Philosophy of passion

Spinning brings us closer to ourselves. The practice of control of the human body has always been something sought by by people through dance, martial arts, circus, acrobatics.

But how does the prop actually change anything? An extra limb, something external to learn how to control perhaps? I believe one of the most important aspects it adds is a clever feedback system.

But then is it the prop that gives us something or is it us, observing our movement with it?
No it's an exchange. An exchange between us and something inanimate.

And so it doesn't only bring us closer to ourselves, it also brings us closer to everything around us.
Understanding the world perhaps not only for what it is physically or mathematically, but what it feels like. What it looks like.

Along with our passion for the art, sparks a passion for the world. And we learn to understand others through that same passion.

The state of Playjoy

Some of you may know of my project Playjoy, some of you may not.

A few months back Playjoy only had two active broadcasters, the vision drifted because activity of the channel dwindled. Eventually one of the two remaining broadcasters could not stream any longer because of hardware issues.

And so I, Mireneye or Solexive as most on twitch may know me was left alone. This was the case for some time but we did have a few sporadic appearances from some of our casters. But in essence, I've spearheaded Playjoy for quite some time, more or less on my own. (Always with the support of viewers of course <3 br="">
On one of our team meetings way back I voiced that during summer I will not be streaming as much. I will spend my time practicing contemporary circus on the beach, traveling and enjoying adventures outside of the digital world.

This doesn't mean that there won't be Playjoy broadcasts but I personally WILL deviate from the conventional schedule. I will however respect the schedule if ANY of our broadcasters has a time on it but you will likely NOT be able to find my time there 'til a few minutes or maybe an hour before my own broadcasts.

I hear you are all questioning "When is summer?" & "When will you be back?" My plan at the moment is to wrap up my current games. We might be looking at a start of my "vacation" in about a month. So in July. The current plan is to start with me going to Camp Burn Yourself 2014 in Sweden and then go to European Juggling Convention 2014. My plans may still change but if that happens we are looking at a time-frame of a start of my absence, It should begin around 13 or 14th of July.

As for when I'll be back. Likely within a month after that but I can't say. August sometime perhaps.

Finally I want to explain to everyone why my casts are so inconsistent in energy level and engagement. My work recently switched from a consistent work seven days a week and then have seven days off to where I work one day, i have two off. work three days on the weekend, have four days off, one day work etc, etc, etc. This really does not work well with my way of life and conflicts a lot with my sleeping habits. Some days I sleep three hours... and others I just can't get up and end up sleeping for like twelve hours. I'm sorry you really do deserve a more consistent broadcast. Seeing as you put away other things to hang out on Playjoy. It is something I can't give you and I don't hold it to you if you can't be there. Now that my broadcasts will become more sporadic. I will 'try' to keep to the schedule whenever I can. But I can not promise consistency at this time in my life. 

Thank you all for the incredibly journey so far as we continue our journey together to grow a loving and caring community, a channel with great content in the pursuit of the elusive partnership while keeping in mind to "Play & Enjoy"

Why I don't vote

Democracy doesn't work and I'd rather not support a broken system such as the political machine we have today.


It doesn't matter in what shape or form. Power will be toyed with which is why the power should not be in a centralized party nor should it go to voters uninformed and stupid.


Mind you I'm not a political figure. I know VERY little. So don't put me into some standard category. I'm voicing an opinion I built over several years based on what I feel.

I feel the world is sick. We pop our bodies full of medicine to feel healthy yet.. medicine is not health. We think there is something wrong with young people and we blame others. And yet, those we hold close are naturally a reflections on ourselves.

We think we are in control of our lives while in fact we are simply suppressed to the point of not even knowing what we can do. And no single man is strong enough to fight the governments different visages.

We fool ourselves daily that our choices by vote or choices in work and life actually matter while the most we usually accumulate are simple remedies. A random patchwork upon an open bleeding wound.

We think that we can find consolation in the purchase of various products because commercials tell us, ever so cleverly by images and word how we will feel better. And I quote "You deserve a chocolate bar", no fuck why? How have we become so stupid? It doesn't matter how smart you are. I've been fascinated quite some time by mentalism and psychology and It's ridiculous how blatantly we are being toyed with.

They aren't even trying to hide it any more because they don't need to, because we are a fucking herd following the fucking herders like fucking sheep.

Next time do yourself a favor: When you leave the buss or a crowded place, take the path less walked even if it's longer. Make it a practice to break habits and find your own way.

When we finally get to the point of acting on the issues of the world, the broken system most of you so diligently protect by victimizing yourself to it will already have delayed it so it will be too little too late.

We live in a day and age where I can clear a situation between me and a friend in Japan within seconds if so is necessary. An age where this message could reach millions in minutes if the whim of the vast internet would fall in it's favor. Some people call it the culmination of the Information age.

And yet it takes me precisely between one week and my death to receive some help for a pressing medical issue. And what do I get, a lukewarm reception and a pat on the back and sent home with stronger pills.

By now I hope you understand this is not one single point I'm trying to make. This is everything and it's broken.

With a world so fantastical with so much creativity, so many possibilities and so many good people one would think that we would actually be able to make a difference. Yet society really doesn't have a platform for it. All we have is a biased world that circulates around the concept of money and power.

And if you are not a slave to others you'll have to be a slave to yourself. It's almost as if we are here to suffer.

How Buddhist.

And Sweden... GATHER SOME FUCKING BALLS! Stop acting all high and mighty holding to your dear and sacred cleanliness. OH such a good country, we never go out of line. Well WHOOP DI FUCKING DOO!.... It has cost us our freedom so thank you.

And as for the Pirate party of Sweden, I used to like you. You are a lesser evil still. But at the end of the day you are trying to beat the system on it's own battle ground. I'm sorry but that's not what a pirate would do.

And to all you other sick people who think that all these other COMMERCIAL RIDDEN flipping solutions that have you pay for their services (or gets paid from simply having them) is any better well take a look at the mirror and ask yourself how foolish you look. IT'S THE SAME THING ALL OVER AGAIN! Companies taking control and abusing us.

But is is really their fault? no.. most likely not. It's just the broken system.

A system YOU or MANY others support and protect.

And that is why I don't vote.

Mireneye caged

Circumstances can be a real pain in the ass sometimes.

At the moment the thing that consistently brings me back to broadcasting at the moment is my will to be consistent and my will to someday reach my goals. And the icing on the top is meeting up with all of you sweet and awesome people who I love so much, those who have supported our vision so far, you know who you are. A heartfelt thank you.

I'm at a crossroads. Yet I really only see one path ahead of me. I'll just have to keep going, I've been slacking off, taken breaks, been inconsistent in my presentation so taking a break would not be an option for me. It has so far proven to be incredibly counter productive.

The circumstance as they are. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.. I don't feel I do anything differently. I upgraded the graphics, but that I think hardly changed anything.

So is it my fault? likely not. But could be.

Is it your fault then for not being active? Of course not. It's just that because the overall atmosphere falls silent and un-inspiring the circumstances are clearly at fault.

It's an odd mood I'm in. I'm full of spirit I'm full of energy and I'm very grateful. I'm doing so much progress in so many places in life. Yet the place where I put down most time and most of this energy is the place that seems to just have ground to a halt. It's not completely still, and there is nothing inherently wrong with the standstill. It's comfortable hanging out and talking and having fun with you all. I love you for being there with me.

The way I see it it's the same stew all over, every day at the moment. I need to add some spice to it somehow and I don't know what because at the end of the day the stew is not the problem.

It's just that the circumstances have caged me in my growth.
