Educational video on the overthrow of Hawaii for the neurodivergent people that didn't have the energy to read the article I posted a few months ago.

NEW MAP: Australasia 1889: Samoan Crisis (20 Aug 1889) https://buff.ly/2xWdEMe In the late 19th century Britain, Germany, and the US competed for Samoa due to their investments in its plantations and its strategic value as a coaling station. In 1887 the Germans intervened in the islands to make their favored chief king, provoking a civil war. In response, the US sent three warships to Samoa, which faced off against three German warships in Apia harbor. The crisis was brought to an inglorious end when a cyclone hit and wrecked all six warships. #australasia #history #welovemaps #map #1880s #1889 #americansamoa #august #august20 #australianhistory #france #germanempire #kingdomofhawaii #hawaiiankingdom #marshallis #nauru #newcaledonia #newzealand #newzealandhistory #samoa #britishempire #britishcommonwealth #westernsamoa #samoancrisis #imperialism #vanuatu #wallisandfutuna #maps #newhebrides #hawaii (at Apia, Samoa) https://www.instagram.com/p/BofAOtRhiO9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=10tzl601ntvou

I was painting this week. I use the phrase “making another pass” to describe painting on a painting which was “unfinished”, or even “finished”. Not to be confused with “recycling” in which a “finished” work is reused but the imagery is mostly, or completely, obliterated. Then there is “86’d” which is (at least in this case) old restaurant jargon for discarded. Of the 11 paintings in my Ho’okolonaio series from a year ago, 10 were already recycled from other series. This week I can report that none were recycled but 6 did receive another pass, 1 of which was radically changed enough to require a new title. Ironically the only non-recycled piece of the group got 86’d. I did collage a few of its eyes onto another painting so it wasn’t a complete 86, but still it’s gone. This post is “Ali’i ‘I’iwi” oil on wood, h 11” x 11”, 2019 and, like the others I worked on this week, I mostly like, so it’s safe, at least for now. Many artists work this way but not everyone approves. A question they might ask: is nothing finished, is nothing worth preserving ? But I’ve never cared, in fact it feels good to change or destroy things I make, even things I liked. My biggest regret about moving to New York is not having any way to burn things when I get the urge! It’s all pointless anyway. #hawaii #hawaiian #hawai'i #colonization #hawaiianindependence #haole #liliuokalani #kingdomofhawaii #nycpainter #nypainter #newyorkpainter #newyorkart #newyorkartist #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #nycart #brooklynartist #volcano #lava #pacific (at Windsor Terrace, Brooklyn) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu2IpNLFK3A/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2giyrcc74k6r

As I share this panorama of the summit of #MaunaKea 🏔, the highest point in the #KingdomOfHawaii, the words of the Zen philosopher #AlanWatts come to me: ⁣⁣ ⁣ “…Let’s suppose that you were able every night to dream any dream you wanted to dream🌛, and that you could, for example, have the power within one night to dream 75 years of time, or any length of time you wanted to have. ⁣⁣ ⁣And you would, naturally, as you began on this adventure of dreams, you would fulfill all your wishes. You would have *every* kind of pleasure…And after several nights of 75 years of total pleasure each you would say “Well, that was pretty great. But now let’s have a surprise, let’s have a dream which isn’t under control, where something is gonna happen to me that I don’t know what it's gonna be.” ⁣⁣ ⁣And you would dig that and would come out of that and you would say “Wow that was a close shave, wasn’t it?”. Then you would get more and more adventurous and you would make further- and further-out gambles what you would dream. And finally, you would dream where you are now. ⁣⁣ ⁣You would dream the dream of living the life that you are actually living today. 🌀 ⁣⁣ ⁣That would be within the infinite multiplicity of choices you would have. Of playing that you weren't God, because the whole nature of the godhead, according to this idea, is to play that he is not. So in this idea then, everybody is fundamentally the #UltimateReality, not God in a politically kingly sense, but god in the sense of being the self, the deep-down basic *whatever* there is. ⁣⁣ ⁣And you are all that, only you are pretending you are not.” ⁣⁣ ⁣⊂ Tat Tvam Asi ⊃ ⁣⁣ ⁣Much gratitude to @ninjacake90 for inviting me on this adventure to the summit late last month, even if it did necessitate some running down the street on my part 😅🙏 #swipablepanorama (Photo credit by me though) (at Mauna Kea Summit 4205 M Above Sea Level) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC1utgxlUtr/?igshid=5az0pdnprbyl

Ko Olina, HI - back in 1887 the #KingdomofHawaii, during the reign of King #Kalakaua, enacted “An Act to Promote the Construction of #Railroads”. The Act, among other things, allowed for the granting of railroad right-of-way over government lands to #railroad companies for depots, stations, and related structures. This was to bring people out to the sugar cane plantations. Now the #hawaiinrailwaysociety on #Oahu #Hawaii runs the old #train on these #traintracks as #hawaiianrailways. The train goes from #ewa through #kapolei and #koolina to #nanakuli. The original #route continued north up the #western #coast. #contrast #blackandwhitephotography #blackandwhitephoto #blackandwhite #bw #instablackandwhite #bnw_planet #bnwphoto #bnw_greatshots #bnwphotography #bnw #bnwlife #bnw_zone (at Ko Olina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAJ-ep5Fr4O/?igshid=oyt14q1czgr4

Twilight of the Kingdom of Hawaii

GlitchexYT

In 1893, Hawai’i gave birth to her daughter, Hawaiian Republic or Moana Leilani on August 21st. While she was overjoyed at having her own daughter, Ka’iulani knew deep down that her daughter’s birth just confirmed that she would not be around much longer.

Credits!

My most recent Pineapple/Volcano/Tower/Canoe came out great! The warm t-1 clay hue on the Canoe bottoms and poking through the blues and greens is just gorgeous. To explain the form........ umm: last year I tried to make an outrigger Canoe to go with my Hawaiian theme, a shell, an aloha shirt, a pineapple, etc. But the clay “outrigger” part drooped. I first pictured supporting struts, like a suspension bridge, but that evolved into a volcano cone. So, two Hawaiian icons in one. I made the first Volcano/Canoe. (It took two tries, the first broke as greenware) My other themes include Airstrike explosions and puffs of smoke so for the next Canoe I thought I should have a large smoky explosive eruption coming out the top. But since I made the volcano so big in the first place a big smoke would have made it all too heavy. Lightbulb: create a pineapple top as a metaphor for an eruption. The result was still too heavy and drooped in the firing. Also I broke some leaves, and a canoe, so I trashed it. The next version was smaller and came out perfectly, and I nailed down my glaze combos which are basically the sea and sky. Yet another theme is high-voltage transmission towers and, having just made a nice porcelain one, I decided to add that into the mix, which is also an echo of the original suspension bridge idea. The result is more tower that volcano but I think the clay body’s earthy tone is what’s so beautiful about this last piece. #hawaii #hawaiian #hawai'i #kilauea #hawaiianindependence #kingdomofhawaii #newyorkart #newyorkartist #contemporaryart #nycart #brooklynartist #pineapple #volcano #lava #pacific #ceramic #ceramics #sculpture #handbuilding #clay (at Windsor Terrace, Brooklyn) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs1C5aTFWEA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=112230rsxd61l
