What does it mean to be "against" but still? The return to embodiment (sightsensing?)<br /><br />To continue using Wake logic: <br /><br />Against "but still" a "still life" -- meaning still, there is life (entelechy, conatus)? We are creating "still life" but "still" also in the sense of "to calm," to appease (the gods, Nemesis) -- to "still time" (still, there is time -- there will be time, as Eliot says). Given time, there is still life. <br /><br />Finally, I note that the word "still" resonates with last semester's use of "di-still" -- to extract through concentration . Once again, a compression, not a synchronic Now, but a distillation into Moment -- a Moment which gives time, still. <br /><br />These are the senses of "still" we must recuperate as the Emergency, rather than the "but still" which functions as a denial of something we know very well and choose to ignore.Jtrileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05982512687346949724noreply@blogger.com
