We experience the obliquity of our planet’s axis palpably, through the annual cycle of seasons, and this tilt also causes the Earth’s celestial pole to slowly revolve by 1º every 72 years, completing a full 360º rotation among a series of northern and southern “polestars” over a period of 25,772 years by a process known as the Precession of the Equinoxes.&nbsp;<br><br>Around 2200 years ago, the Greek astronomer Hipparchus (190-120 BCE) discovered the Precession of the Equinoxes by utilizing the observations that ancient Babylonian and Greek astronomers had gathered during the years 3942 to 1793 BCE, when the northern polestar had been Alpha Draconis. Also known by its Arabic name Thuban, signifying “head of the serpent,” the star occupies the “head” of the constellation Draco, a position that held lasting influence on human affairs. Several dragon-centered myths became anchored to the North Celestial Pole, regardless of the gradual precessional drift toward the next polestar, Polaris, in 500 CE.<br><br>In Hipparchus’s own time there was not a true polestar, yet myths of a dragon/Draco-centered north star lingered. One myth recounts the Greek goddess Athena hurling a dragon into the sky during a battle, where it became fixed to Thuban. In another, the goddess Hera places the dragon Ladon in the sky as a gesture of respect after its defeat by Hercules, whose own constellation stands victoriously on the head of the constellation Draco. Although outmoded by Hipparchus’s empirical studies, these myths nonetheless remained fixed in the popular imagination.&nbsp;<br><br>Nearly 1800 years later, the protagonist of Shakespeare’s play <em>Julius Caesar</em> claimed to be as “constant as the Northern Star, of whose true fixed and resting quality there is no fellow in the firmament.” Yet, there was no “true fixed” northern star during Julius Caesar’s reign (49-44 BCE). Is this a mere anachronism, poetic license, or poetic justice, since such a reference to a non-existent polestar would have made the populist Roman Emperor more fickle than constant? What stories will be told of Polaris and Ursa Minoris after 2102 CE, when the precessional drift moves on toward the star Deneb, in the constellation Cygnus (The Swan), in 9800 CE? And thereafter to Vega, in the constellation Lyra, from 12,000 to 13,727 CE? Will anyone be available and aware in 20,346 CE to welcome Thuban and the polar return of the dragon?&nbsp;<br><br>The interplay of these terrestrial and cosmic cycles might seem eternal. Barring a cataclysmic event, the Earth may indeed continue to revolve around the Sun every Earth year, and our North Pole may continue circumscribing its path every 25,772 years. Yet, our universe is constantly expanding, and the relative positions of our planet, our solar system, and our galaxy are ever-shifting with respect to each other and every other point in the universe.<br><br>Consequently, we never occupy the same point twice in time and space. Even as we take comfort and disquiet in returning to the sensations and memories of seasonal rhythms and phenomena, we hurtle forward, buffeted by the unknowable.

We experience the obliquity of our planet’s axis palpably, through the annual cycle of seasons, and this tilt also causes the Earth’s celestial pole to slowly revolve by 1º every 72 years, completing a full 360º rotation among a series of northern and southern “polestars” over a period of 25,772 years by a process known as the Precession of the Equinoxes.&nbsp;<br><br>Around 2200 years ago, the Greek astronomer Hipparchus (190-120 BCE) discovered the Precession of the Equinoxes by utilizing the observations that ancient Babylonian and Greek astronomers had gathered during the years 3942 to 1793 BCE, when the northern polestar had been Alpha Draconis. Also known by its Arabic name Thuban, signifying “head of the serpent,” the star occupies the “head” of the constellation Draco, a position that held lasting influence on human affairs. Several dragon-centered myths became anchored to the North Celestial Pole, regardless of the gradual precessional drift toward the next polestar, Polaris, in 500 CE.<br><br>In Hipparchus’s own time there was not a true polestar, yet myths of a dragon/Draco-centered north star lingered. One myth recounts the Greek goddess Athena hurling a dragon into the sky during a battle, where it became fixed to Thuban. In another, the goddess Hera places the dragon Ladon in the sky as a gesture of respect after its defeat by Hercules, whose own constellation stands victoriously on the head of the constellation Draco. Although outmoded by Hipparchus’s empirical studies, these myths nonetheless remained fixed in the popular imagination.