notations / second lecture / April 16th / 2018

 

I have to concentrate more on the notations,
not only thinking and talking about it (in my lectures, the lessons, with anyone)
but doing it in a concrete way!

What is a notation?
Setting a notation means to manifest the constellation of impulses
of my perceptions / experiences
by drawing lines from one point to another.

From these topologies, the world emerges.
We use them to create all elements of our material and intellectual world.
Everything that can be read, arises from the text of our being.
Because of this, I think it is appropriate to name these topologies
Existential Notations.

rising or breakdown
rising or breakdown

But why Orion rushes to withdraw
from the sky?
And why does the night
shorten its course?
Why the dawning day
(proclaimed by the morning star)
has increased his
radiant light faster than usual
from the lightened
sparkling water?
Is it the rising or the breakdown
of Orion?

pathways of physical presence
pathways of physical presence

because of
our being broken up
from the night (the finished)
+ the day (just as lost)
from one point to another
(its reversal / pausing /):
for only the selection
of those who shine brighter
are closer to us /
touching each other,
flowing towards each other,
deeper in the pathways
of our physical presence

translation of punctuate
translation of punctuate

every truth is a point
of perforation / punctuation

punctuate
/ unterstreichen
/ interpunktieren
/ (mit Satzzeichen versehen)

those who will
those who will

like love
the archers / are blind
the archers / are those
who will /
perforates / set points / show truth
punctuate

who moves
who moves

how to draw a line
from one point
to another point?

the lover
is the one / the singularity
/ who moves by himself

on heaven’s surface
on heaven’s surface

just one
always the same point
/ puncture
but shifted in time
by this
space emerges
/ the grammatical structure arises:

recognizable as Orion;
a lifeless person on heaven’s surface
(that's me!)
punched in the pre-given truth of the divine space

 

truth of the Gods
truth of the Gods

we assume
this is the given reality
/ in time and space

no chance to escape
but forced to fulfill in order to stay
as long as possible
/ within the truth of the Gods
/ within the favour of the Gods

 

verbes / substantives / adjectives
verbes / substantives / adjectives

to do so / to stay in
truth and favour
we have to stay in the movement
which are conscripted by the names
/ verbes
/ substantives
/ adjectives
given by the highest power

but about the / truth
/ favour
/ names

the names
the names

like love
the archers are
/ blind
instead of thinking about
/ the truth
/ the favour
/ the names

 

the infinite inversion
the infinite inversion

they are throwing their arrowheads towards the heaven
in order to learn
that heavens surface is filled
with an endless number of points
(we only can recognize an endless number
of the infinite  inversion
from black to white / white to black;
this is what the perforation
sequentially shows)
that every point of perforation
is filled
by the same truth
we have to name anew again and again

 

our movements of love
our movements of love

the event
of giving every truth
anew its name
is what we call sense
so
we have to draw a line
from point to point
in order
to define what can be named
by our movements
of love

maybe
maybe

the archers are   
/ the lovers
/ the poets            
/ the artists
(otherwise they are something else…)
maybe
/ the designers
/ the craftsmen

anyhow all those / who are willing and able
to move  / following the impulses of being moved

by the unnamed truth
towards a nameable sense
