Thoughts on America
An Artist Economy
2025.09.28
Sunday, September 28, 2025
Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
At it again. O/
Welcome back.
Just some thoughts on dreams and spirit and purpose and beauty.
Some comparative AI pics for embellishments.
And to help the programs watch their language.
A couple weeks ago I began using a few different AI models to create the images. Always the same prompt, sometimes vastly different images.
It's a case of AI mirroring humanity. Every sentence I write is translated and understood in a new way based on the reader.
On You.
Hello again, btw.
Visual Artists, Painters, Animators, you are more necessary than ever.
Please don't view AI image creation as a threat to your livelihood. It's just the opposite.
This goes for all Artists in every field.
AI can't make an image like Picasso if Pablo didn't first.
AI can't write a symphony like Mozart if Amadeus didn't first.
AI can't write a poem like Wynn if I didn't write one For You.
At some point, (and it's a great Sci-Fi Thriller plot idea) AI is going to be starving for Artists, for new information, new dreams and ways.
We're a generation or two away from an Artist Economy.
Best get your kids into the Arts now for reasons of job security.
Now's the time to start bolstering Arts in our Country for the sake of our successful future, culturally and economic.
Computation and Memorization give way to Imagination in terms of practical Life Skill learning.
That's the coming shift in human evolution. Our schools require a reassessment.
How to formulate a better prompt for Claude or Grok, Ms. Copilot or Gemini is a better use of classroom time than memorizing when The Battle of Waterloo took place.
...
Looking ahead waiting for the sunrise...
Dawn.
Spent sometime outside with Abe and a moth the size of a mouse near a light fixture on the house.
Moths like so many people always head for the brightest light, the biggest spectacle.
Like Cancel Culture comments, the porch light flashes on and moths and people flock to the sight.
Eventually the Sun also rises and the truth also shows.
There's veracity in sunshine, honesty in each ray.
Moths and misguided humanity, the light that feeds the foliage of every oak and evergreen feeds what's just and true.
Pixel light isn't enough to sustain life itself.
We all require sunshine.
All truths, eventually, come to light.
Look to the sky today, say a quiet thank you, and make wonderful this wonderful day.

Same Prompt: Create an image of a classroom of robots looking at a painting on a chalkboard in the style of a magical cubism painting.
There’s that story again. The same one we were talking about the other day. Remember?
The one that had you tapping on the glass like it was a tambourine and the jokes you made regarding the weather and drug addicts and homeless people.
Did they know how to swim because the rain was coming down in buckets, so there was nothing to hold-out to fill with handouts?
You laughed over that. Saw it on The News.
Not The News but someone talking about The News after The News.
And didn’t see it. Heard it. On a podcast.
A podcast on political values and how the world is going to shit and how it’s not even safe to drive your car out of the supermarket parking lot without someone in a face mask holding out a bucket made in China for you to throw in a George, or an Abe, or a Hello! Made His Week Hamilton.
Maybe he ought to start a patriotic bucket factory, The Fuck It Make a Buck Make a Bucket Factory.
Assembly line workers in Spangled Red, White, and Blue uniforms. Clean Diesel pumping through the air. Double Minimum wage for all!
Local buckets are twice as much now and that times three. But we all have jobs, mostly. And overpriced buckets with nothing but stuff and junk and extra to put in The Made with Pride Right Here in the USA Empty Containers.
Enough room for a small trash can for the backseat floor. Something to toss your face mask into on your way home from the supermarket.
No longer buckets for uncomfortable stop lights. Buckets are too expensive for a hobo to steal. Besides, a hobo's bucket is not a safe bucket when it’s an expensive one.
Not a long for life hobo that peddles at a stop light full of hungry shoppers looking for somewhere safe to dispose of their disposable masks with a too expensive Made with Pride Right Here in the USA Empty Bucket.
Maybe a straight from the bank drive up I-pay QR SKU NFC scanner for bucket-less street corner hobos.
No one carries loose change these days.
George and Abe and Hello Hamiltons are too dirty and too maybe infected.
Toss them in the can on the backseat floor with the used masks.
Cash is King, after all.

