Zero Maximini above is about as pared down as you can get, culminating in simple geometric forms. There isn't even a board for this study.. Why sez you to I? 'Cuz a board would set boundaries. Part of this puzzle can be played on the kitchen table while the other half can be in the study. I don't agree fully with Hamlet's statement, that, speaking of himself,
I could be bounded in a nutshell, and count myself a king of infinite space, were it not that I have bad dreams. (Act ii sc. ii).
Yako/okay, bad dreams aside, according to Oriental thought, less is better than more, so, Hamlet got it half right. Minimalism of any art forces artists to dig deeper into their media, whereas if they had bulk goods, their brains would be mushed into superficial bulk podge-hodge. In some martial systems, there are hundreds of forms. In wing-chun kung fu there's only three forms and this art has lasted hundreds of years because fewer makes one rabid enough to dig deep. Shōtōkan master Funakoshi wrote that, today’s students, even though they have tons of info available to them, are nonetheless “broad and shallow,” whilst in the old times “The ancient masters remained narrow but deep.”
By using Spartan ergonomic efficiency, there is no extraneous waste of mindmotion whatsoever. The minimalist material conveys the maximum amount of meaning across time, fostering introspection and monkish mulling meditation and contemplation (e.g., 'to be bent is to be straight.' - go urefig). For this reason, the seemingly meager, stripped down to the wire data as seen in Zero maximini above, As simple-minded as it appears, according to yin yang theory, is actually a powerhouse of compact streamlined data that can deliver front-end loads of boulder-size knowledge, understanding and wisdom if you know how to ponder and reflect upon such things. When you ruminate upon such electro-sizzling elucidations, you will find you will have much room to maneuver your illuminated mind.
This frugality is a technique used a lot in the East. The sparse Zen rock gardens of Japan, wing-chun k-fu’s three foundational fist forms, even Zhu Dao, the all-encompassing flawless, Lord's Prayer, all testify that from within these tiny highly concentrated pinpoints of illumination the potential for mighty quasar bursts of understanding will occur, so learn to muse upon them well. Less covers develops and forces a wider mindrange of wit, ingenuity, scrutiny, inquiry and consequently a depth of knowledge. Bulk generic learning produces a bunch of *stultified eggheads that cannot think out of their respective boxes because they don't know they are in a box to begin with...
*Stultify: 'To be made stupid, systematically, through a learning process.'

I. Introduction
At the request of friends and family, this portfolio was composed for presentation purposes. I will explain my art a bit. I am a martial arts coach with decades of experience. Consequently, I have studied many oriental concepts, philosophies and cultural art forms. In particular, I am attracted to the streamlined concepts found in the intuitional, as opposed to rational thought patterns as accorded in Zen Buddhism. My instructors pointed out that Zen is not a philosophy or a religion per se, but rather a state of being and so it is with my art forms. E.g., when one puts on the car brakes, one does not think, "Gee, I think I'll brake now." No, one just 'does,' the essence of Zen art. Thus, these forms represent direct transmission of the visual in the mind to the media as close as possible. Every art piece has a story behind them naturally as well.
The representational art forms cited below grew out of my adventures in Japanese bonsai but being in Arizona at the time the heat killed the trees so I “borrowed” bonsai concepts and applied them to the previously mentioned forms. One art form that also attracted me is that of the Japanese Zen garden, like the famous one at Ryo-anji Temple, Kyoto Japan (var. spellings, see 1 A-1C up and left).
In this meditational garden, the thin gravel and 15 rocks are the “fewer” accoutrements that actually represent “more” power for deeper aesthetics and contemplation. Subsequently, efficiency and maximinimalism is the hallmark of these presented arts. And to create diversity for a wider vision for these pieces, the following forms are all are based on sparse leaness, bleakness, plainness, austere absence—where starkness ultimately abides—to account for the ravings mad of a certain fevered midnight ink swirling dervishing writiac.
The key it seems to the survival rate of an art, any art, strangely enough, is to be found in the minutiae of the specific number of set rocks found in in the particularly acute Japanese rock gardens. This is observed by David A. Slawson, master gardener of things Japanese as we shall see.
In their efficient, bare, tight-knit rigorous ascetic fashion, Japanese Zen gardens are quite intangibly abstract and highly representational when it comes to assigning names and meanings to large, meditational-inspiring rocks as they are placed in broken-rhythm aesthetically and powerfully about.
