k.'s experience reading h*xley after nye with charley and big dave, trying to integrate her first clear look at the knot. the first prick of realizing her irrationality is not something to be ashamed of, or feared, or medicated/therapied away
big swelling-chest feelings of holding human history in her head, the idea of language as something that emerged
a stalled, innovation-less art world, connections to the nyt essay from oct 23. the idea of being in the grip of an archetype resonates because she has seen the Story told over and over again. she knows she is but one voice telling it but she might be one of the few who recognize that she is not offering anything new.
"a voice told me" "a vision came to me" -> she's thinking of the knot, the forbidden taboo feeling already morphing, softening, and then is hit with labyrinth imagery. bring in the minotaur.
"we are going to have to force the issue" brings in a grounded urgency. in that moment, the whole group leans forward.
the term "program," remember how the ex-wife used it in the *** documentary. what exactly did it mean to him? the metaphor of an imminent birth chills as it rings true. "it's the poets who have failed us" hits in a certain way. "because they have not provided a song we could all move in concert to" is a pathway toward the blonde troll if I choose to take it. k.'s first moment of focused curiosity about ***.
the shy, giggly moment of everyone looking around at one another. if lm explains meme in this way in 2004, it won't hold the same eeriness as tm spinning this in 1990 but even so, it would be ahead of the curve.
inspiring, uplifting -- more swelling-chest feelings. k clearly confidently associating the knot with the other he refers to.
the first time gnosticism resonates with her, despite coming of age knowing her father's research, papers, courses.
beside her, v. sucks in an audible breath. p*le fire should be quoted here, the bit about being art*stically caged.
again, big chest swelling feelings. should be the same structure, a talk and then q&a, and both end on moments of inspiration and gravity. the situation is serious. it is up to us to do something about it.
