Connected Moments

Sitting in a train - people looking at their micro-slab computers, platform view through the open door - a view of a late April warm enough to call forth memories of happy moments in summers past.  The doors close and the familiar-feeling connection with the past... stops?

The text above was handwritten into a notebook on April 27th, 2022... it was a moment full of atmosphere and meaning for me - but too brief (and perhaps too important) to photograph.  Looking for a photo to illustrate the moment, I came upon a photo I really like - that I took on the evening of October 12th, 2018.  In content, quite different, but similar in feeling to the moment I wrote about on April 27th. - Lyle (Hiroshi) Saxon

Time Travel - The Moment of Transition

People wonder what time travel via time machine is like... and I suppose the closest analogy is using an elevator.  You get in the machine, choose a number and after a wait, the doors open and you're there.  With the time machine, there are no visible doors since you are just materialized into the time you travel to.

   The trick with time travel is launching and landing in busy places full of motion so your sudden disappearance (when leaving) and appearance (when arriving) aren't noticed.  Fortunately the machine automatically slots you into empty space - otherwise the machine would be unusable.
   What does it look like?  It's really hard to photograph, but the above picture I was able to take when landing in the year 2000.