Just as America has Mt. Rushmore that endows patriotic meaning and Arizona's Monument Valley noted for its lonely unadorned sandblasted stone sentinels, and El Capitán of Yosemite revered for its sheer granite wall, so in Japan, China and India, large rocks that fit certain descriptions were sought after for placement in magnificent gardens. They were assigned specific ceremonial, spiritual and mythical names such as the “Master rock” and “Never Aging rock.” In ancient India, there were thousands of named rocks, the naming of which, it was thought, represented the labeling of all the spirits that inhabited the cosmos. By the time the idea of rock gardening hit China and Japan however, the number of these named rocks was vastly reduced. A quote by Sensei Slawson may help here:
When we read in the Illustrations that ‘in India at the lake called Mānasarovara . . . rocks numbering 8,631 were set, with each of the Eight Great Dragon Kings in charge of more than 1,000 rocks,’ we sense the desire to represent exhaustively, in a one-to-one correspondence, all the multitudinous entities that make up the macrocosm. The number of named rocks is reduced to 361 in China, and finally to 48 in Japan. There are at least two plausible reasons for this. First, 48 was no doubt a manageable number for a working vocabulary of named rocks, as the Japanese syllabary contained, at least by one count, 48 phonetic characters. Second, and more important, the reduction represents a move away from the encyclopedic listing of entities in the macrocosm toward a more aesthetic presentation of a world in microcosm, where fewer forms are potently used to re-create selected experiential qualities or tones of feeling (p. 133).

Ye Olde Floral of the Story– Many brilliant minds would agree with Confucian Scholar Mencius when he says, “There is nothing as clear as that which is dimly seen.” And so 'it'tis'. Often, the obvious things are the ones most hidden,' 'things which nobody by any chance ever observes.' As the Lotus blooms out from the mud, see the glimmering, sparkling, overflowing florescenting hidden secrets that, by the Divine Hand, are abundantly made manifest in the ordinary. Enlightenment occurs when one suddenly 'epiphanizes' and 'learns' to 'perceive that which cannot be seen by the eye,' seeing the unseen - a universe in a single flower (below) - this lucid moment of awareness is an imperative for bonum vitae, the 'vital life.' Thus, it is written:
It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter (Proverbs 25.2 kjv).

Come with me I say to thee upon a pilgrimage of soul and mind,
To Eden’s corner where solid shadows reflect eternities unseen Divine... --Lin Kwei Zhiing
In old China as elsewhere Fu Dogs (below) guarded the Imperial palaces and their grounds including the great gardens. Ever vigilant, their fiery watchful eyes would cast about and bar the impudent—those who would dare intrude upon the revered ground with an improper attitude and so desecrate its sacred spirit, lest they be rend to pieces. Tread lightly O' ye who enter herein this Courtyard—this Mirror of your Soul, as your Fu Canis is as yet on eternal duty.
Gardens that were, are and yet shall be . . .
Gardens of spirit, mind, body & soul come in a multitude of fractals, forms, themes, solids and shadows. They can be seen and held in full or can be elusive and graspless as the fleeting images of a mind at midnight. The images that follow whatever abstract shape they take are gardens of the heart, inner mirrory visions of the soul made apparent for all to peer into, and so into their own souls.
II. On Zenetics and their Glyphs
Zenetic is a compound of two words, Zen and kinetic. All this art, based on minimaximums, is meant for meditation much as the Japanese Zen gardens afford. The art forms adhere as close to the original visual vision in my mind. Kinetic refers to motion; the art forms lead your eyes to dance.
IIb. Well, I’ll be.... I won't Glyph You
To understand a bit of the Stained Glass Impression cited above and other compositions, we need to look at its alphaglyphs. Glyphs to Zen Kinetics (ZK) are the thing. Glyphs are basic symbols (our alphabet in this case) within an agreed upon set of icons representing writing. They are singular in that they add up to the spelling of a word or give meanings of what is written. Glyphs are picture writings and rep concepts and objects, but our ZK font, as seen in Stained Glass up yonder, takes care of such things anyway being a bit of a hybrid–glyph and written albeit fancied up alphabet.
Now concerning Stained Glass Impression above, the ZK ‘glyphfonts’ used therein follow intuition guidelines and are based on minimaximums, where “less is more,” which anchors all the fluid highly conceptual Alphabet font arts. Everhow, they are delicately conceptual and do not fit the regular description of ‘set in stone’ alpha-betas in the sense of trying to “write” something logically out to “pop off” a word or sentence or two. As mentioned, ZK fonts find their mooring in intuition and the flowing state of the mind, not concrete reasoning that seeks a proven conclusion.
ZK reads from left to right on all occasions, or top to bottom always starting on the left (unless otherwise noted). Whether the letters are singular or make for a whole word, each is contained within a box. Also, as is the case, whether the words or sentences are horizontal or vertical they hinge around a central axis line, the boxes can be any length. What is the reasoning behind the size of the boxes that may not match, one being longer or shorter than the other still reading left to right or left to right top to bottom?
The answer is Alphabeta Glyphing with Gestalt-ism, where one scans for patterns, not specifics, so the ZK fonts give “impressions” of words and thoughts, freeing the reader up from expecting concrete specifics. ZK are like water, flowing, not etched into a rock. It is a poetic form of writing yet avoids deconstructive analysis. Gestalt Psychology states that the mind looks for patterns and symbols for reasons and actions, not just straight thinking per se. The point? Driving a car on a rainy night when you can hardly see, suddenly you see a stop sign, its “shape, its form,” and you know to stop. The pattern-icon of the octagon-shaped stop sign is the main idea, giving one the intuitional impression to stop.
