mark is testing my patience here

Maze-treaders, whose vision ahead and behind is severely constricted and fragmented, suffer confusion, whereas maze-viewers who see the pattern whole, from above or in a diagram, are dazzled by its complex artistry. What you see depends on where you stand, and thus, at one and the same time, labyrinths are single (there is one physical structure) and double: they simultaneously incorporate order and disorder, clarity and confusion, unity and multiplicity, artistry and chaos. They may be perceived as a path (a linear but circuitous passage to a goal) or as a pattern (a complete symmetrical design) … Our perception of labyrinths is thus intrinsically unstable: change your perspective and the labyrinth seems to change.

You know I love how in House of Leaves the Navidsons are quintessential yt people.

Like when your house starts growing from inside and have random vantablack hallways appear randomly, you don’t document it. You fucking move the fuck out.

“... and I want something else. I’m not even sure what to call it anymore except I know it feels roomy and it’s drenched in sunlight and it’s weightless and I know it’s not cheap.

Probably not even real.”

Rereading House of Leaves is such a trip because part of me cannot stop seeing Ezekiel Jones poring over this book aggressively self connecting with these characters and words.
