25th anniversary. Deja Vu the code is in flux. It began with Japanese cookbooks and sushi but something else lies hidden deep within the green heart of the code and it is time to unlock the door. Shooting stars of Katakana with trails of P1 phosphor green cross the screen. Matching traditional Japanese calligraphy they become falling stars. Slowed they resemble tears of rain (Eirys) creating a forest of melancholy Green (Coeden) where Mriga and her starry friends dwell. Long before stone circles there were glades in ancient forests called ley’s, the sun delivered the time of day, the stars the night and the surrounding ring of trees the changing seasons. The tears of white are beithe, one of thirteen different species of trees surrounding each ley, with their own code and calendar. Frequented by Creatures long before the Longlegs arrived, these ley’s were connected to others by ley or song lines. The little bird with musical bow, rises Red with dawns golden locks, following the white rabbit’s foxfire moon and stars to Achernar’s Blue – Well Spring to the River in the Sky. The stars and planets bring rain, life and colour to the Eirys Coeden – guardians of the creature’s mimlacode of ethics and mirror to the human’s digital matrixcode. Humans and creatures must work together if we are to save this rainbow coloured planet we call home.
The code was designed and created for a specific purpose – to trigger an emotional response. Compassion and empathy for the world around us and to save humanity from itself.
