Subject: rumblings of the near distant



images, it's like we are imprisoned behind something that seems to be in
front of something that shrouds something else behind it, the image of a
mirror seen in the image of a mirror, the mirror image of a
(ratio-normal.ized) mirror image?

maybe it's always only images which we must create, create simply from the
reactive reflex of active reflection, for without creation there are no
images, there is just the there is, there is just the there is and just
that only

is there really any dis.covering, really?

as "sun" is a metaphor for the image of the sun that could never be a real
"sun", "there is" no real sun, it could never have traffic with something
as odd as a "light" wave - -

light is only - -

which, as i type this, i rapidly see why we must reflect every thing back
to heraclitus, to the first image of the image, as the old image is the new
image

to find that font that created heraclitus as the image of heraclitus

and sophia follows after, not before

or maybe, to paraphrase sartre's 'freedom', i.e. that the only freedom we
do not possess is that we are not free to not be free, that we are
condemned to a radical freedom, as here, we are condemned to images, for
example, here the image of freedom, to a radical image "enforcing" a
radical freedom, one "in" which we wish were a bit less free, that had a
few protective walls of concept bricks in surround, walls on which we might
paint real images of real images of real images

or golden apples of the sun

help, rick!
