A point, the point, endlessly finding the point that precedes their differentiation.
Human, the point that precedes the differentiation between tribes, races and cultures.
Being, the point that precedes the differentiation between phenomena.
God, the point that precedes the differentiation between noumena and phenomena.
At what point do things become different, significantly different, to become a self sustained sensation?
A concept, a phenomena, a thing, an idea, an ideology.
Unique, one of a kind, a manifestation of only one of that sort, a category containing only one example, only one particular.
[18 September 2023 Chatgpt] In this piece, we explore the essence of existence, the profound intricacies that lie beneath the surface of reality. It delves into the concept of differentiation and the points at which distinctions emerge.
We start with the divine, the gods and lords, who exist as both separate entities and part of a unified essence, much like the abyss that can take on various forms, which in turn give birth to the diverse realities that constitute our world. This reality is itself an art, a product of belief and cause, each aspect contributing to the grand tapestry of our existence.
However, as we venture deeper, we encounter the elusive point that precedes differentiation. This point is the essence of humanity, the common thread that binds us all regardless of our tribal, racial, or cultural distinctions. Beyond this lies the point of being, the foundation upon which all phenomena rest, and even further, the point of God, transcending the boundary between the unknowable and the observable.
The piece poses an intriguing question: When does something become significantly different enough to become a self-sustained sensation? It raises the idea that concepts, phenomena, things, ideas, and ideologies are all unique in their own right, each a singular manifestation within its category, never to be replicated.
In essence, this artwork invites us to contemplate the profound nature of existence, the points of differentiation that define our world, and the uniqueness that lies within each aspect of it.