&nbsp;<br><br>Nearly 1800 years later, the protagonist of Shakespeare’s play <em>Julius Caesar</em> claimed to be as “constant as the Northern Star, of whose true fixed and resting quality there is no fellow in the firmament.” Yet, there was no “true fixed” northern star during Julius Caesar’s reign (49-44 BCE). Is this a mere anachronism, poetic license, or poetic justice, since such a reference to a non-existent polestar would have made the populist Roman Emperor more fickle than constant? What stories will be told of Polaris and Ursa Minoris after 2102 CE, when the precessional drift moves on toward the star Deneb, in the constellation Cygnus (The Swan), in 9800 CE? And thereafter to Vega, in the constellation Lyra, from 12,000 to 13,727 CE? Will anyone be available and aware in 20,346 CE to welcome Thuban and the polar return of the dragon?&nbsp;<br><br>The interplay of these terrestrial and cosmic cycles might seem eternal. Barring a cataclysmic event, the Earth may indeed continue to revolve around the Sun every Earth year, and our North Pole may continue circumscribing its path every 25,772 years. Yet, our universe is constantly expanding, and the relative positions of our planet, our solar system, and our galaxy are ever-shifting with respect to each other and every other point in the universe.<br><br>Consequently, we never occupy the same point twice in time and space. Even as we take comfort and disquiet in returning to the sensations and memories of seasonal rhythms and phenomena, we hurtle forward, buffeted by the unknowable. Similarly, the stars and dust of constellations are forever drifting, coalescing, colliding and dispersing to gather again elsewhere. Every instant in the universe is simultaneously a return and absolutely unique.&nbsp;<br><br>—Robert Kirkbride</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph

We experience the obliquity of our planet’s axis palpably, through the annual cycle of seasons, and this tilt also causes the Earth’s celestial pole to slowly revolve by 1º every 72 years, completing a full 360º rotation among a series of northern and southern “polestars” over a period of 25,772 years by a process known as the Precession of the Equinoxes.&nbsp;<br><br>Around 2200 years ago, the Greek astronomer Hipparchus (190-120 BCE) discovered the Precession of the Equinoxes by utilizing the observations that ancient Babylonian and Greek astronomers had gathered during the years 3942 to 1793 BCE, when the northern polestar had been Alpha Draconis. Also known by its Arabic name Thuban, signifying “head of the serpent,” the star occupies the “head” of the constellation Draco, a position that held lasting influence on human affairs. Several dragon-centered myths became anchored to the North Celestial Pole, regardless of the gradual precessional drift toward the next polestar, Polaris, in 500 CE.<br><br>In Hipparchus’s own time there was not a true polestar, yet myths of a dragon/Draco-centered north star lingered. One myth recounts the Greek goddess Athena hurling a dragon into the sky during a battle, where it became fixed to Thuban. In another, the goddess Hera places the dragon Ladon in the sky as a gesture of respect after its defeat by Hercules, whose own constellation stands victoriously on the head of the constellation Draco. Although outmoded by Hipparchus’s empirical studies, these myths nonetheless remained fixed in the popular imagination.&nbsp;<br><br>Nearly 1800 years later, the protagonist of Shakespeare’s play <em>Julius Caesar</em> claimed to be as “constant as the Northern Star, of whose true fixed and resting quality there is no fellow in the firmament.” Yet, there was no “true fixed” northern star during Julius Caesar’s reign (49-44 BCE). Is this a mere anachronism, poetic license, or poetic justice, since such a reference to a non-existent polestar would have made the populist Roman Emperor more fickle than constant? What stories will be told of Polaris and Ursa Minoris after 2102 CE, when the precessional drift moves on toward the star Deneb, in the constellation Cygnus (The Swan), in 9800 CE? And thereafter to Vega, in the constellation Lyra, from 12,000 to 13,727 CE? Will anyone be available and aware in 20,346 CE to welcome Thuban and the polar return of the dragon?&nbsp;<br><br>The interplay of these terrestrial and cosmic cycles might seem eternal. Barring a cataclysmic event, the Earth may indeed continue to revolve around the Sun every Earth year, and our North Pole may continue circumscribing its path every 25,772 years. Yet, our universe is constantly expanding, and the relative positions of our planet, our solar system, and our galaxy are ever-shifting with respect to each other and every other point in the universe.<br><br>Consequently, we never occupy the same point twice in time and space. Even as we take comfort and disquiet in returning to the sensations and memories of seasonal rhythms and phenomena, we hurtle forward, buffeted by the unknowable. Similarly, the stars and dust of constellations are forever drifting, coalescing, colliding and dispersing to gather again elsewhere.

