As I made my ( transitional ) drive from my future back to my past today, I listened to the Alien sounds of the album Oxygene. / From the master himself, Jean Michel Jarre. It is a sound for Earthly ears, with a message from the cosmos, to me its about the search for a new home on another world by a race that as destroyed the one they were given.The search is long and time passes slowly, the new worlds must have the thing we as a species need “Oxygene” / So their search across space may go on for eternity, for they say ” you can never go home again”. / And even when you find that other world, it still is not “home”. So I suppose MY message is…........... ’ Think about what we as a race are doing to our home world, do we really want to have to travel the stars for all eternity, searching for something we already have?................think! I wanted to create an image of what their home world was like before its destruction.So I created this one and called it “Oxygene”

Totally Alien, Pure Scifi, just one of the many worlds within this Alien Mind. Its my dream and may I never wake-up!!! “May you always create well and prosper” AV
As we look at the scene before us, we see many lights in the sky. / And since man first walked upon this Earth, he as always wondered what they were, those lights in the night sky. / Has he became more aware through technological advances, he sort of understood what they could be. / And even to this day he still wonders, what hides in the great blue yonder. It draws us forever to explore the vast unseen, we know the substance of it, its there before our eyes. / But what do those lights in the sky really hide from our eyes. They hide the….... Substance – of things not seen This is my entry into the challenge ” The Substance of things not seen” And of course for me it would be about the void beyond this Earth.

In the far northern hemisphere of Saturn’s moon Titan, lies the future city of Ringsview. I say future city because this will not be built until man decides there is more to life than this small planet. That beyond our atmosphere lies our future Of course to do that, humanity as first to put an end to war, and step into the future with one mind, as one people. / To take the human race to the stars, to explore the lights we have looked at in the heavens for thousands of years.

Art over the centuries as boldly gone where no art as gone before! Art as evolved with leaps and bounds, it as crossed a great many mediums. And it had to happen, here we have the planet Epsilon-Epsilon. The planet was purchased by one individual for the sole purpose of creating a work of art. The planet as thousands of cities and towns, all built as different architectual art forms, they are not populated, in fact there are no beings that live on the whole planet. / There is a reception center on the largest moon, the “tours” can take anywhere from 1 to 10 years to complete. The artist know as *Alienvisitor plans to purchase the entire solar system and all 13 of its planets, so one day the system itself will become the art form. This is but a small sample of said art…...the city of Flight, the architecture here is based on but not exact of his *Cities in Flight Series. Featured in Images & Ideas Group 25/07/09
The edge of never as always being a mixture of many things from across time and space. / So its only right that somebeing should open a bistro dedicated to the gods of ancient Egypt. / For do we really know anything about these same ancient gods, is not all we know really just conjecture. / And here at the very edge of never, will our questions will be answered…..probably not. / But still’ enjoy the moment, step through this doorway to a bistro in Space & Time…................at the edge of Never. / The food may not even be recognizable, but nothing ventured nothing….....

