A remarkable meditation about the flow that forms life as it is. The drawings were the most remarkable and several remind me my own drawing. As in the case with "Roots" there is something powerful about the fractal quality of the formation of plants. Plants move, flow, after all, but do so too slowly to be observed by the human eye. And so also we become something different than what we were when we created in the process. And the same is true for observation in Heisenberg-ian sense.
Thank you. You’re touching something important with the Heisenberg connection — that observation changes what’s being observed. I think that’s true of writing like this too. Putting language around an experience reshapes the experience itself. The person writing and the person being written about are already diverging by the time the sentence ends. The drawings came from a similar place — trying to catch something in motion without stopping it.
