We are such stuff
As dreams are made on; and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep.

William Shakespeare

For several years now, I am thinking about a website about music and art that has some kind of religious meaning. Not a specific religion, but a religious way of looking at reality. Every time I think about it I stumble at the first hurdle: describing the website to myself, finding words to express what the website is about, finding a name or title for the website. I alway end up with these words by Shakespeare, from The Tempest.

Art (or music) that is like 'stuff as dreams are made on', relating to thoughts about our existence and to our questions about existence, without trying to find any answers. Just wanting to be close to these thoughts and questions. Pockets of silence, as Rothko once called his paintings.

I am writing this to try to help myself go beyond that first hurdle.

I think that I can identify with your desire to do this. Some of my photos have a strong spiritual side (at least to me!) and I have seen the same sort of emotion in your photos as well.

good luck with the development of this concept and the associated website development. Keep us posted on how you go.
