Tied within the knot of the very notion of “experiment” is the conception of a failure to . . . A failure to prove, a failure to see. It must be known, and by this we ought to mean felt, that failings are not bad. They are the ground by which anything new may be seen. To notice entails that we do not see everything, but we indeed see something. Each person sees things differently. Experimentation is always an opening up of possibility. It is not a foreclosure of ways of seeing, but to inquire into what is being seen; an inquiry into what we notice around and about us. These “noticings” are how we come to construct a world. It is right there, then, where there is any hope of making, seeing, new worlds out there. These are our successes. Ones in and of the rubble of our strivings - our failings. Of our experimentation. It is there where we notice and move towards different ways to feel about how we see ourselves in and outside of these worlds. Therein lies the possibility of a new understanding.
