That thought! Being in and of itself, has always been my KNOWING for my Self. A completeness, sorely needed, imho.

'Being in and of itself', in my own case, allows me distance, so to 'hear' something other than myself [in the ego sense] presenting vital and timely information into the arena that holds me a spectator. Spectator to 'reality' as we know and experience it. My contention is that reality is but one suitable part of something more 'competent' - and by that I mean that 'more stuff' continues to enter reality even that it is less solid-like. I further believe that it is through 'intuition' that our needs are yet anticipated; and that we merely need to 'listen' more to know more. In and of itself, an image becomes the lodestone, 'compass', necessary to navigate the course, the duration of time, that is ours... To whatever might be time's purposiveness [so to speak]. Why else would I have dropped the promised treasures of cultural paradigm to follow the path of these 'objects d'art'? How else might we have met? -tdp

Terrance, it is an honour to see what seems this whole Series together, and, to attempt to read your treatise to understand better your inspiration for these. I see your point only too clearly about the Age of the Spectacle. I shall consider it more, before further comment. Congratulation on your quest, your vision, your erudition, this Series. VIVA

Thank you VIVA; simply put, it is my ever familiar beseech that people re-connect with image in its simplest and un-usurpt status - of being something in-and-of-itself; before being something that can be bent into statistical utility. Images today are less and less 'friendly'; images today are strung together to bolster a 'desired' effect. They are weaponized and even simply misappropriated, misused and misunderstood! And all the time, who is listening to the single image for what they 'feel' about their being? Well of course this is much to do about the viewer's mindset; and yet it as well asks, 'Is there something more about this reality that is attempting to be recognized in the mouth-piece of a single image? En tout cas, I need to express it in better ways because I believe it is a distinction of great reliance. TY VIVA, Terrance x
