There’s a phrase I’ve been repeating to myself
“non-temporal things, temporally”
i want to trademark that.
which I think is a good description of my world: stepping out of time a minute, but still maintaining awareness of the fact that it was/always is passing.
the fleeting moment is the amount of time it takes to turn the page.
that one too
and I spend significantly less time per page I think than most of my peers do, in some cases and sometimes when I’m walking through a museum or a gallery I intentionally linger or am more conscious of the amount of time I’m taking to examine
“now look at this detail and that one and, oh, this area here.” i’m on to the next room already and, look, they’ve hardly even made it past that wall
In certain settings the act of looking feels a little more contrived,
———- and if left to my own devices, I would remain in a “”static state of drifting” through these spaces,” and from one image to the next, and going back. I don’t always know what I’m looking at until I see it in the context of the rest of things I’ve seen.
