About me

My Photo
Neal Barber
I have multivarious interests. Here, you can find my blogs on library matters, my current projects in theatre - I am a Director, Stage Manager, Production Guy, Technical Op, Designer, and Actor - my research in theatre, my random musings, and - most recently - my experienced in teaching/learning. I firmly believe in breaking down the traditional binaries - particularly, research/practitioner, public/private, formal/informal etc.

Praeter flammas somniorum

5AMs

30.9.09

Another 5am in the office
Pouring over philosophyeducationresearch
It all seems so petty
Pernicious paradigms pilfering profundity

Couldn't sleep
Things said at meeting
Rudely waking me
Gorgonic governance growing graceless

Post-o-rama

12.12.08

I was doing some tidying last night and came across my writing book. So, over the next wee while I will post my musings here. I will, however, put the date they were written as my post date so you may have to click through my tag cloud to find what little treasures interest you.

Shell

5.9.08

Insides hollowed out - nothing there at all
husk
Walking through cities of glass; hallowed hall
husk
Dawn brings with her the promise of something
rust
But joy she does not bring - bells will not ring
rust
Instead she brings life; more hours - walking husk

In the Eyes

1.9.08

Red eyes twinkling, light
Calling to me; craving me
In him is me; dark

We All Know This One...

28.8.08

The work day looms large
Begins to lengthen, extend
Longer as week wanes
