Thanks for your reflections on time - ...Hey Claire! Thanks for your reflections on time - it has been food for thought for me this past week. (I haven't taken off my watch yet tho'!) I have long been fascinated by time - the fact that the past and the future are bundled up in the present, sums up my fascination ... Have fun over there! BTW I met up with Jane today re the collaboration art project - thanks for giving her my name.Kay Cookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01791873464409271216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5100640878581081403.post-30811326826105580712009-02-20T16:11:00.000+13:002009-02-20T16:11:00.000+13:00Thank Q! for the link Claire, I found Tehching Hsi...Thank Q! for the link Claire, I found Tehching Hsieh's work most interesting - in light of my own enthusiastic pursuit of atomisation an' all!<BR/><BR/>His minimalist living arrangements certainly correspond to my own, and I also found that other aspects of his work also have a startling resonance to my own endeavours.<BR/><BR/>It's interesting for me to note too, that Tehching has explored some areas of subjective experience more zealously than myself, but on the other hand, I have similarly pursued other areas of his work far far beyond his own initiatives - mind you, I should add - not always out of choice!<BR/><BR/>I agree with your intuition about the contradiction in presenting what is supposedly a private endeavour as a public performance. In my view, that is a flaw - Tehching's work is more an 'act' of atomisation, rather than a 'fact' of his Reality. As such, it is not entirely Truthful is it.<BR/><BR/>I'm inclined to suppose that your indignation at the proposal that Life could be shrunk down to expand Art in this way is more a reflection of your natural inclination towards a holistic view! As I mentioned elsewhere, the dalek view is that the masculine pole is linear - it is a specialist, it knows a great deal about very little. Perhaps it's the "knowing a great deal' that is the key to creating Art, more than whether that knowledge is holistic (generalist) or linear (specialist) in character ...?<BR/><BR/>Anyway, your post suggests to me that whilst your trip may've imposed a rejuvenating rest, your BBS was nevertheless generating a massive logjam of ideas!one billion dalekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08792146398030529926noreply@blogger.com
