We gather around the start of a causeway down to the Thames. It's a pretty cold night and there's a breeze coming off the river.

thank you

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

its performative

not their contents

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

as in

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

we can only engage in such a way

like people can read 100 books and still not have the fire within them

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

so the method has to be autonomous

magnetisation/form

okay im going very rogue and very inarticulate

all that is to say

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.

i was tempted to lie about my name

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

to work in time to get to the timeless, perfection thru chaos

and the fake qualifier

i really havent

we need to be deconstructing our identities

you cannot feed someone truth

bro i read nothing in my life

i want to do that too

division of reality is straying away from it

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

yeah

abrar?

what do you think my name is

...

plato

and the fake qualifier

yeah people dont get it they assume its ahnaf

ahnaf abrar
