Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
... maybe too high hopes... maybe I should cool down a little bit and stop pretending to be something I'm not. But each and every night, my head not me my head brights as a bunch of electromagnetic nerves tied up together and I can't sleep. ...and my head, not me, my head wants to write down this idea which drains off the filtering screen of the night...
And then I wake up in this mood of utter clairvoyance about a future of mine... ...and I call for the division bell to ring and I come to speak to the void above me and claim for an answer that never comes. Ahá! These people! They've so inside the idea of themselves being gods, they decided not to answer anymore... as gods do...

And why not?
Today I opened my blogger account and I found this link. Yeah, about monetizing my blog and all this shite... capitalism and so on... But then I though: alright, I sometimes write reports about books I've read and maybe someone is buying this book because of my recommendation --though I don't believe anyone actually follows this blog...--. And if this happens, and the seller things that me providing the recommendation is worth some cents... what the hell: why wouldn't I take the reward? Even more, if I don't, then the seller is profiting from my comments for free...
And so, since I like a lot Amazon because they bring you the books up to the door of your home quite quickly and at very cheap prices; I decided, I'm monetizing the blog a little bit.
To be fair with my self, my future self, and my self before; I promise I'll try to find also links to freely download the 'products' --it's kind of hard for me to say that some books are just products...-- I recommend :)

Kensington Gardens II
Just a quick correction to the post before! I told a scene was described in 2666, which I though might happen also in Jardines de Kensington. OK, now I've already read the book and this last is not true. This scene doesn't happen in Jardines de Kensington. Coming back to 2666, we can suppose the scene described in there involves the author of Jardines de Kensington himself!!
Also a comment on the book: it's great, I recommend it to have a great time reading. Of course, it's not 2666 :D!

On Dreams and Movies
Today I had a very featured Dream. I'm not pretty sure about the argument, but I remember that it included a mother taken away from her children because she suffered demonic -or angelic, which is the same- possessions, run-away adventures in a train, time travels... and a very mysterious final scene in which a 'half lizard'-'half white widow' ("lizwidow" now and on) came out the frame of a window while I was messing around with a fork on the spiderweb. I killed IT with the fork but couldn't avoid a quick short, sharp, shock -dig it?- in my finger. Then I awoke.
I won't waist any second thinking about possible interpretations (I did). This could be very self revealing, but it's a busy day and I've got things on my mind: so I'll focus on the technical details!! My Dream was of a high quality! It involved several complicated technical resources such as panoramic views, zoom into the spider -or elsewhere, just amazing zooms-, 'camera' changing to the point of view of the characters -thus we could say, I was not the main person... or I was all those persons at a time 'cause I was into them and knew their limitations and feelings-, ... At the same time, some fantastic elements were quite realistic (e.g. the lizwidow) and I would swear, in the moment this beast was about to show up from the wooden shadows of the window frame, there was some music straining the audience.
Here my question: were Dreams all the same during the history? I guess NO :) So: how were the Dreams of the people living in the DDR different from those living in the Bundesrepublik Deutschland? How were the Dreams of the Spanish people when they only had radios or could only watch TV in front of the store windows? How are the Dreams of the people living in latin america, where at any moment the worm -a lizwidow- can come and sweep all sanity away? How were the Dreams of the greeks? How would be our Dreams in the future, as we incorporate more and better special effects? I'm amazed about the possibilities a 3-D Dream could offer!!! Do rich people have more quality Dreams than me? I'd like to be rich for a night just to have a complete 4-D Dream with dolby surround audio!! Could a man be soo rich, that a nightmare would kill him?
