“Don't concentrate on the finger or you'll miss all the heavenly glory”
Bruce Lee
The hands must keep moving, the mind panoramic and above, the rest will come. I follow my nose, knowledge through action; informed by whisper, rumour and supposition.
Perception is everything, each our own personal realities and then the broader concord of society. Objectivity, evidence and scrutiny only have meaning if we decide they do.
The inexorable draw of logic and reason must be resisted at all costs. There is no space or time for that here; only instinct, the move towards negative capability.
Feeling, tone, and affect are my waymarkers - a heightening of the senses. The comedic, too; we often resort to laughter when confronted with the radical or absurd, so this frequently serves as validation, as litmus test.
Everything is everything, and everything leads to entropy. So why not let go, embrace the inevitable and get a head start?
Medium agnostic, the ideas dictate the actualities, I am as much a cognitive editor as anything else. These ideas are relentless and unbidden; everything, everything, all at once, an unwavering torrent, which ones to pursue is the question.
Throughout all my work is a recurrence of breaking down the rational, confronting the orthodox, all the while filtered through the random.
