Hope Valley Hill - by Helios (aka Keith Kenniff)

Caesura CD cover
Well folks, for many reasons, I'm not going to be able to get Sunday's address up online but, in any event, it wasn't one of my best so here, instead, is something more uplifting, namely a plug for a musician whose work I have long-admired, Keith Kennif. He has two monikers "Helios" and "Goldmund" and also works with his wife Hollie in "Mint Julep".

Here's his website:

And here's a taster of his music. First the track that pulled me in - Hope Valley Hill from the Helios album Caesura and then a new track with Hollie. Do check him out. Enjoy.

Unitarian minister in Cambridge (UK) with sympathies towards religious naturalism, Christian atheism and neo-Parmenideism. Jazz bass player, photographer, cyclist and walker. Over the years I've tried various descriptions of "where I'm at" but, although they have been OK as far as they go, they've not fitted as well as they might. These days I find the following words of the philosopher, Paul Wienpahl, fit the bill better than anything else: 

"As I see it, the point is not to identify reality with anything except itself. (Tautologies are, after all, true.) If you wish to persist by asking what reality is; that is, what is really, the answer is that it is what you experience it to be. Reality is as you see, hear, feel, taste and smell it, and as you live it. And it is a multifarious thing. To see this is to be a man without a position. To get out of the mind and into the world, to get beyond language and to the things is to cease to be an idealist or a pragmatist, or an existentialist, or a Christian. I am a man without a position. I do not have the philosophic position that there are no positions or theories or standpoints. (There obviously are.) I am not a sceptic or an agnostic or an atheist. I am simply a man without a position, and this should open the door to detachment" Paul Wienpahl in An Unorthodox Lecture (1956)
