mindful motion...
.
.

.
.

...:::...i've been wrapping my head around modern / post-modern thinking and sound...around universals and specifics...around how feeling is made (or maybe rather, where it comes from)...and find myself hopelessly tangled in a web of (dis)belief...

the more still i sit, the more i realize my mind is in a steady motion. that there is a distance to be traveled between my head and heart that is measured more than nominally. sound often is an easy conductor between the here and there (between a calm melancholy and an energetic bliss). a copper wire....

music can be a way to move feeling. to lengthen and elongate. to become more flexible. listening doesn't require experience, although practice only unfolds so many more possibilities of perception.

in a recent essay by mark greif titled "the meaning of life II: anaesthetic ideology", he talks about anti-experience...about not wanting to feel anymore as a result of an aesthetic environment that can be overwhelming...about reactions to the intrusions of the modern world:

a year ago, i wrote an essay about a modern crisis in experience. i defined experience as the habit of creating isolated moments within raw occurrence in order to save and recount them...since then, i've felt i paid too little attention to a phenomena which is the opposite: the desparate wish for anti-experience. the connection between the quest for experience and the wish for anti-experience isn't chronological. you don't wake up the morning after some final orgy of experience and discover that you can't stand any more. it seems to be, instead, arbitrary and eruptive. you reach points in life at which you can no longer live like other people, though you don't want to die. experience becomes piercing, grating, intrusive. it is no longer out of reach, an occasional throb in the dark. it is no longer a prize, though it is the goal everyone else seeks. it is a scourge. all you wish for is some means to reduce feeling.

for me, this only builds a stronger reason to tap the emotional tree (haul buckets of sap water back to the sugar house. simmer and reduce to a sweet, sticky syrup...) instead of personally withdrawing from an apparent dark universal condition...better to contribute back into the collective good. music moves. mindful motion...:::...

experience and antiexperience. nice thought process there. ever considered that experiencing is just one part of a whole arrays of interactions with our place, our time, our space, our emotions, etc. experiencing sounds essentially passive, receiving an external impression and learning or responding to it. but we are also active participants in their world scene. we can be an experience for others. we can act. the antiexperience is an action undertaken with full thoughtfulness and in full response to all the dimensions of our experience. it is time for us to wake up and dance! and the dance will shape and pattern the rest of our experiences. most definitely.

It's good that you are watching Mindful Motion Movies to release y. Nowadays I listen to Mindfulness Meditation Music for Release Master Thesis Writers to Mind. I'm worried about my career, but I thought why not search for Mindful Motion over on the Internet.
