay attention to signals we pass forward is a matter of having been born into a culture that pays a lot of attention to appearance. We trust the first impression. What our friends say about that person. Strange thing is which I have noticed is that people think other people do not register how they are watched and observed. We like to belittle the other the one who is being observed. What kind of information is collected of us by looking is the foundation of our culture. It is a very sophisticated and evolved system of survival and bonding to notice little details, accept or dislike. We depend much on whether we dislike or not. I’m not sure do we consciously think why we dislike and is it justified.

Even the smallest things one might think do not matter make a difference. It is the banality, the animal, the hunter in us that pays attention to what the opponent might be doing and what does that other want and what does it mean. It is a brilliant form of learning by observing which makes our eyes an important tool. Action and reaction pattern in which those who think are very original and clever are actually normal mainstream group of people repeating the same signs, patterns, ways of reacting and doing which themselves make it easy to know how people think and how do they react to certain things. To know how people pay attention and what are the things get their attention. We like to think we are very special and unique. In some ways we are of course which makes our clinging to a group approval odd. Interpretations are not difficult to accomplish knowing how much we want acceptance. It is so simple that is actually clever. It is easy to know that this is not the case of exact science but somehow results are striking, very. Knowing how a similar kind of group of people think, how they keep their group dynamics and how the group keeps intact in its originality of course.

This is the very issue in cases of assumptions, thinking you know and passing on wrong information which is conducted due to any type of nonverbal communication. People communicate all the time, but to be absolutely sure what did she mean it is good to talk and ask. That is how people get information that is valid (hopefully) and not hanging in the air. Get the record straight.

How do we intellectualize the nonverbal and what is the intellect there in the first place? It is how specific analysis we are able to make. What do we make of it.

”Scientific research on nonverbal communication and behavior began with the 1872 publication of Charles Darwin’s The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals. Since that time, there has been an abundance of research on the types, effects and expressions of unspoken communication and behavior. ”

HOLOCAUST. I heard you got over it. Sorry I cannot help of laughing.

| Henna Timanttimetsä
It is with us, it is not leaving us no matter what you do. How could one avoid it? By making sure it does not happen again. Germany, it is not your heritage only and you do not get over it probably never. Because it is good that you do not get over it. It has affected me and I talk about it if I wish. It has its effect still as brain of Europe got whacked. Holocaust has had the most terrible impact on the whole continent, continuing far to the future because we carry our history whether we like it or not. It is strange the demand for discretion what comes to killing mass of people. Hush now, it’s a national shame. Yes there is this silent rule that one does not approach the subject with people whom it has effected closest. A painful piece of history and supposedly is not any of my business. Let’s talk about nice things. Yes let’s. Isn’t it exactly that silent fear and discretion that partly made it happen? It can be something that cannot touch you, something that does not concern you, killing, fanaticism, fascism and my opinion. To talk about European history with people who have nothing to do about it other than that it is their near history and maybe they know people who experienced Nazi Germany. Those born innocent into this wicked world.
 

Why am I talking about this is because I experience and sense fascism in Europe very strongly. Funny thing is people like to deny its existence like they deny racism, sexism, hate and the necessity of change on attitude level throughout all the continent. It is the same thing as Europeans conquered African continent exploiting it and till this day without taking much responsibility over damages caused to African people denying immigration and refugees from entering Europe freely today. Most problems caused in African countries are caused because of imperialism and abuse by Europeans. So Holocaust happens all the time. It is among us. It is absolute brutality of man, especially white privileged man. To me much has not changed. So instead of getting passionately mad at me for saying this try something new like compassion and empathy.

What I know Germans like to remind other nations of their national shames. Grow up, do it now. Your heritage is kinda heavy and binding.

Feel the Hate

It comes back to you.

Safety of repetition

| Henna Timanttimetsä
Safety of using strategy that has resulted well in the past and the weird outlook such patterns make especially visually annoy me, strike me and over and over again it is a pleasure to break a pattern of dusty security. Not it just annoy but scare me to stay put and not make something new. There is strange binding element and relationship between marginal and the center, coherence there is that new must be objected, resisted, it must have trouble and loathed. Such norm strategy manifests itself in areas that have to play it safe because of big money and high expectations. Because we cannot take any risks to make a change in how we act, that would mean jumping in to the unknown which might hurt. Because we must succeed otherwise we will be laughed at, abandoned as losers. To be laughed at what else is there to be feared? Fear of losing and being left alone are ones that drive the world of people. Most surprising is that the same fears drive the world of art. What is making art other than constant jumping, hopping around, sweating, bathing daily and bouncing as much as you can. Reaching out with hands up to the sky, falling down breaking my ankle, crawling in the dark, making a damn mess. And laughter and the lonely path that one is obviously born to. It will make it so, because need of it and it is made to look like there is something wrong..with. Artist that has flaws, what an artist. Artist now is a business man who hides his flaws and sells his work. He. And she must be he, him, because it is a world of men who sell.
Therefore systems that willingly hide, prevent change, look down on and do not dare to make new because it may scare some of us and them are completely out and lost.
Do they get it? No. Because idea of thinking of being progressive and hip without being so is contemporary blindness.

