Captain's Log, Post Mortem Report [20240927_1121]
Investing in a mud expert to impart their pottery knowledge yielded no tangible results. High-temperature ceramicists would have been appalled by the standards we witnessed, especially with the porous clay that was loaded with gas.

Our house was unprotected from the thunder's impact. It often felt like a giant stomping on the roof or a solid thud. Thunderstorms (@1000-1100m above sea level) were significant and volatile in this region. This piece, along with the artwork used in the background, captures an account of The Four Horsemen weather phenomena that occurred on this parcel of land. It was a thunder-like shockwave that approached the house, yet there was never any lightning crack before it arrived.

There was no way to discern what this phenomena was, as we had never experienced anything like it before. It was just a deep rumble that grew louder and vibrated as it approached the home. It felt like an invisible forcefield passing through, causing the contents of the house to shimmer and vibrate. I could feel the force passing through my body. The experience was similar to the shake of a light earthquake, but it felt more like an above-ground earth rake, reminiscent of the expanding shockwave rim of a nuclear explosion. That's why it was named The Four Horsemen, because of it sounded like a new wave type of Armageddon that was approaching.

The rumble was frightening due to the scale of the impact, but I grew accustomed to it as a characteristic of the land. With no other dwellings in the area, there was nothing to brace or dampen the impact of the thunder against the house. The sound of thunder rumbles were unusually prolonged in this area, lasting over a minute & travelled great distances.

I was painting the picture of this phenomenon during the time of this mud patty class. Memory of the residual stain, is not pleasant. It captured The Rampur of the Romper Stomper Room. NB ~ «pur» often signalling a «place» or «city» in many South Asian languages

 

We tried. It didn't potter-pan out. They way they smeared the name was blatant.
