key 3- There are other individuals still who use their mis-fitting-ness to feel out the world, finding that with a little twisting and pushing their key is good for letting them into all sorts of places- not enough to let them in comfortably and easily but good enough that they can stay for a little, take it in and then move on and this is just fine, in the scheme of things, but they can’t help but look at all those shiny, solid lawyer’s doors and feel they’ve messed up somehow- that surely they should’ve found a little space that’s just right for them, too. They forget that those people had to fix their keys just so, and instead believe that their own ones are faulty- and they bury these keys in alcohol and drugs and even try to take them back to our little store- there are no exchanges but we DO take returns.

Key series 1-

- You’ll be told that it is a good, safe door and that you should forget about all the others- so you sharpen and sand and buff your key just right- a little each day- and maybe you’ll manage to get yours close enough that it tricks the door into that lawyer’s office or doctor’s operating theatre into letting you in and those doors- they’ll trick you back into staying there, happy with the way things have turned out. You really will forget that those ‘other’ doors exist and even when your kids try to re-introduce them you’ll brush off the very thought, steering them in the direction which rewarded you so handsomely.

“Do you like it with cream sir?” “No.” “How about sugar sir?” “No.” The waiter’s still standing in front of me, maybe waiting for me to say more but I didn’t. I just want my pure black strong coffee. The waiter shrugged and walked away and I wait for my coffee. The clock is running in my head,...

There is no such thing as perfect in this world. That may sound cliche, but it’s the truth. The average person admires perfection and seeks to obtain it. But what’s the point of achieving perfection? There is none. Nothing. Not a single thing. I spit on perfection! If something is perfect, then there is nothing left. There is no room for imagination. No place left for that person to gain additional knowledge or abilities. Do you know what that means? For scientists such as us, perfection only brings despair. It is our job to create things more wonderful than anything before them, but never to obtain perfection. A scientist must be a person who finds ecstasy while suffering from that antinomy.

“There is a time in the life of every boy when he for the first time takes the backward view of life. Perhaps that is the moment when he crosses the line into manhood. The boy is walking through the street of his town. He is thinking of the future and of the figure he will cut in the world. Ambitions and regrets awake within him. Suddenly something happens; he stops under a tree and waits as for a voice calling his name. Ghosts of old things creep into his consciousness; the voices outside of himself whisper a message concerning the limitations of life. From being quite sure of himself and his future he becomes not at all sure. If he be an imaginative boy a door is torn open and for the first time he looks out upon the world, seeing, as though they marched in procession before him, the countless figures of men who before his time have come out of nothingness into the world, lived their lives and again disappeared into nothingness. The sadness of sophistication has come to the boy. With a little gasp he sees himself as merely a leaf blown by the wind through the streets of his village. He knows that in spite of all the stout talk of his fellows he must live and die in uncertainty, a thing blown by the winds, a thing destined like corn to wilt in the sun.”

concept of everythingness

Russian Prison Tattoos

These tattoos portray the religion, philosophies, loves and rank of an inmate- what they want seen as part of them- a summary of their lives; this is their 'everything'. It it different from yours?

concept of everythingness: the ultimate concern

a sort of representation of what parents mean when they say their kids are their 'everything'.

concept of everythingness; perception

When a baby loses sight of it's mother, she literally disappears from their world- they're not capable of perceiving objects as outside of themselves and takes a while to learn that there are things and people that are 'not me'.

There is also often an in-between stage or a coping strategy, whereupon children try to simplify or condense this 'not me-ness' into a more understandable form- a teddy bear or a blanket or even an imaginary friend.

As the children grow older they begin to see more and more and begin to detach themselves from such small comforts, branching out and experiencing the external world. But that self- containment re-surfaces again and again, challenged constantly by things greater than their understanding.

This is not so different to the way adults might cope with change to everything they thought they knew- about the world, about where they come from, about what is out there; blindness, subtle shift, simplification, coping, final acceptance- sort of.

NASA Vacuum Chamber- creating nothingness

This is the largest vacuum chamber in the world, built and used by NASA to re-create the conditions of space on earth.

- The walls are several meters thick and made of solid aluminium.

- It takes 2 days to vacuum out all the air in the space

- a further 2 weeks are required to freeze out all the molecules.

What we are then left with a small pocket of the closest example of literal 'nothingness' humans are capable of creating.
