What came first...

It looks as if the hunch was ok.

Do you put Spinoza closer to panentheism? The vocab you’re using is a bit abstract (for me) without examples to prime/trigger the meaning … only takes me a few to get my bearings. You are putting the cookies where people (lol just me) need wings to reach ‘em (right now) lol.

Paying attention but on break and not merely fast.

Yes and the same could be asked of retucense, or forbearance, for temporarily mixed signals as far as what came before or after, the purported ‘fast’

Just avoiding embarrassment over thin-skinned emotions, mostly on my part i presume, however any possible damage control is necessary in light of the preceding. ( that one may nit necessarily follow the other, at least schematically if not temporarily.

The reason fir my extended break in my fast tendency to react in the case of the pantheistic debate over .spin oh za, accented by information gathered by hunches, ( where me no can gain credence by allusion to his a-priori method )- and that by now should be accepted as true.

thnks

Confession: I may have read Spinoza so long ago I barely remember what I read, or if I was too wet-behind-the-ears to correctly interpret. Hence my questions

It’s possible with God.

This semester doesn’t stop, man.

What came first?

memes communicated between brains
or the genes encoding our capacity for them

and what’s the difference

Scrolling back up to 7/2/22… Meno_, I recently had a dream about a house of mirrors that was just whiteness instead of mirrors. It works… to bring stuff into focus. Nothing can hide, even if it thinks it found privacy. You assume boundaries where there are none.

What came first?

eternity was always what it is

and will be

So nothing came first and everything will last.

is last

we glearn from nature:

the beaver dams

the fire clears the forest

the flood causes growth where there was nothing

the chameleon hides

the Venus fly traps

the tree rings remember the seasons

the symbiotic cooperate with other species for each other’s survival

Emperor Penguins mate for life, and their males are single fathers for the first two months after hatchings

purposiveness without a purpose just means unwilled will - automaticity

it doesn’t mean NO ONE intended it

it just means WE are special - we can choose or reject our purpose

(self=other)^2

So to eschew the formidable formal, Kierkegaard broadly, very, reconsidered, as with my prof. Comment ions ago that “a little bit of Platois like a little bit of poison”, I could reply if there finally came to a travel through time( it’s self), -and that day is almost imminent for every or anybody, that-

He may have not said that- my earliest prof., because on principles sandwiching simulation, could have modified a gene to meme injection of venom, to provide immunity against such feared epidemic cross infections.

The singularity just has to keep on filling the ever expansive return to avoid the mistake of correlating an absolute identification with an infinh itely serious (series) suggesting the copy.

Even if….that is becoming inconceable, and in-sensible.

In reference to the German idealists, Heidegger, Nietzche, Hesse, et al. their Kirkegaardian despair was born of genetic simplex, where that extended to memetic singularity.

The memetic parallel, evolved intrinsically similarly, unnoticibly, but allowed for a linearly ascribed continuum, for a suppressive cyclic rapid oscillation, in case the cycle uncovered some suggestive anti-authoritarian strategically managed exxegarated marginally concentrated overlap, to affect the sensible reason for excluding , reviewing and revising in accordance with a programmed methodological accountability.

Nietzhe’s genetic singularity Cut off the post developing duplicity necessary to bar the utilization of the doubly bladed challenge, so their restraint led to internalized reaction masking a politically dangerous outcome.

In fact the turn of fateful events of Heidegger’s brilliance came through in tha motif established by the tonal functionality of Wagner’ brilliant leibnitzian
‘Insight’ through a general apathetic connection thereof, all the way to a Beethoven deafness to return to a a basic romantic idiom in the 9 th symphony.

Wagner on Beethoven

“Brought about by listening to Wagner’s piano transcript of Beethoven’s 9th (below should you have access to Spotify). I think it is sometimes easy to forget the, admitted, influence Beethoven and especially the 9th had on Wagner. All of the following is taken from Wagner’s Biography “My Life” which, despite its occasional unreliability, remains some of Wagner’s clearest prose work and can be read or downloaded in full and for free by clicking this link

“Another work also exercised a great fascination over me, namely, the overture to Fidelio in E major, the introduction to which affected me deeply. I asked my sisters about Beethoven, and learned that the news of his death had just arrived. Obsessed as I still was by the terrible grief caused by Weber’s death, this fresh loss, due to the decease of this great master of melody, who had only just entered my life, filled me with strange anguish, a feeling nearly akin to my childish dread of the ghostly fifths on the violin. It was now Beethoven’s music that I longed to know more thoroughly; I came to Leipzig, and found his music to Egmont on the piano at my sister Louisa’s. After that I tried to get hold of his sonatas. At last, at a concert at the Gewandthaus, I heard one of the master’s symphonies for the first time; it was the Symphony in A major. The effect on me was indescribable. To this must be added the impression produced on me by Beethoven’s features, which I saw in the lithographs that were circulated everywhere at that time, and by the fact that he was deaf, and lived a quiet secluded life. I soon conceived an image of him in my mind as a sublime and unique supernatural being, with whom none could compare. This image was associated in my brain with that of Shakespeare; in ecstatic dreams I met both of them, saw and spoke to them, and on awakening found myself bathed in tears.”

