After thinking and forgetting and thinking and forgetting

isaac

i did until you asked which kind of gave it away

like magnets

i understand

like first name

we need to be deconstructing our identities

i love it here

what do you think my name is

plato

its good

yeah people dont get it they assume its ahnaf

no like which do people call me

my watchlater reached its limit years ago and now i have to create a playlist for each new topic im interested in but it is incredibly hard to create the taxonomy of knowledge because everything seems to be everything else because at the end it is what you get from it that matters not what is given

nope. i only remember the leaves bristling behind the window during chemistry class

propensity within someone

all that is to say

the only things i have read are just excerpts and 1 dialogue by plato fully and mcluhan's medium is the massage but it cannot be considered a book

god "possessing" artists "possessing" people

i don't really want to be associated with that one for some reason

you cannot feed someone language, they have to speak

mazelike/rhizomatic/immanent/emergent are not antithetical to a transcendent real but its very manifestation

okay this is interesting because pedagogies we have rn are not proper models

in a way what we are really interested in with pedagogy is the magnetisation

sorry i am texting like a slav

i struggle with building a personal technical architecture for storing media, both curation and creation. instead i bookmark everything

there is a distinction between western-modern pedagogical systems that's like text-based as in a legal method but there is an idea of "pathshala" or "guru shissho"/ "porompora" i mean how masters relayed knowledge to the student by (oral) transmission often by memorising books. so what was taught was always interactive. knowledge was interactive, you spoke with people rather than read texts.

feel you

bro i read nothing in my life

ahnaf is it worth reading all those books

and so on. not wanting the rhyming / clanging

you cannot feed someone truth

"I'm only attracted to you", he replies. "Like, you only."