The happiest country equals happiest people, because people equal the nation?

| Henna Timanttimetsä
Measurements used: structures of society and how they function, structures of thinking and whose thoughts are listened to and accounted for, structures of how people manage at work, in everyday life, with each other and themselves. Position of women and children. How willing people are to help each other and how they react to strangers, the poor, their elders, the ill, ethnic groups, any kind of difference there may be. Is difference appreciated or shut out? How tolerant the whole of society is and is it willing to blend, mix and contribute to welfare of all its people. How equality is seen, equality of whom and compared to what. Is it just lovely talk or reality? What kind of possibilities people are given or do they have to struggle enormously from day-to-day to survive. How afraid people are?
Feeling of security and stability, ability of a nation to maintain security and stability economically, socially, environmentally, mentally. State of fear people have to live in. What are the things people are afraid of?

Happiness is something that tends to pass us by after briefly having met. It would be odd if something was not wrong. Perfection is thought to be equal to happiness. We tend to talk about happiness, look for it, pursue it, compare and prize. Is my happiness same as yours? It is momentary as we are bound to our emotions and guided by them. It is therefore a bit misguiding to search for ultimate happiness for example through wealth and possession, because it is a state of mind which can be got closer to by learning to know first oneself and then others. Knowledge of what is purpose and meaning of life brings happiness, sure. Knowledge of meaningless and purposelessness brings despair. Everything has its purpose we must think. We have difficulty in accepting insignificance, smallness and fragility of ours. In human perspective the scale is important. How well my meaning is appreciated by others and is my meaning meaningful for other people. Do I matter? One is always in relation to others. For me happiness is my relation to myself first, my relation to my insignificance.

Insignificance is an interesting term. Insignificant how and what is the insignificant? It has to do with meaning of an individual, purpose of that individual, individual in relation to other individuals, insignificant ones in mass of insignificance. According to this theory life has no meaning other than what one makes of it. Idea of nothingness which is all. It is senseless and has no logic.

Oh what, adult content on my feed? It is possible, because mostly your bourgeois insights bore me.

Just read about prudishness while giving head.
Yes it is a thing to worry.
Strange contents of social media
and what should be thought about it.

Cuties at the mall

| Henna Timanttimetsä

 

Fixed air. How to make weather? Respiration of all. All in one breath inhale and again empty our lungs without thinking.

| Henna Timanttimetsä

To laugh and dance like spiritual guide, shaman finding altered states of consciousness and understanding the connection between human will, faith and the unseen, know we are the force of nature humbly, wisely and that there are those who are more powerful than us. To communicate with those powers of earth. To impress and tempt spirits who make the rain for us to live. We live to impress ourselves. Rain comes as it wishes.

What are we doing now? Why do we dance now? Do we trust our guides, scientists and thinkers who know what moves the physical world. It is strange how we are now effecting the weather and we are forgetting to respect spirits of nature. We say there are none. There are plants and animals, ecosystems. Should we know why this all is and why we think it is all for us. Is there a reason or just coincidence?

(A person who makes the weather, someone called bird of the ill weather. Person who has bad karma or just bad attitude towards life and brings it on everybody like weather.) How affected we are, and yet not. Staying unaware and needy makers of change.

To use weather as a verb that makes us and makes us make. The ultimate molder of earth and how we make our living.

The more
exited we get the more we produce carbon dioxide, Spiritus Sylvestre, wild spirit. Fast breathing, sweating and steaming.

Climate at high altitude is thin. Thin air.

Am I suppose to think like an entrepreneur? Does it help or give direction to what kind of art and writing I do?

| Henna Timanttimetsä

This is the current and has been ever since I went to art school the issue how to monetize art, skills and ideas. It is also big part of becoming an artist to learn to market oneself.  To be an artist is to make a living by doing art. What kind of art would I be doing if I let market guide me. I would let the notion of what sells dictate what I do. But Henna you have to put a price tag on your work, it might help. To me it is the lamest thing in an exhibition. I turn away, sorry. Keep your ideals and market. To make money I could place ads on my sites. Sell space for companies. Aren’t there enough ads as it is.

As an artist I eventually as I present myself become a product. I have a message, frame and a name. Skills and ideas. An artist has to raise interest, be an interesting investment, be seen and noticed. My art pieces are unique items. Everything is for sale. My uniqueness is sold. One has to make a living. But one is not an artist, if one does not make any money. It is that simple. Is money that defines our work? Is money that gives value? I know it is a case of product thinking whether one chooses to make products or not, because we live in the world of products and merchandise. We are hungry to succeed. It is good to pay attention what is to succeed, is success measured by money and if so why is that?

I think there is the art market, sides of the centre and then there is the marginal, which isn’t even trying to lure buyers, please anyone’s eye. Marginal lives out of outsider status and freedom of it. That is what makes walking on the wild side interesting. Is it pleasing oneself only or looking for alternative ways of doing and saying? Probably all that. Then it is not a service, but is still art.
