ahnaf is it worth reading all those books

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

propensity within someone

you cannot feed someone language, they have to speak

not their contents

you cannot feed someone truth

plato

we want to live the knowledge too live the content

what do you think my name is

what do you mean


abrar?

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

send link

have you read

ahnaf is it worth reading all those books

wait what is that

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

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.

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

all that is to say

i know a little bit of lacan which probably influences me in a way i cant articulate

its good short few pages

we need to be deconstructing our identities

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

the site i am dreaming

i was tempted to lie about my name

yeah people dont get it they assume its ahnaf

It Will Get Lighter

The slug lives in my bathroom. I only see it in the early hours of the morning, when I'm not quite right.

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

no like which do people call me
