A few words from Zeb


(from a recent email from Zeb...I added the image - MM)

Just to confirm, I do expect to attend tomorrow. It's about 2 hours drive, so not sure exactly when I'll get there, but probably on time. (No cell phone.) I could bring blueberries if that is preferable to cash. They are $20 for four litres at a farm nearby.One thing I regret is not to have visited the Goetheanum since 1974. I'd like to learn more about geometry and sculpture, as I have a hobby which combines platonic solid concepts and clay modelling in rather organic yet geometric morphs. I was always curious to try to understand the 'lemniscate' form that Steiner talks about. Also, in doing 3-d geometry, sevenfoldness seems the one thing that just "isn't", which makes me think it is more a concept to do with 'time', but I'm open to explore.

I had asked Zeb (after the fact) if it was OK to post his email...His response was very helpful: "My only objection would be to posting unimportant details, and so trivializing the time spent by those who read, and disguising our immortal beings."...Let's keep working away at this blogging discipline...
