    meaning solidified in form
    Project: Polytopia


    lightness and darkness
    when the mind is asleep, but in dream, without the eyes to distract, you will be aware of more connections that symbolism and metaphor have.

    the creative pursuit is easier in these states - so capture your thoughts when in darkness.

    staring at a blank white piece of digital paper, on the screen vertically, is improper for fluid access to your uninhibited wonderings of your mind.

    best to capture while you are in bed - in the between realm of letting go, or on the impulse of becoming again.

    command + s can distract captures. don’t be distracted by the fear of non attachment.

    you are more productive when letting etiquette be on the outside, while your impression of good is fueling the drive. ++

    editing on the fly is another trait for loss of inspiration. mistakes and errors are best gained and examined on completion of your capture. distilling your unedited thoughts will allow you to pick up the meaning in between.

    once examined you may find the idea was not as powerful or thorough, as first thought.
    don’t be deterred, as reconstruction is needed for great ideas to become of use.

    perception of many ideas can be gathered into one stream, condensed and purified through your filter of hindsight and extrapolation.

    command + s, saved your thoughts. now action it tomorrow when your mind is fresh. time passing is patience being wise. filtering your impressions on thoughts compiled will let you define who you are and what you stand for.

    being satisfied on habit is static and necessary, while forcing pressure on the environment around you, to inspire your ethics is controversial … but necessary for awakening.

    team play is vital for compounded effort, doubling the factor of force by 2, but seeking comfort in it will decrease output by 2. remembering you are 1 left over, may keep you isolated for a while, but getting back on the throttle of enthusiasm with independent focus and drive, is the only true way forward.

    releasing cryptic seeds is meaning without form. allowing birth from unknowing recipients, is enlightenment waiting to happen. the power of potential will be realized by those that need it only.

    forcing compliance on the frame of the established is an unethical approach that is on the way out.

    letting go is the only way to really retrieve your passion before it’s lost.

    (from the depths of uncertain mumblings, do you uncover truth, waiting to be understood.)

    +1 "forcing compliance on the frame of the established is an unethical approach that is on the way out."

    This approach is unethical indeed, because it aims to anchor thought and "permissible" action to an unchangeable past, the precedent, and it acts as a block to progress.

    It negates the almost universal truth that now we know more than in the past - knowledge being understanding with certainty - and the universal prediction that in future we will know more than today.
