           The Useful Illusion

     " Indeterminacy of reference" (p31) is just the creation.

     When the inspiration you feel when you look at a flower has nothing to do with the actual physical object of the flower, how do you convey that? 

     " Natuaral beauty reminds us once again that what we aknowlege in a work of art is not all that in which the language of art speaks" (p31)

     There is a seperation between the objective world, the way we experience it and how we communicate it. Natural beauty exists, it inspires from a place of mystery. It has no definitive purpose in aesthetics, yet it inspires. Yet it brings meaning with it and we "know". Our imagination is triggered and ideas, concepts come. A practical thing. Modern art does the same thing. We just know things even though they are not definable. Even though they are born in illusion - the other inspires me into action in the moment. Modern Art Rules! The human reflection of Nature

      What we "get" from the object is not an inate property of the object. Philip Pullman's "Dust" is a good way to describe the "significance of the exemplary meaning we see before us" (p31). Why do things "fit"? How do we understand? How can we take from Something ("Natural Beauty") and gain solid insight from it? What is it - in nature - or myself - that fuels this understanding? "Getting it". Knowing what to do - How to - live. The knitting of ideas. A tool. A view point - a person formed. Going forward. How can I form an opinion - knowlege - from Modern Art? Whether that is a painting, or from "Him"? From conversation - (with no rules). And use that as a solid useful experience. Giong forward? It knits together As I. And when I share that, that beauty, instantaneously recognised as new in the moment, the past meets the present and the future is shaped. Natural Beauty feels and knows from a place of non-objective momentary recognition in Identity of the moment. A froming - completely arttificial - of myself to - be - shared. And thus perpetuating - meaning -. Adding to the illusion - the useful illusion. 

     Individual Illusion - Shared becomes a strengthening of the other. And a further - more furthering of - a bringing to light. Shaped by the thoughts and threads of the other, in their own particular ways. I give this, a part of me I shaped in the moment to you which you will mold. 

     The Illusion - unique - when it is open - forms. How do we know? What leads us to knowlege from Modern Art? The feeling - the moment of recognition? There must be two.

     Gadamer takes away from the perspective that there is no objective which in itself has meaning, stating that ( in natural beauty ) we understand from nature an illusion. What we know or learn from nature has nothing to do with any inate property of nature itself. That we create in a series of art moments, which can be shared and used - as the beautiful. And that Sharing deepens our understanding of ourselves and the world around us in a synthetic co-operation of inspiring and understanding one another

      * How do we take what is "sensed" into what is percieved?

      * Identity and Variation

          The Specific-ness experienced

     I am able to explore further aesthetically - Continuous. In relation to art. The unity I experience modulates. Exploring further though known. New ideas feel familiar. Exploring new lands feels familiar. The familiarity is Nuanced. Original and unique - adding to the whole - to be reproduced in a new moment, contributing to the New Known. 

     Added virtuosity. The Virtual and Sensed Perception of Aesthetics. The feel of the moment. Visceral. Touched by colour. Sensed by liquid. And shared by cominality. Be brave. Feel the concept. You will never strive too far. 

     Identity in variation takes wandering - as - onesself into a new concept - The Familiar - style - of things. What is this - connectivity - the different sameness of things? That i understand to be new. Momentary recognition. Art. Education. Self knowledge of the world. What is art's role in this? The Spark - Sustained.