We experience the obliquity of our planet’s axis palpably, through the annual cycle of seasons, and this tilt also causes the Earth’s celestial pole to slowly revolve by 1º every 72 years, completing a full 360º rotation among a series of northern and southern “polestars” over a period of 25,772 years by a process known as the Precession of the Equinoxes.&nbsp;<br><br>Around 2200 years ago, the Greek astronomer Hipparchus (190-120 BCE) discovered the Precession of the Equinoxes by utilizing the observations that ancient Babylonian and Greek astronomers had gathered during the years 3942 to 1793 BCE, when the northern polestar had been Alpha Draconis. Also known by its Arabic name Thuban, signifying “head of the serpent,” the star occupies the “head” of the constellation Draco, a position that held lasting influence on human affairs. Several dragon-centered myths became anchored to the North Celestial Pole, regardless of the gradual precessional drift toward the next polestar, Polaris, in 500 CE.<br><br>In Hipparchus’s own time there was not a true polestar, yet myths of a dragon/Draco-centered north star lingered. One myth recounts the Greek goddess Athena hurling a dragon into the sky during a battle, where it became fixed to Thuban. In another, the goddess Hera places the dragon Ladon in the sky as a gesture of respect after its defeat by Hercules, whose own constellation stands victoriously on the head of the constellation Draco. Although outmoded by Hipparchus’s empirical studies, these myths nonetheless remained fixed in the popular imagination.&nbsp;<br><br>Nearly 1800 years later, the protagonist of Shakespeare’s play <em>Julius Caesar</em> claimed to be as “constant as the Northern Star, of whose true fixed and resting quality there is no fellow in the firmament.” Yet, there was no “true fixed” northern star during Julius Caesar’s reign (49-44 BCE). Is this a mere anachronism, poetic license, or poetic justice, since such a reference to a non-existent polestar would have made the populist Roman Emperor more fickle than constant? What stories will be told of Polaris and Ursa Minoris after 2102 CE, when the precessional drift moves on toward the star Deneb, in the constellation Cygnus (The Swan), in 9800 CE? And thereafter to Vega, in the constellation Lyra, from 12,000 to 13,727 CE? Will anyone be available and aware in 20,346 CE to welcome Thuban and the polar return of the dragon?&nbsp;<br><br>The interplay of these terrestrial and cosmic cycles might seem eternal. Barring a cataclysmic event, the Earth may indeed continue to revolve around the Sun every Earth year, and our North Pole may continue circumscribing its path every 25,772 years. Yet, our universe is constantly expanding, and the relative positions of our planet, our solar system, and our galaxy are ever-shifting with respect to each other and every other point in the universe.<br><br>Consequently, we never occupy the same point twice in time and space. Even as we take comfort and disquiet in returning to the sensations and memories of seasonal rhythms and phenomena, we hurtle forward, buffeted by the unknowable. Similarly, the stars and dust of constellations are forever drifting, coalescing, colliding and dispersing to gather again elsewhere. Every instant in the universe is simultaneously a return and absolutely unique.&nbsp;<br><br>—Robert Kirkbride</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#559c5f\">=^.^=</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"id\":482,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"http://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Robert6-lo-res-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-482\"/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">photo by Joy McKinney</figcaption></figure>\n<!-- /wp:image -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#559c5f\"><strong><a href=\"http://robertkirkbride.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Robert Kirkbride</a></strong> is a designer, musician, author, and professor who explores the interplay of memory, ornament, and placemaking.</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->','Always Becoming','','inherit','closed','closed','','481-revision-v1','','','2023-01-31 19:47:07','2023-01-31 19:47:07','',481,'http://flowercat.org/?p=803',0,'revision','',0),(804,1,'2023-01-31 19:47:27','2023-01-31 19:47:27','<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#2c2920\",\"background\":\"#f9f8f4\"}}} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#2c2920;background-color:#f9f8f4\"><strong>=^.^=</strong></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#2c2920\",\"background\":\"#f9f8f4\"}},\"fontSize\":\"large\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color has-background has-large-font-size\" style=\"color:#2c2920;background-color:#f9f8f4\"><strong>Biophonic Beats</strong></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"id\":168,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"http://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Biophonic-Beats-cover-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-168\"/></figure>\n<!-- /wp:image -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#2c2920\",\"background\":\"#f9f8f4\"}},\"fontSize\":\"extra-small\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-background has-extra-small-font-size\" style=\"color:#2c2920;background-color:#f9f8f4\"><iframe style=\"border: 0;

When one is asked to spontaneously hum a note, the pitch tends to match the utility frequency, or mains hum, because this frequency is integrated into our perceptual habits. In North America and parts of Asia, this frequency is 60Hz, while in the majority of the rest of the world it is 50Hz. Bourdon—meaning drone and derived from French for bumblebee and buzz—invites the audience to tune their individual embodiment of this ubiquitous tone by softly humming along as they listen. Bourdon offers space for contemplation and regeneration with an otherwise unwelcome frequency.</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#06111b\",\"background\":\"#f7f4e3\"}},\"fontSize\":\"small\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-background has-small-font-size\" style=\"color:#06111b;background-color:#f7f4e3\">released April 26, 2020<br><br>music composed by Melissa Grey &amp; David Morneau<br><br>Melissa Grey - sine wave synthesizer &amp; live sound processing<br>David Morneau - trombone<br>Robert Kirkbride - guitar</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"style\":{\"color\":{\"background\":\"#f7f4e3\",\"text\":\"#06111b\"}},\"fontSize\":\"extra-small\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-background has-extra-small-font-size\" style=\"color:#06111b;background-color:#f7f4e3\">Cover art based on a photograph taken by Susan Morneau as she listened to the livestream performance of <strong>Bourdon 50Hz [nº38]</strong></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:gallery {\"linkTo\":\"media\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped\"><!