Each of the 832 photographs in these Four Albums show a scene described in the book ‘‘Zen and Art of Motorcycle Maintenance‘‘. Each photo was especially researched and photographed along the ZMM Route to show a specific ZMM Book Travel Description Passage: This passage is shown in quote marks below the respective photo. As you look at each of these photos, you will be viewing scenes similar to those that author Pirsig, Chris, and the Sutherlands might have seen, on that epic voyage, upon which the book ‘‘Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance‘‘ was based.

This album shows what I saw on my RETURN trip home (San Francisco California to Aiken South Carolina), Summer 2002. These 55 photos were taken along the Route of the “1849er’s Gold Rush to California” (In Reverse Direction). After I completed my ZMM Research, I RETURNED home by way of the Route of the ‘49’s Gold Rush. This route included the route of the “California Gold Rush Trail” (in Nevada & California), as well as portions of the Oregon Trail' all the way into Missouri. These 1849er’s Travel Route Photos, were taken AFTER I took those Photos shown in the above Album named “A Color Photo Illustrated ZMM Book, With Travel Route Sights & Scenes Explained”.

Enjoy 225 Photos of Flowers & Red Wing Blackbirds Along the ZMM Route. This Album of Color Photos shows every Flower and Red Wing Blackbird (RWBB) that I could “get within my camera sights!!” This was done in honor of the ZMM Narrator's emphasis of Flowers and Redwing Blackbirds in the book “Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance”. I was very surprised to find RWBB's the entire travel route from Minneapolis to San Francisco.

Starting Monday 19 July 2004, Mark Richardson traveled the ZMM Route, on his trusty Jakie Blue motorcycle. Mark made these 59 interesting photographs of what he saw along the way. As he toured, he pondered his own life destiny (past present future), and sought to discover his own deeper personal meaning of the book “Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance”.

The former home (~1968) of John and Sylvia Sutherland, at 2649 South Colfax Ave, Minneapolis MN, shown in 18 photos. Despite John's quite negative disparaging statements in ZMM, about their home back in Minneapolis, this same house, shown in these photos, looks to us like a wonderful, beautiful home along a very nice, quiet, shady street, in a perfectly fine Minneapolis Neighborhood!

As Requested: An Explication of Henry Gurr’s OWN Contributed Ideas To His => “Proto Theory Of How Our Mind Works , With Practical Applications.”

Professor William House (University of South Carolina Aiken Psychology), in looking at My Proto Theory posted on ZMMQ, and said, in two emails =>

A) “Thanks again, Henry. I've been through your work and wonder if you could separate out your theory into a page of abstract - just your theory. I'm familiar with most of the psych and philosophy that your reference but have some difficulty distinguishing Gurr from the others. Otherwise...Good work! .. Bill
B) Hi Henry, …. thanks for your comment and of course I'd be honored to be mentioned on your Theory Page. Thanks! Keep up the good work. PS You've got me looking back into Theory of Memory - a lot has been accomplished in the last 10 years. Thanks again, Bill

o0OOO0o

Of course I email replied to Professor House => Thanks also for good suggestions, especially => that I make an abstract that focuses on my own contribution. This I do, directly into My Theory Document (link above), starting in the Portion labeled there => ABSTRACT & SUMMARY: :

Reasons for this “difficulty distinguishing Gurr from the others” =>

A) A very large part of the foundation for My Proto Theory is from the vast work of other workers in the areas of Creativity, Mind, Gestalt Psychology, Philosophy, etc.
B) In writing my Proto Theory, I focused on building the ideas in a clear development sequence, to help the beginning reader.
C) Thus, an attempt to distinguish my work, would have added clutter / confusion, and diverted my attention from the best writing I could manage.
D) Thus by default, This Proto Theory posted on ZMMQ, landed up with a presentation that left out just what portions were my ideas.

o0OOO0o

But since Prof House asked ~”which is Gurr”, I have added (to respective portions My Proto Theory document), “marker lines such as =>

Thesis Panorama HSG Contrib.
Not Thesis Panorama HSG Contrib.
This Entire Section, Is A Thesis Panorama HSG Contrib.

So “marked” this way are each respective => Proposition, Appendix, and Various Major Portions of My Proto Theory. These are typically placed just above their respective stated Bolded Title Lines:

INSTRUCTIONS TO VIEW THESE ON ZMMQ =>After document comes up, > Do > Edit > Find > Thesis Panorama HSG Contrib. ,

Caution: After the Bolded Title Line, the continued discussion is typically a mixture of my contribution and that of others.
In over ~95% of all these cases. I have identified which parts are of my origin, by such phrases as =>

are known by other workers as
None of which are Thesis Panorama HSG Contrib.
except G) thru J).
especially as noted
except parts of d) & e).
named (by other workers)
This Entire Section Is A Thesis Panorama HSG Contrib.

I’m concerned that “marking” these ways, is clumsy & a clutter, but I can’t think of better. I hope this will not be a hold back for you, the reader. I’m open to better ideas.

Of course I’m always open to your continuing comments and suggestion. Those of you who are familiar with the ideas and literature of this field, I hope you will direct my attention to what I seem not to know!

That’s all for now, and let me know what you think.

Sincerely Henry Gurr. March 10, 2019.
ZMMQ Site Master and Professor of Physics Emeritus, University of South Carolina Aiken.
