Ken Wilber's "Amber Myth" and "Amber" by 311

Posted March 28th, 2010 by barbi hammond in html, paradoxical thinking, P.D.

....Amber 311 KEEPS PLAYING OVER AND OVER AGAIN 0 aMBER <---cLICK HERE. It keeps playing on this page and it will not stip I mean "stop" just keeps going on and on I'm not joking.

Not that I mind but I do not know what it means. It's always been one of my favorite songs. Puts me in a good mood.

I associated "Amber" with "amber myth" in Ken Wilber's "stages of development" because the only other form of "amber" that comes to mid or mind is the amber colour of tree sap but do no know what "amber" would have to do with the colour of energy. And/not or now I do after "thinking" about it--the colour of the sun's energy.

I find it strange because yesterday I was wording or working on a response to someone who claimed that there was "no correlation" between CO2 and temperature by referencing a graph that showed normal average global temperature



Faint Young sun paradox turned horizontally to show the paradox of a liquid planet during times of low solar output and turned horizontally to put in ? (got cut off?)








Wilber's reference to "amber myth" is actually the "blue" stage of development in Spiral Dynamics which he "changed" to amber (don't ask me why) and correlates with the Gebser's two-dimensional mythical structure of temporicity (circular time of twilight dreaming) with the colour amber. Then I began to notice some time last night that it keeps on playing over and over nonstip (what does that mean? nonstop) on a post that has a doing the same thing over and over again theme. I did not do that on purpose It just makes me feel good and I like the sound of it. Don't think it is deep based on my research of the lyrics and the song meaning typing it out. Yet I digg it.

I was concerned after actually listening to he lyrics and thought it was bad luck....sounds like they're singing, "Rain storm take me away from the North, I-I got to tell you something...this foot on am on and had to put it in a song and it goes like: wo-o amber is the colour of your energy wo-o shades of gold is playing naturally he he you wanna know what brings me here uh oh lied through my head line to fear and I've know I wo-o why amber is the colour of your energy wo-o shades of gold displayed naturally ///

wo-o amber is the colour of your energy wo-o shades of gold displaying naturally//

You live too far away, your voice reads like a bell anyway, ayyy ayyyyy ayyyy don't give up your independence yes it feels so right nothing ogod comes easily sometimes you've got to fight, wo-o, amber is the colour of your energy, wo-o shades of gold displaying naturally he he lost a thousand ships in my heart so easy still it's fine from apart and you know o that wo-o rain storm keep me away for the north wo o i've go ot to tell u some thin..." And then it ends. Just like that. And all the words that were mispelled on the song as I was typing them out all turned off the momenht that I typed, "And then it ends. Or maybe when I typed, "just like hat." But then it starts over again and when I go back through to correct for misheard words by typing them from correct to mis-heard lyrics, they start to light up again in red underlines. I've been doing oh it just all turned off just now when I typed "doing." Have to smoke a ciggie. brb

Thanks for visiting the World of Amber! What is Amber?

Amber is the fossilized resin from ancient forests. Amber is not produced from tree sap, but rather from plant resin. This aromatic resin can drip from and ooze down trees, as well as fill internal fissures, trapping debris such as seeds, leaves, feathers and insects. The resin becomes buried and fossilized through a natural polymerization of the original organic compounds.





The "Who I'd Like To Meet" was changed yesterday by the Universe from whatever version of alteration it was to a beautiful deep blue ocean colour for a very brief period last night by the Universe. I took a picture of the "Who.." using my Red Telephone and turned the camera horizontally in order to get the best angle of the rectangular square. At the time, I was intriqued as I just so happened to be working at the time on a response to a climate change discussion based on the Faint Young Sun Paradox, describing a paradox found in nature and made famous by Carl S. about the paradox of how it could be possible for liquid water to exist on the Earth during Earth's early history when the sun was only 70% its current current solar output. According to physics, the Earth should have been a snowball planet with no liquid water due to the relatively younger age of the sun (compared to its current age) and its significantly weaker capacity to heat the Earth. Yet--liquid water was found to exist on the planet describing the paradoxical nature of not only "About Me" but also "Who I'd Like to Meet" who appar to have the capacity to act as polarities or colour-complimentarities to each other which when inverted on Windows Paints changes the deep blue sea to the amber sun above.

When I retrieved this file once again today from my email after somehow uploading it, misfiling it or losing it, I noticed that the image above was listed as file number 03-28-10_0311, according to the filing system of The Red Telephone.

"Amber" is a 2001 single from the band 311 off their album From Chaos. Focusing more on their reggae roots, the song is about Nick Hexum's then fiance Nicole Scherzinger. Scherzinger appears briefly in the music video, playing in the ocean with Hexum.

I find it curious that a song called RATS by Damon Shulman that I "edited" but had to disown out of embarrassment a few years ago was found to be hiding out in a folder called "barbiplease oh it is love." I thus re-maned the song, "barbiplease oh it is love" after myself (since it was me, after all, who "edited it") which was quickly followed by the addition to my collection from the Universe of the original unedited version (I presume) but listed on Windows Media Player not as "RATS" but as "Music of the Sun" by Rihanna. Noticing that both "new" version of "RATS" were somehow mis-titled, I changed their names back to identify them as newer versions of "RATS" and to differentiate between the two files and to re-title them by calling the Music of the Sun Rihanna version of the songs, "Rat-SO" (so-named after Shulman's original song, RATS, and after the Ratso Rizzo character of Midnight Cowboy who seemed to be a cripple and a weakling) and comparatively--"weaker" compared to mind own version which I entitled as "Rats-O" to distinguish it from the other, which sounded the same as Damon Shulman's version and no different so renamed from Music of the Sun by Rihanna by the Universe to "Rat-SO" (as in, SO?). And I not understand why "Rat-SO" was re-named "Music of the Sun"; since i had always identified with the Midnight Cowboy who wants to go where the sun is shining and is much stronger than the Razzo Rizzo character until I began to realize that while I may have one time been like the Midnight Cowboy, today I am more like Razzo Rizzo due to a perceived "weakness" of Asperger, scoliosis, and living with my parents with no job. The roles have sort of "swapped." I was thereby forced to "swap" the names and change my song to "Rat-SO" the other one from the Universe originally titled Music of the Sun by Rihanno to "Rats-O."

there was another thing to and I can't remember. O-SO yeah. Notice above in the excerpt of the song Amber by 311 from Wikipedia and the title is from "From Chaos" which has been a recent theme of mind in studying chaos theory and the fact that it mentions two people, a female and male, with almost the same first names, Nick and Niichole Brbeb