-- wp:image {\"id\":260,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"media\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/dm_IMG_20200424_162336760_HDR-scaled.jpg\"><img src=\"http://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/dm_IMG_20200424_162336760_HDR-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-260\"/></a></figure>\n<!-- /wp:image -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"id\":261,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"media\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/lAo_Bourdon-24-hour_screen-cap.png\"><img src=\"http://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/lAo_Bourdon-24-hour_screen-cap-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-261\"/></a></figure>\n<!-- /wp:image --></figure>\n<!-- /wp:gallery -->\n\n<!-- wp:embed {\"url\":\"https://youtu.be/dYRC8oINOGQ\",\"type\":\"video\",\"providerNameSlug\":\"youtube\",\"responsive\":true,\"className\":\"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps://youtu.be/dYRC8oINOGQ\n</div></figure>\n<!-- /wp:embed -->','Bourdon 50Hz [nº38]','','inherit','closed','closed','','232-revision-v1','','','2023-01-31 19:48:20','2023-01-31 19:48:20','',232,'http://flowercat.org/?p=806',0,'revision','',0),(807,1,'2023-01-31 19:48:42','2023-01-31 19:48:42','<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#432d00\",\"background\":\"#fce9af\"}}} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#432d00;background-color:#fce9af\"><strong>=^.^=</strong></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#432d00\",\"background\":\"#fce9af\"}},\"fontSize\":\"large\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color has-background has-large-font-size\" style=\"color:#432d00;background-color:#fce9af\"><strong>PETITE ecstasy</strong></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#432d00\",\"background\":\"#fce9af\"}},\"fontSize\":\"large\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color has-background has-large-font-size\" style=\"color:#432d00;background-color:#fce9af\">\"<strong>Each time I re-explore…there’s more to be moved and impressed by, to learn from.</strong>\"<br><a style=\"color:#432d00;\" href=\"https://newyorkarts.net/2016/11/artists-books-dan-rose-arbitrary-pleasures-plaisir-arbitraire-photon-ecstasy-hd-7924-van-pelt-library-university-pennsylvania/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>New York Arts</em></a></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"id\":215,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"http://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/004-00_Pe_cover-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-215\"/></figure>\n<!-- /wp:image -->\n\n<p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 439px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3027569808/size=large/bgcol=fce9af/linkcol=432d00/artwork=none/transparent=true/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https://flowercat.bandcamp.com/album/petite-ecstasy\">PETITE ecstasy by l&#39;Artiste ordinaire</a></iframe></p>\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#432d00\",\"background\":\"#fce9af\"}},\"fontSize\":\"small\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-background has-small-font-size\" style=\"color:#432d00;background-color:#fce9af\">History repeats: Melissa Grey &amp; David Morneau return to the expansive universe of <em>Photon Ecstasy</em> to survey for slippery drones, sparkling beats, and hallucinatory, shifting textures.

We experience the obliquity of our planet’s axis palpably, through the annual cycle of seasons, and this tilt also causes the Earth’s celestial pole to slowly revolve by 1º every 72 years, completing a full 360º rotation among a series of northern and southern “polestars” over a period of 25,772 years by a process known as the Precession of the Equinoxes.&nbsp;<br><br>Around 2200 years ago, the Greek astronomer Hipparchus (190-120 BCE) discovered the Precession of the Equinoxes by utilizing the observations that ancient Babylonian and Greek astronomers had gathered during the years 3942 to 1793 BCE, when the northern polestar had been Alpha Draconis. Also known by its Arabic name Thuban, signifying “head of the serpent,” the star occupies the “head” of the constellation Draco, a position that held lasting influence on human affairs. Several dragon-centered myths became anchored to the North Celestial Pole, regardless of the gradual precessional drift toward the next polestar, Polaris, in 500 CE.<br><br>In Hipparchus’s own time there was not a true polestar, yet myths of a dragon/Draco-centered north star lingered. One myth recounts the Greek goddess Athena hurling a dragon into the sky during a battle, where it became fixed to Thuban. In another, the goddess Hera places the dragon Ladon in the sky as a gesture of respect after its defeat by Hercules, whose own constellation stands victoriously on the head of the constellation Draco. Although outmoded by Hipparchus’s empirical studies, these myths nonetheless remained fixed in the popular imagination.&nbsp;<br><br>Nearly 1800 years later, the protagonist of Shakespeare’s play <em>Julius Caesar</em> claimed to be as “constant as the Northern Star, of whose true fixed and resting quality there is no fellow in the firmament.” Yet, there was no “true fixed” northern star during Julius Caesar’s reign (49-44 BCE). Is this a mere anachronism, poetic license, or poetic justice, since such a reference to a non-existent polestar would have made the populist Roman Emperor more fickle than constant? What stories will be told of Polaris and Ursa Minoris after 2102 CE, when the precessional drift moves on toward the star Deneb, in the constellation Cygnus (The Swan), in 9800 CE? And thereafter to Vega, in the constellation Lyra, from 12,000 to 13,727 CE? Will anyone be available and aware in 20,346 CE to welcome Thuban and the polar return of the dragon?&nbsp;<br><br>The interplay of these terrestrial and cosmic cycles might seem eternal. Barring a cataclysmic event, the Earth may indeed continue to revolve around the Sun every Earth year, and our North Pole may continue circumscribing its path every 25,772 years. Yet, our universe is constantly expanding, and the relative positions of our planet, our solar system, and our galaxy are ever-shifting with respect to each other and every other point in the universe.<br><br>Consequently, we never occupy the same point twice in time and space. Even as we take comfort and disquiet in returning to the sensations and memories of seasonal rhythms and phenomena, we hurtle forward, buffeted by the unknowable. Similarly, the stars and dust of constellations are forever drifting, coalescing, colliding and dispersing to gather again elsewhere. Every instant in the universe is simultaneously a return and absolutely unique.&nbsp;<br><br>—Robert Kirkbride</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#559c5f\">=^.