The platform’s a hive. Some silos are hives on hyper drive. Like schools flocks swarms, hive thoughts group mind intersects. He detects he’s not detecting.
Finite hive breaks carve insight.
“Say absolutely nothing. Say nothing. If you have to, write it on a little card ‘Silent Trek,’ as you’re walking by people, just show it to ’em, they’ll respect you and keep right on going. Go somewhere say nothing. Watch how much comes to you. I think it’ll blow your mind…The other place where I get a lot of work done is in my car. — Don Reed
He starts: paper interrupt, “x posted y.” Warning — pen-finger muscles atrophy fast. Rebuilding takes repeating. (Ascend half-step; notate to a text file. Erect openweb blog! He hears Blogger runs.)
Fingers atrophied, and: when he agrees. Or doesn’t.
Swapping thoughts RAM cranial hard drive. Audio news and cloud storage and single-sense eyes-no-touch print push capacity. Outsource offload where. Swap out overwrites yesterday.
Individuation chips the chord.
It’s brain annexing. Quantity quality tomato. Skill blocks chord regrowth. Practice does.
Finite hive breaks carve insight.
“Don’t do anything. Um…don’t do anything. Go home, sit on the couch and stare at the wall. For a long time. Don’t put on music and don’t talk to anybody and don’t look at your phone…Don’t fall asleep! Don’t meditate…just sit there.”
Input + vacuum = insight.
“Focus is all about blocking stuff out. But once the brain is sufficiently focused, the cortex needs to relax in order to seek out the more remote association in the right hemisphere.”
Fin.
