In my first post, a friend thought I was taking Ruby Cohen's name in vane. I went back and re-read what I had written. It did sound a bit disrespectful; but, that was not my intention. I was calling fire ..... fire.
She was a harsh and honest critic of the world. She had the chops, with a world of experience to back her up. Her reserved passion was a well of knowing, cherished by my fellow student as well as myself. We went to her with questions, like some kind of oracle. Sometimes we'd find what we were looking for and sometimes we'd get our heads served to us on a plater. It wasn't fatal, so we'd stick our heads back on and come back for more. She was a formative influence for which I am grateful.
Ruby was the life-partner of playwright and theatre artist, Samuel Beckett. The path they shared was a gift to the world.
Peace be with you Ruby.
COMPOSITION OF NOW: Premise: We write, produce, then act out the leading role in the play we call “Now.” The physiological timing of conscious perception is the production calendar, with the play of "Now" playing 1/2 second after "Now." Proposition: If we write our "Now," then why aren't we better authors and actors? A blog is like a backwards book. It starts October of 2011. Exposition given in the early posts are cumulatively helpful later. Thanks for your visit.
