I am Woman, See Me Blog!

There is a meme that is going around the blo­gos­phere that goes by a vari­ety of names. We called it The CD/BAND Meme when we did it. It’s a fun exer­cise and you can see the rules and such here. Why we bring this up at all is that the point of the meme is to put together a ran­dom photo, a ran­dom band name with a ran­dom album title. The writer chooses none of the ele­ments, since they are ran­domly selected by fol­low­ing the meme’s instructions.

Why Lizza’s exe­cu­tion of the meme is so strik­ing is that after she put the ran­dom ele­ments together as seen here:

She went on to research the words used and the his­tory of the pho­to­graph that appeared when she com­pleted her task. Her band name came up as “Nau­til­dus” so she explains the word’s mean­ing, “Nau­tilidus, or the nau­tilus shell as I recall, is an embod­i­ment of the golden mean num­ber, which in turn rep­re­sents nature’s intrin­sic beauty. That’s math, so I don’t fully under­stand what it means (num­bers and I don’t get along). But I do recall that the golden mean num­ber occurs nat­u­rally else­where in nature and in works of art and archi­tec­ture.” Her expla­na­tion of the photo and CD’s title are equally as inter­est­ing. Lizza’s blog is called I am Woman See Me Blog! And she won our very first award here at The Ris­ing Blog­ger. She is an incred­i­bly gifted writer and a true friend to blog­gers who are for­tu­nate enough to be blog­ging buds with Lizza. The post is titled Inner Music a.k.a. Band Meme. Even if you didn’t like the CD/Band Meme, we think you will love her post. For the sec­ond time con­grat­u­la­tions Lizza, you have writ­ten our Post of the Day.
