Flow

Fountain = an artificial celebration of flow; decorative if expressive; bound and gagged (by the culture of symbols you refer to) if free. Good film though.

Time indeed is paramount in our understanding as is at present. Infinite can be found in the moment, as hinted by by Wittgenstein and many of the Eastern minds and bodies of thought. When a wee little nipper time was the only big mystery left. The atheist's comforting neck pillow of deep slumbering unconsciousness, both pre- and post-existence never lulled me into anything, just fucked a deep fear into every cell of my small brain and body when the fast and free mind of a child was meditating on the big black darkness of timelessness. If one can state/experience timelessness then there (surely)has to be an observer to notify that 'this is the state of nothingness, forever', well at least that was what I used to think and fear. Nothing, nothing, nothing. Think and fear. Well that is the endless echo of a machine, the phantom legacy of our post-mechanic tendency to treat ourselves like machines, but worse.

Time separates us from what it actually is just as the whole symbolic realm. Like you say, bound by the image. No wonder Islam has banned the image and no wonder we are fucked by the glossy magazine, as much as we are done in by the big book(s) and the tale spinners. Good or evil, hmmm. Everyone is so keen to state one or the other. +ve or -ve. Oscillating between polarities. Whatever happened to a spiral, or what ever happened to 'it' whatever 'it' might be, not a model of anything, but the thing itself, which is always like a surface of a pond. You can float, stare into it or whatever, put you sure cannot grasp it.

When was the last time you peed in your pants?

Must dash.
