take an image and add some imagination
September 22nd, 2008It’s an image. It’s an animation. It’s both!!
It’s Imagimation!
The image below may appear to be a 2-dimensional drawing. Hold down your left mouse button and scroll up (or down) and use a little imagimation! Animating a 2d image using an imagined 3d perspective.
You know you’ve got an imagination, but did you know that you’ve also got an ‘imagimation?’ While most people are well-versed at imagining a static picture, far fewer of us regularly practice imagimating, animating that static image. In fact, it’s must harder to do than most people would think.
Why is it that you have to look back and forth at oncoming traffic before making a left-hand turn? Because YOU are limited in your imagimative capabilties.
Fear not though, practice imagimating and you’ll increase your capacity for such heady activity. You might even become happier and more successful! Especially if your newly developed imagimation motivates you to develop other abilities and talents.
Tell your friends and family that you’ve got imagimation and then explain it to them. Not only will you be helping them to think about things a bit differently, you’ll be having a notable achievement!
The incongruity of existence and annihilation itself serves to underlie all other paradoxes. As phenomena, the paradoxical are beyond the ken of one whose perception is defined as within or encompassed by the medium from which the paradoxical springs.
It is only upon removing one’s perceptive sense from the medium that one might differently perceive the paradoxical - not as the mutuality of the mutually exclusive, or an impossible form of figure and ground. Instead, one finds new ground from which springs the paradox and when taken in view of this newly perceived ground, the paradox melts, much like the mirage of an oasis as one draws nearer. A return of one’s perception to the original medium and the paradox returns. A few steps back and so does the mirage.
The incongruity of existence and annihilation is the source from which all paradox spring. And yet, only one’s perspective need change to manifest or eliminate the paradox.