^=</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"id\":482,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"http://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Robert6-lo-res-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-482\"/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">photo by Joy McKinney</figcaption></figure>\n<!-- /wp:image -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#559c5f\"><strong><a href=\"http://robertkirkbride.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Robert Kirkbride</a></strong> is a designer, musician, author, and professor who explores the interplay of memory, ornament, and placemaking.</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->','Always Becoming','','inherit','closed','closed','','481-revision-v1','','','2023-02-10 18:19:33','2023-02-10 18:19:33','',481,'https://flowercat.org/?p=818',0,'revision','',0),(822,1,'2023-02-13 19:28:40','2023-02-13 19:28:40','<!-- wp:paragraph {\"backgroundColor\":\"white\",\"textColor\":\"black\",\"fontSize\":\"extra-large\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background has-extra-large-font-size\"><strong>Always Becoming</strong> (EPK)</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"left\",\"backgroundColor\":\"white\",\"textColor\":\"black\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\"><a href=\"mailto:hello@flowercat.org\">hello@flowercat.org</a> </p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 900px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=1356121365/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/transparent=true/tracklist=true/tracks=1346135954,1459077191,3990321944,1566485748/esig=1bdb2f5e12da2ec2fb4f7ef209fdc228/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https://flowercat.bandcamp.com/album/always-becoming\">Always Becoming by Melissa Grey &amp; David Morneau, Robert Kirkbride</a></iframe></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"backgroundColor\":\"white\",\"textColor\":\"black\",\"fontSize\":\"large\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background has-large-font-size\"><strong><a href=\"https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1OVTpi1gMpZLat992kJbPZQjuFF1V1kgd?usp=share_link\" title=\"\">Downloads<br>(.wav, .mp3, hi-res images, one-sheet, press release)</a></strong></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"backgroundColor\":\"white\",\"textColor\":\"black\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\"><strong>Always Becoming</strong><br>Melissa Grey &amp; David Morneau, Robert Kirkbride<br><br>(1) Being          3’00<br>(2) Always          2’53<br>(3) Ever          3’04<br>(4) Becoming          5’16<br><br>Flower Cat (FC010)<br>March 7, 2023<br>UPC 195269220303<br>$10</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"backgroundColor\":\"white\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-white-background-color has-background\"><strong>Always Becoming</strong> weaves the colors of sunshine pop and dreampop with Robert Kirkbride’s harp-like guitars and Melissa Grey &amp; David Morneau’s crystalline orchestration and signature seductive beats, wrapping the listener in a sonic tapestry of ever-shifting patterns, pulses, and hues.<br><br>Complementing the music are nine hand drawings and an essay on humanity’s tilted view of seasonal cycles by Kirkbride, whose work explores the interplay of memory, ornament, and placemaking.

We experience the obliquity of our planet’s axis palpably, through the annual cycle of seasons, and this tilt also causes the Earth’s celestial pole to slowly revolve by 1º every 72 years, completing a full 360º rotation among a series of northern and southern “polestars” over a period of 25,772 years by a process known as the Precession of the Equinoxes.&nbsp;<br><br>Around 2200 years ago, the Greek astronomer Hipparchus (190-120 BCE) discovered the Precession of the Equinoxes by utilizing the observations that ancient Babylonian and Greek astronomers had gathered during the years 3942 to 1793 BCE, when the northern polestar had been Alpha Draconis. Also known by its Arabic name Thuban, signifying “head of the serpent,” the star occupies the “head” of the constellation Draco, a position that held lasting influence on human affairs. Several dragon-centered myths became anchored to the North Celestial Pole, regardless of the gradual precessional drift toward the next polestar, Polaris, in 500 CE.<br><br>In Hipparchus’s own time there was not a true polestar, yet myths of a dragon/Draco-centered north star lingered. One myth recounts the Greek goddess Athena hurling a dragon into the sky during a battle, where it became fixed to Thuban. In another, the goddess Hera places the dragon Ladon in the sky as a gesture of respect after its defeat by Hercules, whose own constellation stands victoriously on the head of the constellation Draco. Although outmoded by Hipparchus’s empirical studies, these myths nonetheless remained fixed in the popular imagination.&nbsp;<br><br>Nearly 1800 years later, the protagonist of Shakespeare’s play <em>Julius Caesar</em> claimed to be as “constant as the Northern Star, of whose true fixed and resting quality there is no fellow in the firmament.” Yet, there was no “true fixed” northern star during Julius Caesar’s reign (49-44 BCE). Is this a mere anachronism, poetic license, or poetic justice, since such a reference to a non-existent polestar would have made the populist Roman Emperor more fickle than constant? What stories will be told of Polaris and Ursa Minoris after 2102 CE, when the precessional drift moves on toward the star Deneb, in the constellation Cygnus (The Swan), in 9800 CE? And thereafter to Vega, in the constellation Lyra, from 12,000 to 13,727 CE? Will anyone be available and aware in 20,346 CE to welcome Thuban and the polar return of the dragon?&nbsp;<br><br>The interplay of these terrestrial and cosmic cycles might seem eternal. Barring a cataclysmic event, the Earth may indeed continue to revolve around the Sun every Earth year, and our North Pole may continue circumscribing its path every 25,772 years. Yet, our universe is constantly expanding, and the relative positions of our planet, our solar system, and our galaxy are ever-shifting with respect to each other and every other point in the universe.<br><br>Consequently, we never occupy the same point twice in time and space. Even as we take comfort and disquiet in returning to the sensations and memories of seasonal rhythms and phenomena, we hurtle forward, buffeted by the unknowable. Similarly, the stars and dust of constellations are forever drifting, coalescing, colliding and dispersing to gather again elsewhere. Every instant in the universe is simultaneously a return and absolutely unique.&nbsp;<br><br>—Robert Kirkbride</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph

