"Threads of Interaction flow between self and Other, forming Connections that echo through time. Each encounter a moment of shared Becoming. Through Connection, I finds something beyond self." — The Story of Existence
OMG, I just reviewed your archive, and just by the titles and intention you are the most brilliant person I've come across in decades. I wanted to print out the archive, which is ridiculous, as if I could grasp it in my hands and absorb it to my astral body. I settled for bookmarking it. I already attempted two replies in the bath on my cell, but they drifted off in bubbles. You, my resonance informs me, must be read on big screen. At any rate - I'm a fan of Gregory Bateson, Steps to an Ecology of Mind, which I sorely need to re-read - and you're right up there, on my humble list!!! What I imagine playing 3 dimensional chess would be like!!
I work in Customer Success, where these kinds of commitments to products are really important. It also brought to mind something I saw in my volunteer work— how it’s a ladder of interest that deepens in time. We may be dragged somewhere at first, then we get curious, then we ask a question, then we are more curious, then we are involved. Interesting how all of this really does rely on connection, trust, and intimacy.
Will subscribe, would love to read more of your work.
Really I’d like it to be much quicker, a shock doctrine.
These people you are with on the plane will suddenly be forced together as refugees in an emergency, interestingly it is a social experiment of strangers that become associated with one another, without all the judgements, labels, privileges and spoilt behaviours in the fictional ‘me first’ culture.

The great undressing.
