Re: why
My uncle is writing a book(s) about the number 1. The circle or zero is One or ALL numbers and all numbers are a part or fraction of that One or something along those lines. Haven't read the book yet...but apparently we've been lied to about numbers for the last few 1000 years or so
Conceptually I get some of what hes tried explaining to me but it gets too mathematical for my abstract mosaic thinking brain...its more of a Gear section thing

We invented the internet
We invented links
We invented software
But we also invented all the things before this. Cassettes, pianos, writing, electricity.
And we will invent everything that follows. Fusion powered hover masturbation boards, parsnip flavoured chewing gum, soundgasms, etc....
It's not being edgy, its wanting to make use of all the things.

Re: why
Why wipe your arse when you could use a bidet?why learn to mix records if a computer can do it
Why write a letter when you can e-mail?why send out mail art when there is the internet
Why have sex when you can look at porn?why dub cassettes when you can share links
Why chop garlic when you can buy a jar of chopped garlic?why buy analog gear why DIY at all etc.
The reasons are myriad and dependent on the individual. Their reasons will make no sense to you, and any effort to expound said reasons would be a waste of energy for both parties.why? are you living in a different era, trying to be edgy, or just enjoying the physicality of things??
Instead? Do you.

I'm going to guess that he's had some sort of 'spiritual revelation', and I would even go so far as to suggest he's been reading about kabbalistic models prior to it happening.RUBBISH wrote: ↑Sat Aug 15, 2020 10:35 amMy uncle is writing a book(s) about the number 1.
