I must admit, Mark, I was surpassed by the name mullimismist. I can't see how the word was built, but it does come from the Isle of Mull on the East of Scotland in the northern British Isles.

what on earth would a mullismism be? I guess some sort of saying, proverb or custom for the people of the Isle. If that's true, then a mullismismist would be a scholar or practitioner of these customs.

Mark,

This picture frames an inner story that one attempts to read in the reflection. Is it a person or the reflection of a painting of a person in the background.

Asher,

Mullismist - could be a follower of the things / attitudes / practices that are done on Mull.

its not a super serial* proposition - just a bit of a play.

cheers

Asher,

my wife blocks the light of the refection on the glass from another window - beyond the window - a divided landscape - in terms of usage and ownership.

What does it do after its fallen though? Bit hard to get back up... Maybe it doesn't seem too long for its friends to follow it.

Seems to be a meditative kind of place if you're thinking about rocks with friends?