In the Litr system lies a planet called Morragg, here in the southern hemisphire is the Sea of Dread. / Many have sailed these waters, but none have ever returned. Legends say that if a being can sail across it and return, they will be given wealth beyond their wildest dreams plus they will own this world outright. / And only then will the protectiive shield be lifted. / Put here by a race of beings yet unknown, the shield allows no machinery or technology to work below 10,000 feet, not even transpobeams, when the planet was discovered a probe was located in low orbit, after translation it explained in great detail what would happen to any ship decending lower. / I guess a fair number of beings just didn’t believe, for there are hundreds of wrecked craft strewn across this world after loosing all power below the shield. / Really the only way to land is by way of gliders or balloons.
Banished from the Alliance Worlds millennia ago, and after untold centuries of living among the stars, members of the cult founded their order & temple on a small moon orbiting the ice planet Toras. / This system lies in a dark outer arm of the Andromeda Galaxy, and as three planets. / The cult was formed on the belief that the only way to bring about galactic peace and brotherhood, was to rid the worlds of all humans. A little extreme to say the least, and not something the rest of humanity could really get into. / So after the Sanarrans brought about genocide on a number of worlds, the cult was banished and forgotten. But will we hear from them again…...............who knows
Above the dark pool at Talics Knob the storm clouds gather. Legends say that the pool is the resting place of a monstrous green dragon the waits in the murky depths. / The do say that a really violent storm could disturb its rest, and then it would rise again. / But its really just a myth…..........really!!
On Queeblus Graino in the Stellis system lies the forbidding coast known as the Teeth of the Dragon. / Over the centuries untold numbers of vessels have been lost along this shore. But it is estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands. It can be found at the western edge of the Sargarus Sea, the Teeth have to be navigated to reach the spaceport at Rivers Mouth. / Most of the planet is a no fly zone , so sailing vessels are the only form of transpotation. A great many river pilots will tell you they know the waters here, but unless they bear the Guild of Pilots Scarass Seal on there foreheads it would bode you well not to trust them with your ship and your life. / But many captains wanting to save credits have found the Teeth of the Dragon to be their final resting place. And of course a great salvage industry as sprung up along this coast which stretches for 4,000 leagues or in modern measurement 12,000 miles.
Here in camp the days heat as given way a much colder night. / And sitting here before a blazing fire we get to see the buttes we climbed today, set against a sinking sun and hopefully the storm clouds will pass us by.
Have you ever wondered what sights await far from the shores of Earth. / Out beyond our Milky Way, out there beneath distant suns. This is what I think of when I write my stories for my images, for I see in my minds eye the wonders that lie beneath those suns. And with those thoughts try to describe their majesty. / Its really an incredible view and my words fall short, yet they await…............... / Out there on the very edge of a galaxy, far, far, far, away.
The Regis Dam on Sagrelonus Sindi is slowly flooding the beautiful Galtriss valley, / and who knows what plants and animals will become extinct with the rising waters. Its all to do with progress, build first, then wonder what was destroyed in the process. / When fully flooded only the top of Mount Raynz will be visible.
I found it, I found it, its that special place where both space & time are warped. / This is the city where its possible to witness both sunrise and set at the same time. Its Curved Space… Personally, I think its really a state of mind, but if your a “Rocky Horror” fan this is the city for you. / It may be something in the grass, it may be something in the air, / it may be som…......who cares! So sing along folks…... It’s astounding; / Time is fleeting; / Madness takes its toll. / But listen closely… Not for very much longer. I’ve got to keep control. I remember doing the time-warp / Drinking those moments when / The Blackness would hit me And the void would be calling… Let’s do the time-warp again. / Let’s do the time-warp again. It’s just a jump to the left. And then a step to the right. Put your hands on your hips. You bring your knees in tight. / But it’s the pelvic thrust / That really drives you insane. / Let’s do the time-warp again. / Let’s do the time-warp again. It’s so dreamy, oh fantasy free me. / So you can’t see me, no, not at all. / In another dimension, with / voyeuristic intention, / Well secluded, I see all. With a bit of a mind flip You’re into the time slip. And nothing can ever be the same. You’re spaced out on sensation. Like you’re under sedation. Let’s do the time-warp again. / Let’s do the time-warp again. Well I was walking down the street / just a-having a think / When a snake of a guy gave me an / evil wink. / He shook-a me up, he took me by surprise. / He had a pickup truck, and the / devil’s eyes. / He stared at me and I felt a change. / Time meant nothing, never would again. Let’s do the time-warp again. / Let’s do the time-warp again. It’s just a jump to the left. And then a step to the right. Put your hands on your hips.

Every 300 years or so the planet Hale’akala glows red with anger, it is then time when offerings are made to the Goddess Pele. A time when our old and unhealthy give themselves, so that the strong may live. Stories and legends tell that this tower that rises 500 feet above to sea was once a great sky ship, and it sailed between the stars, it brought the people here to this place. / Our people have some very strange stories, how could something so big fly? But then I am old and unhealthy, the mind is slipping….........................so
The river Liese wends her way to the Darkwind Sea in the northlands of Galrath. / On her way she passes many lands, but by far the strangest is the forbidding Darkling Wood. / Liese is a swift river with many rapids and falls, yet in the 300 miles through the Wood her angry waters are almost deathly calm. / When running the river one must stay in the very center of the stream, this a hard thing to do, for the currents try to pull the boat to shore. / An untold number of beings have been lost in the passage, for the Darkling Wood holds many secrets, and a great many souls. At least this is what legends, myths and stories tell. And when running the river under the great moon Rakanoth and her dark child Shadow, it is very easy to believe these myths, whether they be fact or fiction. And the entity of the Darkling Wood plays many tricks with the mind. This is a scene from the 2341 film ” Worlds of the Celts “ As with all my work its best viewed in ZOOM mode

In the histories of ancient lighthouses a number stand out more than others, such is the light “Qualar’s Sun” on the northern coast of Santo. Built in the 2nd century by cosmo-technician Jolas Qualar, it was a marvel of the age. / Qualar used solar energy from the second sun he created in the night sky to power the disc that seemed to float above the bronze tower. The light itself could be seen from the moon and even ships entering the system knew instantly where the planet Nippseen spun in relation to the other planets and satellites in the system. / Of course there always seem to be a flaws in great works, the flaw in this one came about when Qualar died in a lab. explosion, taking with him the secret of his sun which even then was dimming. The light from the disc continued to glow for about 200 years, and then gradually diminished until finally going dark and no amount of technology as being able to make it work since, although many have tried. / And so here it sits on above the Endless Sea, now its just an oddity, and the sun he created just hangs in space, slowly dying. ‘excerpt from “Ancient Lighthouses of the Milky Way Galaxy” 24th edition
