thoughts on philosophy and science

I have noticed, at least around here, that there is a strong tendency to regard a person's actions always in a negative light. That is to say, that in a situation where context has not been provided then second parties always conclude that the behavior must source from a desire for personal gain or ill intent.

I wrote the original architectonic to provide some organization and structure to my philosophical beliefs and the amount of concepts and material I had been imbibing at the time. A much improved and updated (but also incomplete) version exists here.

I think sometimes we get an image like this is the way it is, but choose to live life without limits.

The box set comes with a 60 page booklet containing many thoughts Eno has on music and the music he's created over the years.

His insights on music and thought and challenging the notion of what music is and is for, often with implied aspects of music not always spoken about, generated some thoughts of my own and I wanted to jot them down.

If granite can melt (it can it becomes magma) [1], then can it be cast or blown like glass?

I find the obsession over efficiency to be a bit confusing. It's an obsession at all costs. "It doesn't matter, just be more efficient."

I used to subscribe to that ideology but I finally realized that at some point as you make your thing more efficient, it just stop being enjoyable. It's in the office doing more work faster. Or organizing your morning to squeeze one more chore in, or subscribing to some ridiculous way of studying to learn a little faster.
