[Inexplicable images from generations ago invite us to restore the lost
sense of immediacy. We follow the founder of the Theater of
Spontaneity, Jacob Moreno, who proposed stringing together "now and then
flashes" to unfetter illusion and let imagination run free. The images
we have collected for this series came at a tremendous price, which we explained previously.] |

Here's a precursor to Kirsty MacColl's song " In These Shoes?" The caption reads, "Not in these shoes." From Fun magazine, 1879.

Here's an alternative to "I do": "I forgot my condiment can." From the "C" Battery Book, 306th F. A., 77th Div., 1917-1919. Speaking of weddings, see our Collected Lost Meanings of Wedlock. Why lost meanings? The definition of “marriage” has become hotly debated of late, to the point that the word has become “increasingly unmentionable” (Catholic Herald) or even “has no meaning at all” (Family Policy Institute). It’s been said that only through loss can there be gain, that only through loss can we truly grow and understand what is at stake, that only through loss can that which is beautiful be found. As the poet Joseph August has noted, “Only through loss can we glimpse the deepest meanings, / hints and flashes whispered from below / elucted as from underwater, deep.” The collected lost meanings of wedlock might surprise even those who would otherwise be considered well-informed. It's the perfect gift for one’s betrothed, or for a wedding planner, or for anyone contemplating matrimony.

The text reads, "The secret to getting back on one's feet lies in simple inversion. Cats famously land on their feet by using a pinhole to project an inverted image." [For the Wild Swan.]

"We have found a strange foot-print on the shores of the unknown. We have devised profound theories, one after another, to account for its origin. At last, we have succeeded in reconstructing the creature that made the foot-print. And Lo! It is our own." —Arthur Eddington, qtd. in Cosmic Trigger, Vol. 1 by Robert Anton Wilson
Footprints in the Portmeirion estuary. Photo dedicated to Gordon Meyer, author of Las Vegas: Underfoot.