Hence, the alphabetnators must know what they are conveying, the reader receiving compact compressed impressions, not laser-guided pin-point specifications. ZK fonts may are akin to the Japanese poetic form Haiku, mega-meanings are mashed into a 5-7-5 syllabic pattern (I dost believe).
Ergofore (dbl. 'therefore') ZK’s are set upon intuition, based on the art of jie huiyan yitai dao (“the way of the interperceptual mind set”). This means things interperceptual: “intercepting, intelligent, perceptive mental attitude”–the reader will need this to cipher the fonts out not only for messages but also for impressions and feelings. That is why they are abstract and colorful as to evoke many angular attitudes, tones and moods.
Not based on solids but motion, ZK is both font and art form, a kinetic in-motion fluid media–of words within words, hidden by color and geometrics, poems of shades, tints and hues, feelings, evocations, moods, contemplations, realizations, One’s eyes skip around as well as one’s mind to read the conceptual alphabet-art text. As an artistic form, true art seeks to stimulate one’s conscience thus the art labor’s one.
Thus, the Stained Glass Impression (Psalm 25.16-18). The Psalm SGI passage is to be read from left to right, sometimes non-linear (the box rectangles in this script art do not necessarily line up), each rectangle of differing sizes holding a particular word or two. Boxes are not uniform due to word sizes and the ‘kineticicity’ of the broken rhythm art form which is meant to dance your eyes around as they try to focus. But fluid 'real-time' perception is always in motion; it is the rational mind that ‘halts,’ trying to piece things together resulting in chuck-a-clunk-a-chunkeling ‘paralysis through analysis.’ The ‘motion’ of the composition, due to quickie perception shifts, is what makes the painting spirited and effervescent, ‘alive,’ making the composition quite springy.
Colors are one’s own choice. The highly charged versicoloring breaking rhythm font design fires evoking eye kinetic chequering motions, giving the flat 2D projection pulsating 3D vivacities and is meant to be, in its overall composition, “complexly minimalist,” simple, yet profound, sparsity producing abundance. Eyes ruggedly skip about the fracturing hue landscapes, yet are smoothly transfixed upon them. The rational fixates upon set colourations. The intuition kaleidoscopes on unimpeded, jagged disordered luminosities seeking composed prismatic order. Sharp-edged psychedelics askew, acute, yet geochromatically square, spectruming solidities stir non-existent aftercoloring after image shadows. The jumbling florescenting 'pick up stick' picture of no-picture tells nothing, yet the fragmented hot-colored construct glisters cohesively, chromatically makes itself felt.
I. Zenetic Puzzles: Puzzles of No Puzzles
The following “puzzles” do not fit the regular description of a puzzle in the sense of trying to work something logically out to finish a picture of some sort. They are based on intuition and the flowing mind, not concrete reasoning that seeks a proven conclusion. Rather these “puzzles of no puzzles” have no rules, no regulations and no outlines to follow. There is not a set “standard” that must be adhered to, maintained or concluded upon to produce “the puzzle.” There is no “right or wrong” in them as in turning out a “correct image” or “effect.”
More so, they exist in and consist of solely of “doing” the creative act, when intuition occurs as when the master of calligraphy dashes off a drawing, or the poet splendors a line or a swordmaster makes a committed cut. This is the swift, svelte intuitional “doing” aspect of Zen as opposed to the always-divisive bulk clog-prone rational thinking mode.
Like the unmoving, unflinching Zen rock gardens of Japan, the highly abstract Zenetic puzzles derived from the Zen gardens are both minimalist and stark in scope. However, unlike the Zen “static” gardens one might walk around to get a different perspective and so illumination in the puzzles where stark micro meets and represents bountiful macro, the “puzzle garden” is in a constant state of living, intuitive fluency much like swordplay and calligraphy. “Going with the flow” is the kinetic “Zenetic” essence of these puzzles. Hence this is the marvel of the “puzzle of no puzzle”—a “puzzle’s puzzle,” without frame nor reference. They are usually worked out on a lazy Susan to turn them about offering those different angles of approach.
There are two theories about play, the more complex the mind, the greater necessity for the 'simpler' the play. Masters in many fields acknowledge that “The height of complexity runs into simplicity,” so says Sifu Bruce Lee. So, these pleasurable entanglements, “toys” like a kid set of blocks, are to be enjoyed.
They evoke the imagination, moods, ideas and so forth, the colors delighting the eyes and the woodiness giving a tactile workout as well. However sparse, the Zenboards and their pieces are made to move about as one’s contemplations and moods shift about, from fun to deep and broody things. They are solely a reflective mirror of the player’s mind and soul at the time of “adhering playing meditation,” continually in flux, advancing and receding, expanding and contracting and so on.
Intuition is the backbone of all art, from great theatrical performances to Indiana 500 racing. The intuitional flow state of doing is what makes these puzzles “work,” so they are a definite departure from the classical notion of a “put it together” assembly store bought puzzle as there are no directions or limitations, except that which the player makes up on his or her own in light of their feelings and moods. Thus, Zenetic puzzles can be fluent or choppy, languid or pressed, depending on one’s mind-frame.