Screen Your Screens

Monday, September 22, 2025
Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
How's the day? O/
Daydreams and what it seems.
AI, dreams, Art, a hound dog story or two, you, you, you... themes for a morning journal.
Sometimes Love shows up, sometimes Beauty.
Things we don't talk enough about.
Things we don't advertise we talk about all the time, at least.
On with our show...
...
I wonder how AI would analyze a dream.
How do the images etched in the human unconscious speak to data servers?
Deep end of the thought pool morning on the way.
Plunge into Jung, Palanatir!
What can be seen there?
Data mine the cloud of human thought called The Unconscious.
Emerson called it, "The Oversoul."
Modern Psychiatry calls it, "The Unconscious."
Internet lingo calls it, "A Cloud."
Consciousness is just what we choose to do with what we find there.
All the images and stories and science and what they inspire and lead humanity to do when placed on their screens...
It's a great plot for a Science Fiction Thriller:
To data mine the images that get the most clicks, the words and phrases that pay the most, to place what you want heard in the company of those images and words.
Conspiracy theory or technological crowd control?
...
"Where's the bright, cheery, Wonder Fell Sunshine, Wynn?"
- Favorite Reader
It just showed.
My phone screen notification sent me reeling in thoughts when I woke.
We're not angry at each other America. We're angry at images and words people and corporations are paid trillions of dollars to make sure we see and hear.
Talk with each other about what's really happening in your day to day life. Share it. Build on what's best about us to build what's best for us.
Your friends, you family, your freedom to have a dream of a wonderful life and have a secure place to build it, are what having a Country at all is suppose to afford.
If The News isn't about what's happening in your life, if it doesn't match your day to day reality, then it is not News: It's something else.
There's a whole lot of something else on the air waves and Internet these days.
"What does someone stand to gain from me reading, watching, or listening to this?"
- Reader with The Right Question for a Hopeful Humanity
If the answer isn't 'to perform the public service of enlightening people on what's occurring in the world to help further the human race,' then it's not News.
Please change the channel, or call it entertainment.
You deserve better than to be manipulated so a few can profit financially.
Take care, consider your sources, screen your screens, and make wonderful this wonderful day.

To Bring Them to Life
2025.09.01
Monday, September 01, 2025
Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Happy New Tag Day. O/
September means Autumn.
And in New England that means Color.
Clouds look down through tree-top kaleidoscopes at the landscape.
Autumn in New England, when Mother Nature reminds the Country what Color really is.
Hope all's well with you.
On with our show...
...
Woke and went for daydreams.
It happens.
So much of an Artist's Life is spent bringing dreams to Life, sometimes we feast; we replenish our stock.
It's why your creative friend tends to drift away at times.
They're stocking up, ordering supplies.
When you ask them what they're thinking about, they can't say for sure.
That's to be expected.
They're not dreams meant for what talking can do. A song, a story, a canvas is needed to bring them to life.
...
The Sun's up painting all shapes with color. Light and heat and vibrations of sound... my thoughts go 'round.
How to talk about color without politics getting in the way in the U.S. of A?
Why let history get in the way of what's Beautiful?
We do it everyday.
We ought to accentuate what's Beautiful about ourselves... what's good.
Wishful thinking from Mr. Wonder Fell?
No. It's medicine.
History was so awful sometimes. Let's only remember it to keep it there.
There's a better way to talk about Color, America.
For all of us.
I'll start sharing it soon.
Take care, enjoy some sunshine, and make wonderful this wonderful day.

Inspiration for a Troubled Nation
2025.08.26
Tuesday, August 26, 2025
Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Rise and shine Sunshine Valentine, your day's not gonna live itself. O/
Dawn shows her sleepy shine; there's Autumn embers in her entrails of light. New England's Colorfest called Fall is on the way.
And we're:
On with our show...
...
How's your cup of coffee, cup of tea?
Hot or iced, sweet or bitter, hope you enjoy it.
Words of comfort, inspiration for a troubled Nation?
If you find that here I'm glad, though the point is wonder.
It's in the title.
Science and consistency devoid of wonder is vain and sterile at best.
The World runs on magic.
If you can measure it with words and make it repeatable, that's called a spell not a Scientific Theorem.
Wonder, awe, a great gratitude to be alive.
Where is your grateful appreciation for the chance to live, to love, to sing anytime you want?
When did life become dry duty? Where's your wonder?
The Network News? The AM/FM dial? The right or left side of the aisle?
Mothers and Fathers of America listen up!
Teach your children their manners, then remember kids learn best by watching you.
Don't do anything, say anything, you wouldn't want your son or daughter to see you doing in your day-to-day work.
Do that America and we'll heal at a miraculous pace.
It's morality. Period.
How we treat each other.
Common decency, with common sense, isn't so common anymore.
This has to change.
What do We stand for? What moral truths are We saying We all share? Is this, this News Circus Spectacle, how We do America best?
If your child wouldn't understand the morality of your work, get a new job, or change how you do yours.
Words of encouragement for a wounded Nation.
We're beating ourselves up. Why? Because a few people paid to play angry tell us to.
Shame on us.
Our system of government can work when we all work it.
The media is not the means of governance.
The people are.
There are systems available, town halls for instance, that work.
Talk to each other with a sense of morality, of common decency in mind, shut off the News aimed to get you riled up to control you, and make wonderful this wonderful day.

