Exhortation Korner

Unending satisfaction in life's endeavors to you, Dear Entities.

For those of you who observe the Gregorian Calendar, now is a time to "ring in the new."

But if I may ask, my Entities, what is "new"?

With you?

With the universe?

Wasn't much new back when Greg developed that "calendar" of his.

Locked us into this linear time trip.

I should know--I was there.

For my earthbound Entities, do you feel a sense of continuity with each complete transit around the sun?

Does a duck know what a 401k is?

Stars are hot to the touch.

Cycles are a fallacy.

For your pennants, cut felt into triangles.

Isosceles.

Sharp apex.

Decoration is Entity's choice.

--Ambo Dais

Musik Korner

Happy Solstice, Kornerheads! Today we bring you an audacious audio recording from Chris Peebles. In it, Chris gives a dramatic reading of selections from his recently-released book number 16 stream over a nearly 17-minute original backing track of improvisational minimalist ambient avant-garde jazz. "jan/feb," as it's called, is part one of two of Jazz Phantazzmagoria--Peebles' forthcoming album due out January 2016. We expect this album to be a watershed moment for the spoken word sub-genre of the improvisational minimalist ambient avant-garde jazz genre. For optimal enjoyment, Chris recommends an earbud-type headset for the vector of transmission. Dig:

Video Korner: Sekwel Edition

Willkommen, friends and well-wishers! After the unmitigated success of our Ends & Pieces video this past October, we felt it our duty to once again delve into the annals of hitherto unused kreative video klips and ko-kreate something worth watching. Behold:

Korner Wisdom

Misery loves companies. Especially LLCs.

At The Kreation Korner, we value well-researched discourse on a variety of subjects--not just Kreationism. Any time our braintrust can be leveraged to assist fellow inquisitive minds in their quest for knowledge we're glad to help! We're not writing this post apropos of nothing--it is in reaction to an article from 2013 a staffer discovered recently on the Boise City Dept. of Arts & History website:

In the article, the writer gives a brief history of a local freight company who, at one time, occupied a railroad warehouse in downtown Boise which itself became a victim of the latest destructive swath of new development some years back. As it pertains to us, the article cites as one of it's main sources our own Chris Peebles' Loading Area blog. They even prominently used one of Chris' royalty-free photographs! The Kreation Korner and its family of affiliates are glad to support knowledge kreation on important subjects like urban history and intend to remain a free and public informational resource, all the while rocking your world with only the best in kreative kontent.

Exhortation Korner

We are truly stoked today to present a new kontributor to The Korner. All that is really known about this kontributor is their name--Rev. Ambo Dais. Some of us here had heard the legend of Ambo Dais--an enigmatic preacher walking the earth, dispensing wisdom, but remaining unseen and unknown all the while. Religious historian Sister Crispin describes Dais as "a unique star system in the constellation of elusive, ambiguously-affiliated avant-garde persons of the cloth. Think Jesus of Nazareth meets Aleister Crowley...at a service plaza on the Pennsylvania Turnpike." Imagine our surprise when we discovered a request for an occasional blog feature from such a notorious figure in our lowly inbox! We're confident this first installment will do your spirit some serious good, even if you're sorted amongst the most sekular of our staff and/or readers. May the splendors of Kreation become manifest:

Multitudinous good vibes to you, Dear Entities. The primary audience for this sermon are those participating to any degree in the dominant culture of the so-called United States of America, but, as in all things, universal lessons may be gleaned. 

I offer you a reflection on the so-called Holiday Season...

What is a holiday but a day?

What is a day but a measuring unit of time?

What is time but an ocean?

What is an ocean but a body of water?

Are not many of you, Dear Entities, composed mostly of water?

Are you, then, not an ocean? A unit? A day?

Is not everything everything?

Are not all entities, then, a single entity?

Meditate on these things for nine earth minutes, and then eat exactly four Pillsbury crescent rolls, Dear Entity.
