Night.

( Reality and Social )

Night, So radically different to the day.
For most people, “life” is what happens during the day, at work, at school etc, meeting people, talking, feeling the world around you… So what does that make night?
I personally seem to spend a large chunk of my time “living” at night, I love the quiet, the relative solitude, [...]

Creation.

( Education and Reality and Science )

I think it is easy to forget what memories, reality, science and “fact” really are.

Reason, Reality and Rationale.

My number one (maybe) Philosophy:
Note: This isn’t a “command”, it is merely my own philosophy.
Know why you do things, everything you do, you should know why. If you are not able to present a reason, that you personally see as valid, for why you do something, why do you do it?
So many people do things [...]

What Are Simulacra?

A Simulacra, in it’s most pure form is a “copy of a copy”. However, it is slightly more than that, often a simulacrum would be a copy that has changed so much from it’s original that it can no longer be said to be a copy. Or, a copy of something that no longer exists, [...]
