- Ordines AppetentalesThe material yoke is the castellan of the mundane appentencies. These desires can be recapitulated depending on three classes of animalian development: lower, middle, and upper. The former two classes exclusively demonstrate the Lesser Order of Appetencies, while the latter class introduces the Greater Order of Appetencies. While animalia are complex and seemingly have a… Read more: Ordines Appetentales
- Additional Complexity: Iterative Metaplanetic ObservationThis is a companion to the introduction post of the Metaplanetic Observation Method. Here the observer’s function at each step depends on insights from the previous iteration.
- Introduction to the Metaplanetic Observation MethodPlané, or Greek for “wandering,” is the root of Metaplanetic Observation, which is the structured method for observing and harnessing imaginative wandering. The method works in sessions, usually starting from a “seed thought,” or beginning iteration; the user allows the mind to rapidly and cyclically ruminate on the beginning iteration with the intent of connecting spontaneous ideas which emerge from the unconscious plané––and after filtering via conscious observance to separate the wheat from the chaff, you’re left with an insight from the original “seed.”
- Dialogic Choreography – Mathematics and StorytellingConversations use strings of words which echo the thoughts of their operators, and often a string of words can have an embedded meaning; in Salt & Pepper, I emphasize the latent patterns within language by transforming repetition into revelation. To accomplish this, I used Rhodiola’s Operation, named after the main character, as a device to repeat and rearrange sequences which results in a linguistic catalyst by which the main character may initiate change.
- The Mercurial Fire of AmbitionUnbridled cleverness is the prevailing detriment of all ages. As a gnat attracted to the sweetness of honey is autogenically shackled in a hyper-gelatinous prison– so will the knowledge of humankind be autogenically shackled if left untempered by the saccharine release of wisdom.