“I now wanted to set Leubald und Adelaide (sic) to music, similar to that which Beethoven wrote to Goethe’s Egmont; the various ghosts from the spirit world, who were each to display different characteristics, were to borrow their own distinctive colouring from appropriate musical accompaniment”

“On the other hand, this visit brought me a great treasure, which was responsible for leading me in a very different direction from that advised by Kuhnlein. This was the score of Beethoven’s great Quartette in E flat major, which had only been fairly recently published, and of which my brother-in-law had a copy made for me. Richer in experience, and in the possession of this treasure, I returned to Leipzig to the nursery of my queer musical studies”

“As my musical instruction also did me no good, I continued in my wilful process of self-education by copying out the scores of my beloved masters, and in so doing acquired a neat handwriting, which in later years has often been admired. I believe my copies of the C minor Symphony and the Ninth Symphony by Beethoven are still preserved as souvenirs.”

“Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony became the mystical goal of all my strange thoughts and desires about music. I was first attracted to it by the opinion prevalent among musicians, not only in Leipzig but elsewhere, that this work had been written by Beethoven when he was already half mad. It was considered the ‘non plus ultra’ of all that was fantastic and incomprehensible, and this was quite enough to rouse in me a passionate desire to study this mysterious work. At the very first glance at the score, of which I obtained possession with such difficulty, I felt irresistibly attracted by the long-sustained pure fifths with which the first phrase opens: these chords, which, as I related above, had played such a supernatural part in my childish impressions of music, seemed in this case to form the spiritual keynote of my own life. This, I thought, must surely contain the secret of all secrets, and accordingly the first thing to be done was to make the score my own by a process of laborious copying. I well remember that on one occasion the sudden appearance of the dawn made such an uncanny impression on my excited nerves that I jumped into bed with a scream as though I had seen a ghost. The symphony at that time had not yet been arranged for the piano; it had found so little favour that the publisher did not feel inclined to run the risk of producing it. I set to work at it, and actually composed a complete piano solo, which I tried to play to myself. I sent my work to Schott, the publisher of the score, at Mainz. I received in reply a letter saying ‘that the publishers had not yet decided to issue the Ninth Symphony for the piano, but that they would gladly keep my laborious work,’ and offered me remuneration in the shape of the score of the great Missa Solemnis in D, which I accepted with great pleasure.”

"But another work of this period, an Overture in B flat major, left an indelible impression on my mind on account of an incident connected with it. This composition, in fact, was the outcome of my study of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony in about the same degree as Leubald und Adelaide (sic) was the result of my study of Shakespeare. I had made a special point of bringing out the mystic meaning in the orchestra, which I divided into three distinctly different and opposite elements. I wanted to make the characteristic nature of these elements clear to the score reader the moment he looked at it by a striking display of colour, and only the fact that I could not get any green ink made this picturesque idea impossible. I employed black ink for the brass instruments alone, the strings were to have red and the wind green ink. This extraordinary score I gave for perusal to Heinrich Dorn, who was at that time musical director of the Leipzig theatre. He was very young, and impressed me as being a very clever musician and a witty man of the world, whom the Leipzig public made much of.

“At this time I also wrote (as my third opus) an overture to Raupach’s drama, Konig Enzio, in which again Beethoven’s influence made itself even more strongly felt.”

“As regards style and design, this work was suggested by Beethoven’s Seventh and Eighth Symphonies, and, so far as I can remember, I should have had no need to be ashamed of it, had I been able to complete it, or keep the part I had actually finished. But I had already begun at this time to form the opinion that, to produce anything fresh and truly noteworthy in the realm of symphony, and according to Beethoven’s methods, was an impossibility. Whereas opera, to which I felt inwardly drawn, though I had no real example I wished to copy, presented itself to my mind in varied and alluring shapes as a most fascinating form of art. Thus, amid manifold and passionate agitations, and in the few leisure hours which were left to me, I completed the greater part of my operatic poem, taking infinitely more pains, both as regards words and versification, than with the text of my earlier Feen. Moreover, I found myself possessed of incomparably greater assurance in the arrangement and partial invention of situations than when writing that earlier work.”
