Some links and a little story for you to chew on...

Bill Viola is one of my favorite artists. His photo and video imagery and the sensory space that he creates, are some of the most vivid and intense experiences in the art world... so profound... so accessable... and so readable on many levels and layers. Check him out!

Meditation - Where is God
HE WEEPS FOR YOU
know that the world is a mirror from head to foot,
in every atom there are a hunder of blazing suns.
if you cleave the heart of one drop of water,
a hundred pure oceans emerge from it.
if you examine closely each grin of sand,
a thousand atoms may be seen in it.
in its members a gnat is like an elephant
in its quarters a drop of rain is like the nile
the heart of a piece of corn earns one hundred harvests,
a world dwells in the heart of a millet seed.
in the wing of a gnat is the ocean of life.
in the pupil of the eye a heaven
what though the corn grain of the heart grain
be small
it is the station of the lord of both worlds to dwell therein.
