What is self anyway
I fail to have a decent image of myself beyond a silhouette and the clothes i frequent or are currently wearing
The mirror test is usually a way to tell if something has an inherent ability to understand the concept of self, but there's tines where my reflection or shadow can be startling, whether it's because it takes a second for recognition or that it just intrinsically feels like it shouldn't be
I've spent years working on things that reflect and play with light, it's not the hardest to avoid having myself in a reflection on a workpiece, in some cases i deemed it "unprofessional" although the act of even some fraction being captured is a part of what makes some pictures human, not fully detaching from the person that viewed and framed the photo
And yet, thinking back, one of, if not the only time i felt whole was looking out into the void of the ocean, seperated by the blank white of the sky. A lulling emptiness before what would ultimately unravel me. How time hasn't fully woven back together
There are times where rounding to 0 is easier than to 1
Far past when i was no longer able to see the stars unassisted, although the stars hardly reflect how i can be, the stars being something grand despite the distances being inconceivable
How do you craft a new way of being without being known. How careful must you be for the chrysalis not to break prematurely
The more you learn about people and how society works, the more you dissociate from who you used to be and become true to yourself. I find that beautiful.
I am an overthinker, and sure, sometimes it overwhelms me, but I would not trade my endless stream of thoughts and dreams per minute for a mediocre mind.
Listen: https://open.spotify.com/episode/51NlH2kOJkwIneAPAHdykW # The Art of Repetition: Revisiting Our Understanding of Life and Creativity In the world of art and philosophy, few concepts hold as much weight as repetition. It’s a theme that resonates not just through the brush strokes of a painting or the frames of a film but also in the very framework of human experience. As we embark on a season of enlightening discussions and cinematic reflections, we find ourselves at the intersection of art, politics, and the profound human condition. Matthew Sweet's engaging dialogue with art critic TJ Clark illuminates the need for repeated viewing in appreciating a work of art. Clark’s new collection, *Those Passions: On Art and Politics*, delves into the depths of this necessity. He bravely asserts that true understanding cannot be achieved on a superficial glance. Much like life itself, art demands our attention and time, urging us to peel away layers until we emerge with insights previously obscured. In parallel, the BFI is hosting a two-month celebration of Chantal Akerman’s pioneering works, featuring the newly restored *Jeanne Dielman, 23, Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles*. Akerman’s masterpiece captures the mundane and often crushing routine of a Belgian housewife, inviting audiences to sit in the discomfort of stillness and routine. The film isn’t merely a performance; it’s a meditation on the complexities of domestic life, a relentless cycle underscoring that the extraordinary often lies within the repetitive and the mundane. Philosophy steps into this conversation via Lucy Bolton, a thinker whose insights into film navigate the intricate tapestry of life and art. The re-issue of Akerman's film is not just a revival; it is an invitation to reconsider how we engage with the visual arts and, by extension, our own lives. We are called to witness the routines and rituals that define us, to sit in the stillness, and to witness how repetition can breed a deeper understanding and appreciation of existence. Clare Carlisle, an academic and philosopher, furthers this dialogue with her examination of Søren Kierkegaard's musings on repetition as a defining characteristic of human life. In *Philosopher of the Heart: The Restless Life of Soren Kierkegaard*, Carlisle sheds light on the existential importance of repeating actions and decisions. It’s through repetition that we shape our identity, construct meaning, and face the existential weights of our choices. Anthony Seldon enters the fray with his engaging narratives on British political life, notably through works like *Truss At 10: 49 Days That Changed Britain* and *Johnson at 10: The Inside Story*. Seldon's contributions highlight that the repetition of political cycles often mirrors our day-to-day existences. Each election, each policy shift, reflects the routines and crises we face as a society, urging us to engage more profoundly with our political landscapes. In this rich tapestry, Neil Brand's musical talents add a striking layer to this exploration. As a composer and silent film accompanist, Brand brings the power of music into the conversation, elevating Akerman’s cinema experience and deepening the reflections on the narratives unfolding onscreen. Music, much like art, also dances through the paths of repetition—creating resonances that echo long after the notes have faded. As we immerse ourselves in this season of cinematic treasures and philosophical discourses, let us not overlook the profound beauty of repetition. It is not merely a trend but a fundamental aspect of our artistic, political, and personal lives. This engagement invites us to dive deeper into what it means to be human, calling upon us to recognize the artistry in our daily routines and the lessons that lies within the repeated patterns of our existence. Join us in this exploration of art, politics, and life—a journey that enriches our capacity to see, feel, and understand the multifaceted world around us. Repetition, it turns out, is not just a device; it is the very rhythm of life.
