.. there is a Way ..










.. & if there's a Way, it leads to another place,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

& if it leads to another place, then surely, it's a better place ..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.. but what is this Way, & how are we to find it..? .. each must determine this for themselves .. here, we simply present notes from our own journeys & travels ..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.. ultimately, the true Guide is inside ..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

 
 



 

 

 

 

 

 



What is the relation between a gnomon and a gnome?



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Surfaces of relative discontinuity



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The discontinuous nature of step functions is mediated by waves, as with the fourier series that lead there to. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The linear arises from the wavelets, which are always extending and impinging, or generated from within, and received from without. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At a solid surface, a fourier series has converged to a step function by both frequency and phase shifts as distances approach that zero. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The compositional force in normal existence is never seen to break down, i.e. solid objects generally hold their shape, which seems to indicate that if the surface is due to inward and outward wavelets, then those waves can pass through, largely, the other surrounding matter, with little change. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The waves impinging at the surface may not be coming at a distance, but instead arise a local action, or reaction, to some object or process at an interior ..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

".. the binary of the natural and the artificial, or of what is produced by nature and what is produced by technology, is a superficial and untenable distinction. Technology is actually a teleological phenomenon intrinsic to the cosmic evolutionary process. Its revolutionary power to restructure society is an expression of the force of evolution. The danger to humanity is not from technology as such .."

"It's a long fucking night; even the dead get bored"






- from True Detective: Night Country

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 .. Freddy Will Nietzsche said the problem with looking into the abyss is that it looks into you, but are we to take this in the form of a warning, or a challenge ..?










 

 

 .. like, maybe the abyss is supposed to look into you ..? .. how do we know what we like, if we don't know what we don't like ..? is it possible to know what one reaLLy wants if they don't know what to a void, in life ..?


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 .. certainly it's possible to ban technologies, apps, even Ways of thinking .. but it's arguably foolish to imagine that this is the last word, that somehow it solves the problem ..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.. in fact, a good argument can be made for why doing so is ultimately self-defeating, & those who have reflected on the above trajectories of thought are already some Way along developing it ..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.. parallax is a Way to determine how far away something is by gauging the difference between two different points of view, & triangulation is a similar technique .. what they have in common is that they rely on seeing things from con trasting perspectives .. 












.. there is a similar method that can be used in the realm of ideas .. but it depends as its foundation on the ability to see things from disparate positions, or in diverse Ways .. where we stand, our position with respect to a certain question or problematic is never reaLLy at one or the other extreme, but at some point, somewhere in between ..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

..we do not become stronger by avoiding, but by engaging with; undergoing & overcoming chaLLenges that emerge ahead of us on the Way ..

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Better a white hole than a black hole

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 or, on the whole, is it better to be no hole at (w)hole

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Man lies in repose, body lax, mind follows -

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

reaches out, not ready for sleep - turns to a screen: a show


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

a relatively passive subject still craving stimulation,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but too tired to get up after it himself, flying flat


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

at ease, untensed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

why the desire for additional stimulation?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If avoiding sleep, why avoid sleep?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why not?: sit with limited environmental input

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

why not?: sit still without stimulation

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

stimulation is sought out and \ or found within

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

oneself - if the subject remains awake

What does it mean to have one's actions continue to be active in an effectively infinite span of time?

.. your eyes narrow ..








.. you know either you or they will win ..









.. but u already know who it'll be ..
