Talking leads to doing and computing leads to talking and...

Circuitously and Roundly
It's funny how things develop. There are a number of blogs dealing with families and children and the difficulties associated with the tempo of modern day living. It seems some are having problems just coping with life and activities.
I have an audience there, but it's capturing them and, of course, there are some that really miss my point entirely and want to turn out budding little computer artists using more sophisticated programs and hinting at my own ineptitude.
Fascinating stuff in its own right but not quite on target. However I do claim to be open to suggestions from others.
Many are concerned with sedentary lifestyles and the damaging consequences, hardly a lobby group for the encouragement of even more computer involvement.
But this leads to that leads to that leads to this.... it's all very circular really and I'm trying to include the computer illiterate who may just be able
to assist with more pressing living skills at the same time as becoming more intimately involved with family disharmonies, which, if given the choice, they may well wish to avoid.
In parallel with this I am trying to provide them with some computer skills.
But ,by subterfuge, and in a round about kind of way the art can encourage
anticipation and activity and talking about problems in a less stilted environment.
One thing I know is that there are a lot of people feeling isolated because of
the inability and even the unwillingness to become even minimally familiar with computers.
Already I am becoming more aware of the realities of modern living and of the views of others as expressed in other blogs by different authors.
To-day's image is a very round one to fit the theme of this post. It is also quite simple but there would be many who would require quite an input of time to produce something similar.
Once again if you look at the image and let your mind take over it may well surprise you as to what you see.
That's relaxing and creates a certain harmony and the wheels of the clock turn round and round if you get my gist........