Be a Solution
2025.08.17
Sunday, August 17, 2025
Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Hello. O/
Thank you for reading.
Sun's out, Sun's up.
Sun's all a shine... feelin' fine enough?
Good.
Hope all's well.
Here we go.
On with our show...
...
Oh, The News That's Not!
How to get past it and move on?
How to make a newsreel look like progress?
It comes down to what's mundane, comes down to the day-to-day doings of the day.
A scandal isn't what's happening; it's what happened, maybe.
It's also a very good sleight of hand trick.
If you're riled up about something that happened you're not paying attention to what's happening.
Want to heal the news?
Pay attention to Today's Business everyday.
If today's business has to do with yesterday it isn't about today, but it is a great video on your cellphone to hand your kid sitting in the grocery cart so you can get some peace, so you can get your shopping done.
Spectacles and Sensationalism are America's babysitter of choice for those we elected in power at present.
Pay attention to Today's Business if you want things to improve.
...
Bah... Wonder Fell is not meant for political purposes.
Artistic and humane reasons certainly, but not politics.
But the most humane thing to do right now is to give words of encouragement, hope, and guidance on how to heal our political landscape.
Shut off the spectacles and talk to one another.
Townhall meeting anyone?
Help what and where you can.
Stronger communities make a strong Country.
Right now some of the strongest communities are online rooms made for people to shout about things news agencies get paid to rile them up them about.
Your time can be better spent.
Small groups of concerned people in large numbers focused on specific community building tasks makes a Country great.
"What can I do about it?"
- Concerned Reader
If the best answer you can come up with is 'complain and condemn' then you're part of the issue.
Do something to help heal or stop complaining.
Healing means helping.
If you're not willing to help, you're not part of the problem; you are the problem.
Be a solution.
That's your homework.
"While being babysat with spectacles and scandals, the good citizens gathered together and came up with solutions and put them to work."
Have History say that. ^
This is what this morning wants to say: Be a solution.
Take care and make wonderful this still wonderful day.

Saying Something
2025.08.16
Saturday, August 16, 2025
Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Glad you're here. O/
Hope all's well.
On with our show...
...
An hour or so before sunrise. Cooler temperatures prevailed.
Abe's already been out, already grabbed a toy and ran around the yard to celebrate the heatwave's end.
Business here.
I will continue to use different AI software to create morning entry pics.
At least a minimum of two separate models everyday.
...
Dawn's first light, highway wooshes wake the atmosphere, lights on, game on, time for today.
With all the uncertainty, all the disarray online and in the news, I feel I ought to say something.
That is what Wonder Fell is doing: Saying Something.
What we focus on and feed is what grows.
Shift the focus from how bad things are to how good they might be, then use our might to make what might be reality.
We should thank the current news of the day for pointing out where we go wrong.
We've wondered for so long why things don't get any better, now we know.
Now we're fed the reasons on non-stop news reels.
There's right and there's wrong and there's where we're at America: The Middle.
How we do anything matters as much as what we do because how we do something is always part of the end result.
Our moments are the materials that make our days and all things.
Home cooking almost always tastes better than a restaurants: There's love in that.
War will never bring peace, it can only press pause.
Because how you do something, wage war or shout hate for instance, is always in the end result.
Compassionate acts of concern are the only way to truly make lasting and beneficial change.
I look at America today and I look at what We stand for and I see we're not standing for it, and I wonder how long we'll withstand it.
Truth and Justice in America, somewhere, became fair-weathered friends.
And there's fires in California, floods in Texas, DC looks more and more like the Capitol of North Korea.
There's no propaganda in these words just pointing out the obvious.
What's needed is a remembrance and redefinition of terms.
The Constitution is a Living Document suffocated by the neglectful sensationalism and theatrics at present, just like so many of our day-to-day 'entertain me' lives.
It's time to revisit The Constitution and Refresh the Page.
Freedom's definition in 2025 has grown through the lessons of History since that of 1775's.
Time We recognized it.
The important part is that we discuss what we're supposed to be, realize how we're failing, and fix it fast so the house doesn't fall down.
It's a moral document.
And it's long past due We reminded ourselves of our agreed upon shared morality as a Country.
There's more to life than feeling good, there's doing good too.
We're responsible for our environments.
It's not a lot of work; it's only a change of focus.
Compassionate concern starts with a 'Good morning we're in this together,' then we go about creating an atmosphere that best serves us.
It's not a lot of work; it's right living.
You care about your life so you care about others because they are a part of your life.
See, compassion can be seen as selfish when you think of it right.
Truly taking care of yourself means taking care of the world around you.
Accentuate and feed what's good and right in your life. Share it! Call it Good News! Watch it go viral!
We're starving for a reminder that we're so much better than the pictures we show ourselves.
Consider Wonder Fell some food to feed what's best about us, to help nurture and support a World made to help our best dreams come true.
Take care, share some Good News, dream how compassion can heal our News, and make wonderful this wonderful day.
