0.-1 Forward : Note to the Observer
~
What you can explore in this somewhat linear collection
of unadorned writing and Art is derived from a series
of gedankens: purely and simple thought experiments,
imagined in front of my hearth, in my home,
in Vermont, beginning around
January/February, 20/20.
~~~
The experiments came to involve not just the nature of
reality - but necessarily, apparently, as the motifs run not
just deep, but to the bottom - our consciousness and the
nature of responsibility and free will. The path was guided
by science and math; specifically regarding the mathematics
- geometries and modular concepts.
This latter bears some words of caveat: I can by personal
experience relate that these concepts, especially in
modular maths, altered i. The details one can
extract from the what follows but it becomes
apparent the observations affected
a beautiful mind - mine.
Perhaps as if i was being
observed back?
~~~~~
It was not without reluctance that i swam,
or floundered, back to the surface; our interface
of fluid dream and effervescent thought. Sensible i
was in rapture diving so deep, but returning allowed
me to breathe the breath of life back into the expiring
carrier pigeons i had tossed overboard to record the
observations. Such is the training as well as
passion as Observer.
The revelations seem to hold; the visions in deep meditations
remain perhaps insightful and these last weeks have allowed
a new generation of aha! moments of bliss as pieces seemingly
fell into place. Such has been my reward which continues
here in this very writing which I read aloud to i, myself,
feeling my soul at work at the nape of my neck.
~~~~~~~
My descriptions of my observations seem innocent enough
- but I must caution: there be dragons in the modular thoughts
that swirl and loop forever in helical helixes should you
contemplate time and reality as modular maths and
infinities and risk forgetting to get off
at the station.
And perhaps I had fortune, as the Muse might define,
in having among my perspectives the type of experience
Hendrix relates and i believe was of utility regarding these
gedankens. I had swam upstream prior, against the
flow of surrealistic desire.
The loreleian maths is seductive, beautiful, fecund and
perhaps insinuative as i remain quite cautious,
in some gently swirling trepidation
with that word of kind warning
- i thank you kindly for considering my Art,
as it is and is intended,
J. M.
