Across the Water

Soon right away
Don’t get left behind
Night turns around

Lights illuminate on the opposite river bank, as the mighty Mississippi flows by points of historic significance and cultural lore.

“A fight between the blue you once knew; floating down, the sound resounds; around the icy waters underground.” – Syd Barrett

Golden Touch

Linear progress
Intentional object
Heavily influenced

Mythology here localizes on the urban surface, influencing the cultural environment. As such, myth mitigates the crisis of modern alienation by offering resonating chambers harmonically tuned to cause destructive interference.

“History, too, has a penchant for giving birth to itself over and over again, and those whom it appoints agents of change and progress do not always accept their destinies willingly.” – Aberjhani

Abandoned

Live oak
Boarding house
Correlation of elements

On the fringe of the Rapides Cemetery in Pineville Louisiana is an old deserted boarding house. Under the boarded-up structure is a potter’s field.

“Beauty is not all there is of poetry. It must contain the truth. It is not simply an oak, rude and grand, neither is it simply a vine. It is both. Around the oak of truth runs the vine of beauty.” – Robert Green Ingersoll

Signs of the Night

Concordant tangle
Thematic oppositions
Configurative unity

On transitional boundaries awareness intensifies, as associated emotions are more strongly experienced.

“Solitude has the peculiar and original power not of isolating us but of projecting our whole existence out into the vast nearness of the presence of all things.” – Martin Heidegger

Vectorial Direction

Certain divisions
Essential operation
Thought support

The windows in this relatively tall building have an iridescent quality, showing a luster resembling that of mother-of-pearl modulated when seen from different angles.

“If we choose meaning, the meaning survives only deprived of that part of non-meaning that is, strictly speaking, that which constitutes in the realization of the subject, the unconscious.” – Jacques Lacan

Barmaid

Serving needs
Good impression
Complete attention

Extending art into all domains, the fusion of empirical concepts within a perceptual field produces aesthetic delight by imparting reality to abstract understandings.

“As adults, we all create a persona based on our experiences, where we grew up and how we want to be perceived.” – Ryan Lambie

Segmentary

Quantum flow
Molar converter
Economic transaction

What is real? What is not? An iterative feedback loop revolves around an occupation engaged with interest and care, embedded in the phenomenology of artistic creation. Traveling across the landscape’s infrastructure, you are still going forwards.

“The material must be sufficiently deterritorialized to be molecularized and open onto something cosmic, instead of lapsing into a statistical heap.” – Gilles Deleuze & Felix Guattari

Urbanistic

Different forms
Necessary pressure
Human geography

For Schelling, the reality and ultimacy of nature approached from an idealistic perspective builds upon a model of human freedom. This freedom invokes action as initiated by the subject, not deterministic but still in response to external contingencies. Part of the puzzle centers on the praxis of creative intuition as a function of action.

“There’s something about arriving in new cities, wandering empty streets with no destination.” – Charlotte Eriksson

Developing Awareness

Quietly mutating
Material constructions
Non-illusionistic domains

Randomness organized, extracted, and reassembled into a coherent whole over time echoes the process of experiential manifold perception. Each unique encounter has its own characteristic chorography and modulation that develops through acquaintance.

“I believe we are a field of energy, dancing for itself. There is no me. There are just things happening and there are clusters of tetrahedrons moving around together.” – Jim Carrey

Perceptual Field

Elements existing
Individual objects
Particular universal

Choice is conditioned by natural inclination emanating from ambient conditions. For this reason, Schelling prefers an idealistically motivated realism that preserves complex phenomena over any metaphysical idealism which would reduce and simplify the richness of experience.

“Artists do not isolate their concepts or free them in pure abstraction from all traces of other mental elements. They exist buried in the general mixed content of consciousness.” – W.T. Stace
