We live in sophisticated systems often best understood through psychological inquiry into inter-referential mythologies. The more we are aware of this process enough to participate in creation the more culture is made on purpose. I have practiced, am now, and aspire to be a better Culturesmith. This is a collection of existing evidence of public contributions to the culture-making process, with comments and original work from those who have asked to be represented here.

CCR exercise 01
Beyond the published analysis on the web, what's going on in this song? Lyrics for: Lookin' Out My Back Door |
Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch. Imagination sets in, pretty soon I'm singin', Chorus: Doo, doo, doo, lookin' out my back door. There's a giant doing cartwheels, a statue wearin' high heels. Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn. A dinosaur Victrola listening to Buck Owens. Chorus Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band. Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon Doo, doo doo. Wondrous apparition provided by magician. Chorus Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band. Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon Doo, doo doo. Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows. Chorus Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn. Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows. Chorus |
