Philosophical aphorisms & critical reflections by creator of mittnetworkmusic
An idea doesn’t exist in the physical world; it is a mental construct developed in response to an encounter with reality.
For example, the concept of numbers, one of the most profound and far reading ideas, was created as an abstraction by the mind to interpret complexity. One of the most fundamental techniques of the mind is to subdivide reflections into smaller parts for examination.
The intersection of the mind’s internal model with the external reality is where ideas are conceived.
To quiet the mind, make a clear distinction between yourself and its inner motor. Stop yourself at first, but you can’t control the entire movement of the mind—so just allow the motor to spin down the rest on its own.
Inspiration is more about the energetic state of mind rather than the ideational, the semantic.
When ideas have properly signed the mind, like matching keys, but mainly when the mind itself has reached a top state, especially in a general, physical sense, then there will be wonderful results brought about by inspiration.
The idea of what you truly like is one of the first impulses boosting energy in forming inspiration. However, the overall underlying context here is usually broader and lies somewhat deeper as it is partly hidden in the subconscious streams.
True inspiration is a cutting-edge blend of glowing will to the world, that is, a power.
It’s good to always remember: everything is temporary; the essence of the world is to constantly evolve.
Void… see the emptiness inside and through yourself, in fact it is there: the empty space in the stomach, between and inside the parts of the body, inside atoms, the emptiness between thoughts…
This emptiness
You are kind of permeable
Don’t rush time; later, you’ll realize how irreversible it was. Get the most of each moment; our life is so short.
I call it an information revolution rather than a tech revolution because the fundamental changes are driven by information.
In fact, information touches everything and is a deeper phenomenon than technology or machines, that’s why are experiencing more changes than ever before.
The ongoing infromation revolution is a catalyst, driving massive global change. In such a dynamic environment, avoid relying on stability. Be prepared to let go of anything, stay adaptable and ready for both challenges and opportunities.
The effort towards a perfect ideal is absurd; fluctuations and disparities are embedded in the very nature of the Universe.
Instead of hard perfectionism, a bit of nonchalance can lead to a more harmonious results.
Interest… how does it manifest itself, and how is it formed in our minds?
Interest is the will that guides a situation based on the values our minds have adapted to.
Who are we without our interests? Beyond any particular interests, we are shaped by the values we have been able to comprehend.
In human interactions, direct confrontation is utterly useless. It’s always a delicate game of interpreting meanings.
Focus on easy way, as if playing, only then will you succeed in any endeavor.
Don’t strain yourself much; “forcing will” strategy can only last for a short time.
If you really need to master a certain topic, you’re to trick yourself into getting interested and make yourself love it
Why did USA fall so low?
Where does it come from is the corrosion of capitalism, swayed by the technological revolution of humanity in general. America is concentrated capitalism.
In the fierce constant struggle for luck and money, a huge number of people get tired and weaken their minds.
Too much money, too much fat.
America needed a strong Europe to maintain balance and tone of movement, competition.
This is a problem of growth and scale. Not only that you can’t eat without measure – you’ll be fat, you can’t pump muscles without measure either – you’ll be overstrained and sick. It’s about America.
The largest American monopoly corporations have been doing nothing good or new for a long time as well. Apple is lucky to have mass popular Android and Windows, only that’s why they manage to preserve at least minimum quality and innovation – but in fact degradation wave comes for them as well – size and scale will play their role; Microsoft and Google have both been getting worse and destroying everything around for a long time – because they are overgrown monopolists; fat and stupid.
In this world, you don’t just grow – then you swell and sour. You must move, find and fight, compete…
America on the yeasts of the information revolution swelled – and deteriorated.
Socialism should balance capitalism, unrestrained growth will lead to a tumor.
Be more careful now with everything American hosted, especially the data stored there – it’s time to carefully think about backups and alternatives.
The sky is blue… but only we see it like this; actually, it’s contains more details. And not only the sky.
Many abstractions like countries or feelings also have an even more subjective connotation.
The whole world we perceive is extremely subjective.
The one who can and has enough honesty and strength to see the truth and perspective of distance is really to be alive, not illusions and phantoms; it’s all short-term… By the way, learn to recognize pain as well; life is a complex tapestry of all possible experiences.
In the long run, you can’t ignore reality as it is. The path to true success (not luck or fortune based) lies in merging with reality and accepting it. The reality beyond our consciousness is very real, and we certainly don’t see it to the end.
Human being… not only builds, but also destroys as much.
Sometimes some people, under certain circumstances, just have fun destroying everything in a brazen way.
Don’t try to search for universal justice, this world is created to boil and rebuild again and again… whatever the struggle – the worst will lose sooner or later.
I like to turn off everything and just contemplate.
I like keeping it minimal, without internet, news, consumerism, and no worries: take the maximum of your time and the minimum of what could grab it, fully aware and complete in this time, we’ve got so little of it actually; why ever hurry, anyway you are going to die and will never predict it all.
That acceptance of “nothing” gives you space of thought, gives you time to understand.
No, it’s not like Buddhist meditation. You don’t hide yourself behind breathing exercises. You face this reality directly as it is, head-on.
I am not anticipating new music. I mean, exceptionally new music, like modern electronics compared to the 19th century.
Do you expect electricity to be discovered again? Well, new music is electricity. Such significant discoveries happen rarely…
There’s no point in rushing here, and what was relevant in the 90s, when electricity delved into digital, can still be relevant today. Who said 30 years is a far past? That stage is still here, and it might last for two hundred years, who knows.
Neural networks can bring new sounds, but more likely – quantum computers.
Today’s question is: do we all truly need new things so much? Perhaps today’s rush is just a blur.
Are you waiting for the new forms? What they could be like?