We experience the obliquity of our planet’s axis palpably, through the annual cycle of seasons, and this tilt also causes the Earth’s celestial pole to slowly revolve by 1º every 72 years, completing a full 360º rotation among a series of northern and southern “polestars” over a period of 25,772 years by a process known as the Precession of the Equinoxes.&nbsp;<br><br>Around 2200 years ago, the Greek astronomer Hipparchus (190-120 BCE) discovered the Precession of the Equinoxes by utilizing the observations that ancient Babylonian and Greek astronomers had gathered during the years 3942 to 1793 BCE, when the northern polestar had been Alpha Draconis. Also known by its Arabic name Thuban, signifying “head of the serpent,” the star occupies the “head” of the constellation Draco, a position that held lasting influence on human affairs. Several dragon-centered myths became anchored to the North Celestial Pole, regardless of the gradual precessional drift toward the next polestar, Polaris, in 500 CE.<br><br>In Hipparchus’s own time there was not a true polestar, yet myths of a dragon/Draco-centered north star lingered. One myth recounts the Greek goddess Athena hurling a dragon into the sky during a battle, where it became fixed to Thuban. In another, the goddess Hera places the dragon Ladon in the sky as a gesture of respect after its defeat by Hercules, whose own constellation stands victoriously on the head of the constellation Draco. Although outmoded by Hipparchus’s empirical studies, these myths nonetheless remained fixed in the popular imagination.&nbsp;<br><br>Nearly 1800 years later, the protagonist of Shakespeare’s play <em>Julius Caesar</em> claimed to be as “constant as the Northern Star, of whose true fixed and resting quality there is no fellow in the firmament.” Yet, there was no “true fixed” northern star during Julius Caesar’s reign (49-44 BCE). Is this a mere anachronism, poetic license, or poetic justice, since such a reference to a non-existent polestar would have made the populist Roman Emperor more fickle than constant? What stories will be told of Polaris and Ursa Minoris after 2102 CE, when the precessional drift moves on toward the star Deneb, in the constellation Cygnus (The Swan), in 9800 CE? And thereafter to Vega, in the constellation Lyra, from 12,000 to 13,727 CE? Will anyone be available and aware in 20,346 CE to welcome Thuban and the polar return of the dragon?&nbsp;<br><br>The interplay of these terrestrial and cosmic cycles might seem eternal. Barring a cataclysmic event, the Earth may indeed continue to revolve around the Sun every Earth year, and our North Pole may continue circumscribing its path every 25,772 years. Yet, our universe is constantly expanding, and the relative positions of our planet, our solar system, and our galaxy are ever-shifting with respect to each other and every other point in the universe.<br><br>Consequently, we never occupy the same point twice in time and space. Even as we take comfort and disquiet in returning to the sensations and memories of seasonal rhythms and phenomena, we hurtle forward, buffeted by the unknowable. Similarly, the stars and dust of constellations are forever drifting, coalescing, colliding and dispersing to gather again elsewhere. Every instant in the universe is simultaneously a return and absolutely unique.&nbsp;<br><br>—Robert Kirkbride</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#559c5f\">=^.^=</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"id\":482,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"http://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Robert6-lo-res-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-482\"/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">photo by Joy McKinney</figcaption></figure>\n<!-- /wp:image -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#559c5f\"><strong><a href=\"http://robertkirkbride.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Robert Kirkbride</a></strong> is a designer, musician, author, and professor who explores the interplay of memory, ornament, and placemaking.</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->','Always Becoming','','inherit','closed','closed','','481-revision-v1','','','2023-03-10 04:33:06','2023-03-10 04:33:06','',481,'https://flowercat.org/?p=859',0,'revision','',0),(856,1,'2023-03-10 04:27:27','2023-03-10 04:27:27','<!-- wp:paragraph {\"backgroundColor\":\"white\",\"textColor\":\"black\",\"fontSize\":\"large\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background has-large-font-size\"><strong>Press</strong></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:columns {\"backgroundColor\":\"white\",\"textColor\":\"black\"} -->\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\"><!-- wp:column {\"width\":\"100%\"} -->\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\"><!-- wp:media-text {\"mediaId\":853,\"mediaLink\":\"https://flowercat.org/press/buzzslayers/\",\"mediaType\":\"image\",\"mediaWidth\":36,\"mediaSizeSlug\":\"medium\",\"backgroundColor\":\"white\",\"textColor\":\"black\"} -->\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"grid-template-columns:36% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img src=\"https://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/buzzslayers.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-853 size-medium\"/></figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\"><!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"placeholder\":\"Content…\",\"fontSize\":\"extra-small\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-extra-small-font-size\"><strong>“a masterclass on how to utilize space…like an explorer discovering new terrain and going over every inch with a fine comb.”</strong><br><a href=\"https://www.buzzslayers.com/post/melissa-grey-david-morneau-robert-kirkbride-always-becoming\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">BuzzSlayers</a></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph --></div></div>\n<!-- /wp:media-text --></div>\n<!-- /wp:column --></div>\n<!-- /wp:columns -->\n\n<!-- wp:columns {\"backgroundColor\":\"white\",\"textColor\":\"black\"} -->\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\"><!-- wp:column {\"width\":\"100%\"} -->\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\"><!-- wp:media-text {\"mediaId\":852,\"mediaLink\":\"https://flowercat.org/press/lost-in-the-nordic/\",\"mediaType\":\"image\",\"mediaWidth\":36,\"mediaSizeSlug\":\"medium\",\"backgroundColor\":\"white\",\"textColor\":\"black\"} -->\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile has-black-color has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"grid-template-columns:36% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img src=\"https://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/lost-in-the-nordic.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-852 size-medium\"/></figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\"><!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"placeholder\":\"Content…\",\"fontSize\":\"extra-small\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-extra-small-font-size\"><strong>“The production is masterfully realized and consistently creative…</strong><strong>.

