lanier beyond words law: this possibility of a kind of communication that would involve directly creating what people sense in common instead of relying as much on symbols such as words – jaron lanier
_____
perhaps no words because we allow all the words and every other means.. ie: the limit of idiosyncratic jargon ness… realizing.. communication never finished ness
mech/tech as it could be
often words are no words. meaning: they don’t mean what the heart means. trying so hard.. to listen to/for that..
quiet enough ness
what is legible ness.. who decides
not yet scrambled.. and Giulia‘s gut/sensory ness..

A hauntingly powerful piece by @DingleTeach
Mangy ‘gifts of knowing’ and wanting to be known.“I need to bond with fellow educators to do this work. But I am not known by many. But it is what I need most.”

______
4/ a worthwhile thought experiment is to spend time imagining how phenomenologically different our (social) experience would be in the absence of language
language overlays a new dimension of perception and connection atop everything, making the highly improbable, commonplace

michael pollan (via maria):
It embarrasses me to write these words; they sound so thin, so banal. This is a failure of my language, no doubt, but perhaps it is not only that. Psychedelic experiences are notoriously hard to render in words; to try is necessarily to do violence to what has been seen and felt, which is in some fundamental way pre- or post-linguistic or, as students of mysticism say, ineffable. Emotions arrive in all their newborn nakedness, unprotected from the harsh light of scrutiny and, especially, the pitiless glare of irony. Platitudes that wouldn’t seem out of place on a Hallmark card glow with the force of revealed truth.
Love is everything.
beyond words ness.. (esp thinking of ab convo day before..dead concert et al)

Possibilities of communication are limited by context. Communication therefore is not what is or is not said. Rather, it is what is possible to say. The vitriol that has become normal is a violence to the context of public communication. Speak to mutual learning & dignity. #meta

Painters have a knowledge which goes beyond words. They are where musicians are. When someone blows the saxophone the sky is made of copper.

From pure sensation to the intuition of beauty, from pleasure and pain to love and the mystical ecstasy and death — all the things that are fundamental, all the things that, to the human spirit, are most profoundly significant, can only be experienced, not expressed. The rest is always and everywhere silence.
After silence that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.
