Inspired By The Ideas Of Werner Erhard

And More



Werner Erhard Photo Experience

Cowboy Cottage, East Napa, California, USA

March 12, 2008



This essay, Werner Erhard Photo Experience, is the second in the trilogy The Werner Erhard Experience:
  1. Werner Erhard Video Experience
  2. Werner Erhard Photo Experience
  3. Werner Erhard Quote Experience
in that order.

I am indebted to Dennis Caudill and to Wernher Krutein and to Lyn Malone and to Kenneth Yamamoto and to Wayne Williams and to Anita Lynn Erhard and to Randy Green and to Fred Ortiz and to Robert Buelteman Jr and to Keth Luke and to Angelo D'Amelio and to Phyllis Ford and to Tom Fitzsimmons and to Silent Sensei and to Daniel McAlpine and to Michael Schropp and to James Wilson who inspired this conversation.




The spread of photographs of Werner in this catalog covers a range of years. Many people will remember Werner in the former years. Some people have only met Werner in the latter years. Most people who've experienced Werner face to face first saw him somewhere in between.

These photographs show Werner's appearance. Appropriately, Werner's appearance goeswith  transformation (as Alan Watts may have said). But, not shown in these photographs, it's Werner's speaking  which brings forth  transformation, Werner asserting "Transformation shows up in my mouth.".

This catalog of photographs of Werner shouldn't be construed simply as a compendium of snapshots. In fact, if that's how they do play to you, then I would have failed in my intention to make them available.

If you're awake to it, you'll see the face  of transformation everywhere in this catalog. The face of transformation is eternal, timeless, out of time. It's been around forever, yet it dances with us freshly and enthusiastically in all these new successive moments of now, playing, teasing, calling forth.

There's no significance to the order in which the photographs are displayed here. Some are in the order in which they first appeared in these Conversations For Transformation. Some aren't.