We experience the obliquity of our planet’s axis palpably, through the annual cycle of seasons, and this tilt also causes the Earth’s celestial pole to slowly revolve by 1º every 72 years, completing a full 360º rotation among a series of northern and southern “polestars” over a period of 25,772 years by a process known as the Precession of the Equinoxes.&nbsp;<br><br>Around 2200 years ago, the Greek astronomer Hipparchus (190-120 BCE) discovered the Precession of the Equinoxes by utilizing the observations that ancient Babylonian and Greek astronomers had gathered during the years 3942 to 1793 BCE, when the northern polestar had been Alpha Draconis. Also known by its Arabic name Thuban, signifying “head of the serpent,” the star occupies the “head” of the constellation Draco, a position that held lasting influence on human affairs. Several dragon-centered myths became anchored to the North Celestial Pole, regardless of the gradual precessional drift toward the next polestar, Polaris, in 500 CE.<br><br>In Hipparchus’s own time there was not a true polestar, yet myths of a dragon/Draco-centered north star lingered. One myth recounts the Greek goddess Athena hurling a dragon into the sky during a battle, where it became fixed to Thuban. In another, the goddess Hera places the dragon Ladon in the sky as a gesture of respect after its defeat by Hercules, whose own constellation stands victoriously on the head of the constellation Draco. Although outmoded by Hipparchus’s empirical studies, these myths nonetheless remained fixed in the popular imagination.&nbsp;<br><br>Nearly 1800 years later, the protagonist of Shakespeare’s play <em>Julius Caesar</em> claimed to be as “constant as the Northern Star, of whose true fixed and resting quality there is no fellow in the firmament.” Yet, there was no “true fixed” northern star during Julius Caesar’s reign (49-44 BCE). Is this a mere anachronism, poetic license, or poetic justice, since such a reference to a non-existent polestar would have made the populist Roman Emperor more fickle than constant? What stories will be told of Polaris and Ursa Minoris after 2102 CE, when the precessional drift moves on toward the star Deneb, in the constellation Cygnus (The Swan), in 9800 CE? And thereafter to Vega, in the constellation Lyra, from 12,000 to 13,727 CE? Will anyone be available and aware in 20,346 CE to welcome Thuban and the polar return of the dragon?&nbsp;<br><br>The interplay of these terrestrial and cosmic cycles might seem eternal. Barring a cataclysmic event, the Earth may indeed continue to revolve around the Sun every Earth year, and our North Pole may continue circumscribing its path every 25,772 years. Yet, our universe is constantly expanding, and the relative positions of our planet, our solar system, and our galaxy are ever-shifting with respect to each other and every other point in the universe.<br><br>Consequently, we never occupy the same point twice in time and space. Even as we take comfort and disquiet in returning to the sensations and memories of seasonal rhythms and phenomena, we hurtle forward, buffeted by the unknowable. Similarly, the stars and dust of constellations are forever drifting, coalescing, colliding and dispersing to gather again elsewhere. Every instant in the universe is simultaneously a return and absolutely unique.&nbsp;<br><br>—Robert Kirkbride</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#559c5f\">=^.^=</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"id\":482,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"http://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Robert6-lo-res-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-482\"/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">photo by Joy McKinney</figcaption></figure>\n<!-- /wp:image -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#559c5f\"><strong><a href=\"http://robertkirkbride.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Robert Kirkbride</a></strong> is a designer, musician, author, and professor who explores the interplay of memory, ornament, and placemaking.</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->','Always Becoming','','inherit','closed','closed','','481-revision-v1','','','2023-03-10 04:36:38','2023-03-10 04:36:38','',481,'https://flowercat.org/?p=861',0,'revision','',0),(858,1,'2023-03-10 04:31:17','2023-03-10 04:31:17','<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#559c5f\"><strong>=^.^=</strong></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\",\"fontSize\":\"large\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background has-large-font-size\" style=\"color:#559c5f\"><strong>Always Becoming</strong></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\",\"fontSize\":\"large\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background has-large-font-size\" style=\"color:#559c5f\"><strong>\"A profound collection of songs–</strong><br><strong>a true can’t-miss album.\"</strong><br><a href=\"https://www.whichcoast.com/reviews/melissa-grey-and-david-morneau-robert-kirkbride-always-becoming\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Which Coast</a></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"align\":\"center\",\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\",\"fontSize\":\"large\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background has-large-font-size\" style=\"color:#559c5f\"><strong>\"A real pleasure to let fill the room.