Dear friends of Translucidmindgallery and the translucid human mind,
continuing the special on AI and now focusing on the question “What is it that makes us human”, I will start this month with a series of blogs trying to find some answers to this highly important question of our times. The first blog is my first answer to this question: Dreaming!
Read my blog, find some books I read throughout my life on the topic and find the amazing most recent scientific articles for which you will find links to the sites where they are published.
I wish you all peaceful and delighthearted holidays.
My best wishes,
Susanne Steines, 01.12.2024.
Not commenting on politics in general nor climate related topics simply because of lack of insight, I yet think – with the insight of years long of scientific readings into this topic – that one of our biggest responsibilites in these years is to be aware of the presence of AI and its unstoppable progress and dangers. All of us should be wanting to be in control of what AI does to ourselves and our lives, communities and to the planet. We are all Humanity together. We should not leave it to those with the power and wealth to control AI and make ultimate decisions on Humanity’s destiny. The reasons for this are obvious, many have warned in recent years, the most prominent and insightful voice now being Nobel Prize 2024 for physics, Geoffrey Hinton, of whom I recommend an interview in the links to important news.
This month, I highlight Translucidmind’s special on AI – collecting news links, books, articles and past blogs published on our site. This topic is in my eyes the most pressing of all in these times, which needs most attention and serious involvement of thought and knowledge for the benefit of all of us.
At the same time, I continue to put my energy, heart and passion out there to share my life project, the “Ambihemispherical Holosophy and Revolution of Humanity”, with all of you through my art and poetry. I am convinced – and it is neuroscientifically and spiritually wideley proven – that naturally developped life long practicing of ambihemispherical synchronization will help us all to find a more peaceful, skillful , healthier and satisfying future, all of us, and, more so, a dignified humanist answer to transhumanism.
In that way, all my ambihemispherical artwork, poetry, paintings, drawings, and the printings of my art on silk fabrics are most naturally part of my life long endeauvour to compose threats of understanding, a context, text, textile art, weaving of words and energies through my art and poetry hopefully permeating daily life with beauty, strength, resilience, mental focus, most benevolent and delighthearted spirit and insight.
My digital work of mirroring and assembling my paintings and sequencing them reveals unexpected appearances and new forms, created by simultaneities beyond my intention, surprising synchronicities loaded with their specific energies and beauty. In my 2024 large sequencing patterns we are reminded of the magic that traditionally handwoven textile most naturally brings about. The new collection of long, large size scarves remind of traditional Mexican weavings, and are my reminiscence to my favorite textile, namely of the Mexican rebozo.
Find my blog on the poetry of Driftword Weavings and the inspiration of the rebozo here:

Don’t forget to check out and discover Susanne’s most important reads on art, physics, neuroscience and philosophy for this months which she shares monthly, all links on translucidmind.com in the News sections.
Susanne Steines is thrilled to show at the same time the new models of her ever growing Silk Fashion Collection of Tuluminosa.com – Steines’s paintings printed on finest Italian handrolled natural parachute silk. Come in and feel the lightness and joyfulness of these beautiful pieces of printed art.
As far as for the website with its archive of artworks, texts, blogs and always growing News – link section, in which writer and artist Susanne Steines shares her favorite and most important reads for her work, we will update them monthly from now on, always informing you with a monthly Newsletter about the updates and events going on in the gallery as well as new artwork.
In The House Of Presence there will be one all year lasting core theme exhibition with changing events and changing walls and the growing collection of Tuluminosa.
The House of Presence – the house of the artist, the artist present in her studio, the house of life, the house of poetry, the poetry of art –
Art is life. And maybe, the living memory of all human life is in the arts, be it in prehistoric cave painting, early pottery, first written letters and signs, first melodies chanted. The art’s poetry keeps all past life present, or, as Mexican Nobel Price winner for literature, Octavio Paz wrote specifically about the genre of the poem:
“The poem is The House of Presence”.
Translucidmindgallery is a new concept of a living and happening gallery with its physical home in The House of Presence, Vejer de la Frontera, Spain, the house and studio of the artist, writer and poet Susanne Steines.
“L’artiste présente chez elle” – translate the French sentence both ways: the artist presents at her home, and the artist is present at home with herself.
You are invited to share personal moments with the artist, with friends of the artist, other artists, writers, musicians, with art in all its expressions in The House of Presence. Share a matcha tea together in clay cups made by the artist. Or have a wine at the many happening special evenings in the gallery-art studio.
Or just come in and get enchanted by the art, by the artist’s prints of her paintings on finest handrolled Italian silk, see how it feels to indulge in the light weight natural parachute silk and to wear the colors and energies of those ambidextrous mouvements every day .
The Gallery is not only the home of ambihemispherical artist Susanne Steines and her philosophy Ambihemispherical Holosophy in all expressions of the arts, it is home to the art and scientific news link archive as well as the Essay and Artwork archive of the artist, Translucidmind.com, to her Silk Fashion Design Tuluminosa.com and to what might be the start of a world wide movement for a more humanist planet: Humanissexier.org.
We open Translucidmindgallery in The House of Presence with an exhibition of Ceramics by Mexican ceramist Gustavo Perez and ceramics by Susanne Steines. A long time friendship between both artists, both present in 2009 in Gallería Acá in Oaxaca, México, where Steines first invited Gustavo Perez and French ceramist Brigitte Pénicaud to present with her, later inviting Oaxaca based artists trying to help them promote their work.
We are pleased to present some of the artist’s personal collection of Gustavo Perez’ ceramics together with her own artistic rendering with this medium. Find a text of Susanne Steines about Perez and excerpts on an interview between both on translucidmind.com. Be warmly welcome in the The House of Presence and enjoy!
