It's not true that i've never tried to do blendy efforts before. I did it! It's just a matter of checkin out previous levels. And to be fair, there were cases in wich i simply mirrored other articipants' good ideas! I'm a citizen too and it was my belief in the strenght of hSITOry (name i proppose for the whole onirical tale constructed along every level of Gridscom) that made me act as i did! To believe that some of my aparently disconected interventions would "subvert the equilibrium" of Gridscom is as naive as believing that John Cage's "4'33''" would destroy the history of music or that Duchamp's readymades would destroy the history of art! What you considered "sustained trolling" was acctually nothing but provocative micro-pauses: fast episodes of apnea on a living- breathing strong system! You should be proud of your creation! Without pauses, thinking becomes mad uncontrolable flow (psicorreia). We need pauses to work better, regain breath, produce meaningful ideas and concepts! We need chapter divisions!lol I believe that constructionism (or constructivism) needs deconstructionism (or deconstructivism) and vice-versa! Exactly as in the Matrix trilogy! NEO is a planned imbalance on the matrix, in order to make it work better: Architect and Oracle (Causality and Chance) making disputes over human lives, just as God and the Devil disputing over Job's body! Anyway, nice talking to you: you are a good Architect! And if you allow me the opportunity, i would like to make a few sugestions, alright? One question i'll put right now, based in Zeno's paradox of the glass half empty/half full: are we the hoggy ones or is the Grid that is GREEdy? Why should we asceticaly restrain ourselves, our artistic endeavours, into a tiny square? A more artistic system should offer a broader conceptual space for aesthetic exploration! Because art can't be reduced to "strategic damage-control reservations". Art pretty much follows the concept of Louise Bourgeois' triptich:" I DO - I UNDO - I REDO". If the grid could grow, we would be able of merging separate territories (the gridpoem and the gridscom) and creating more challenging tableaux, combining blendy procedures with discontinuous ones. If we could use the png format it would be a nice improvement also! Well, that's it for now! And once again, sorry for my "lack of tact"!lol | ||