\"</strong><br><a href=\"https://stereostickman.com/music/melissa-grey-david-morneau-robert-kirkbride-always-becoming/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Stereo Stickman</a></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"id\":653,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"https://flowercat.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Always-Becoming__cover_web_FINAL-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-653\"/></figure>\n<!-- /wp:image -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 300px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=1356121365/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/artwork=none/transparent=true/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https://flowercat.bandcamp.com/album/always-becoming\">Always Becoming by Melissa Grey &amp; David Morneau, Robert Kirkbride</a></iframe></p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph {\"style\":{\"color\":{\"text\":\"#559c5f\"}},\"backgroundColor\":\"white\"} -->\n<p class=\"has-white-background-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"color:#559c5f\"><strong>Always Becoming</strong> weaves the colors of sunshine pop and dreampop with Robert Kirkbride’s harp-like guitars and Melissa Grey &amp; David Morneau’s crystalline orchestration and signature seductive beats, wrapping the listener in a sonic tapestry of ever-shifting patterns, pulses, and hues.<br><br>Complementing the music are nine hand drawings and an essay on humanity’s tilted view of seasonal cycles by Kirkbride, whose work explores the interplay of memory, ornament, and placemaking.

We experience the obliquity of our planet’s axis palpably, through the annual cycle of seasons, and this tilt also causes the Earth’s celestial pole to slowly revolve by 1º every 72 years, completing a full 360º rotation among a series of northern and southern “polestars” over a period of 25,772 years by a process known as the Precession of the Equinoxes.&nbsp;<br><br>Around 2200 years ago, the Greek astronomer Hipparchus (190-120 BCE) discovered the Precession of the Equinoxes by utilizing the observations that ancient Babylonian and Greek astronomers had gathered during the years 3942 to 1793 BCE, when the northern polestar had been Alpha Draconis. Also known by its Arabic name Thuban, signifying “head of the serpent,” the star occupies the “head” of the constellation Draco, a position that held lasting influence on human affairs. Several dragon-centered myths became anchored to the North Celestial Pole, regardless of the gradual precessional drift toward the next polestar, Polaris, in 500 CE.<br><br>In Hipparchus’s own time there was not a true polestar, yet myths of a dragon/Draco-centered north star lingered. One myth recounts the Greek goddess Athena hurling a dragon into the sky during a battle, where it became fixed to Thuban. In another, the goddess Hera places the dragon Ladon in the sky as a gesture of respect after its defeat by Hercules, whose own constellation stands victoriously on the head of the constellation Draco. Although outmoded by Hipparchus’s empirical studies, these myths nonetheless remained fixed in the popular imagination.&nbsp;<br><br>Nearly 1800 years later, the protagonist of Shakespeare’s play <em>Julius Caesar</em> claimed to be as “constant as the Northern Star, of whose true fixed and resting quality there is no fellow in the firmament.” Yet, there was no “true fixed” northern star during Julius Caesar’s reign (49-44 BCE). Is this a mere anachronism, poetic license, or poetic justice, since such a reference to a non-existent polestar would have made the populist Roman Emperor more fickle than constant? What stories will be told of Polaris and Ursa Minoris after 2102 CE, when the precessional drift moves on toward the star Deneb, in the constellation Cygnus (The Swan), in 9800 CE? And thereafter to Vega, in the constellation Lyra, from 12,000 to 13,727 CE? Will anyone be available and aware in 20,346 CE to welcome Thuban and the polar return of the dragon?&nbsp;<br><br>The interplay of these terrestrial and cosmic cycles might seem eternal. Barring a cataclysmic event, the Earth may indeed continue to revolve around the Sun every Earth year, and our North Pole may continue circumscribing its path every 25,772 years. Yet, our universe is constantly expanding, and the relative positions of our planet, our solar system, and our galaxy are ever-shifting with respect to each other and every other point in the universe.<br><br>Consequently, we never occupy the same point twice in time and space. Even as we take comfort and disquiet in returning to the sensations and memories of seasonal rhythms and phenomena, we hurtle forward, buffeted by the unknowable. Similarly, the stars and dust of constellations are forever drifting, coalescing, colliding and dispersing to gather again elsewhere. Every instant in the universe is simultaneously a return and absolutely unique.&nbsp;<br><br>—Robert Kirkbride</p>\n<!-- /wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph
