The fuzziness resolves itself into clarity everyday in those 'mini-explosions' you spoke of. Unfortunately, I believe that the reification process takes place without our knowledge and more importantly without our consent. I want to be the pyrotechnician of my own explosions instead of MTV or ClearChannel or just the dumb lumbering of history.piiopahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03652802783703880961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4698533987673376572.post-7724179414873217362007-02-11T22:01:00.000-08:002007-02-11T22:01:00.000-08:00i cant spell by the way...smooth...potential....i cant spell by the way...smooth...potential....cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00862697569414323485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4698533987673376572.post-13194152881584814532007-02-11T21:59:00.000-08:002007-02-11T21:59:00.000-08:00limina is an exciting space to be in..i just hope ...limina is an exciting space to be in..i just hope that the fuzziness transforms into clarity..i guess it would no longer be limina...the more aware i become of the actions of my body, speech and mind the more often i find myself in this fuzzy zone...the path toward truth may not be smoth but i reckon the ignorantly blissful path might just be a time bomb waiting to explode..infact i think many mini bombs explode in our lives everyday..may we have 'faith'..forgive me but i cant remember the latin word..anyway it means 'to have confidence in'..or so someone told me..may we have confidence in our own potentiall to evolve..cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00862697569414323485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4698533987673376572.post-46790085979279831642007-02-11T18:42:00.000-08:002007-02-11T18:42:00.000-08:00Amanda, didn't the doctor tell you to refrain from...Amanda, didn't the doctor tell you to refrain from any and all suppositories for at least a year?

I think you put your finger in it when you pointed out the prevalence of sided speculations on the significance of virtual erections emulating the self, idealized or other. i think that it is worthy of its own post. would you care to elaborate? (Lee is working on a website where we can all author posts, comment, and comment on comments. in the meantime post it, if you'd like, wherever you may and send me the link.)<BR/><BR/>we should think a bit more about this notion of the "ideal" self versus the "real" self. perhaps, as Carl Jung suggested, the parts of our "real" self that don't fit the mold of our "ideal" self get repressed and form a "shadow" self. (I feel a Tool song coming on.) This idea is also probably worthy of a post.piiopahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03652802783703880961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4698533987673376572.post-18075980954962495672007-02-10T19:03:00.000-08:002007-02-10T19:03:00.000-08:00or, as tom waits and william s. burroughs say . . ...or, as tom waits and william s. burroughs say . . . <BR/><BR/>"when you hear sweet syncopation<BR/>and the music softly moans<BR/>t'ain't no sin to take off your skin<BR/>and dance around in your bones<BR/><BR/>when it gets too hot for comfot<BR/>and you can't get an ice cream cone<BR/>t'ain't no sin to take off your skin<BR/>and dance around your bones"amanda dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02370545043279825601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4698533987673376572.post-11123934380660602672007-02-08T10:39:00.000-08:002007-02-08T10:39:00.000-08:00I'm here, in virtual form, facade and all. As I l...I'm here, in virtual form, facade and all. As I look on with suspicion at a cheese bagel on a catering tray next to me in the webcast studio, I ponder the Limina minna lime tequilla yum tacos cheap food and my co-worker curiously reading my high school year book while a product manager waxes about the benefits and features of another God like software accomplishment. Regarding blogging and the wildly pervasive identity construction that digital communities, expression, and advertising provide, it's a tremendous leap in potential self awareness. I would also argue that this includes the potential cultivation of self. If part of our cultivation has to do with researching and reading the concepts and ideas of sociologists, philosophers, and artists, we are already in the domain of the textual mind. I know there has been a great discrediting of the "virtual" experience. I believe this is more due to how we see people using it in a fraudulent fictitious frivolous manipulative escapists desperate "fashion". So, of course, we are not here for those reasons, hence why I think this "virtual" nexus you're wanting to create has much merit. Of course it's always amusing to experience the fluff that bleeds and squirts out the internet's anus. So three wags of the genitalia to our virtual experience impacting our actual self. Now, back to thoughts of tacos.
