The play's script is written in starlight.. ⭐

Which as we've already elucidated, is an uncontrivable falsehood outside the egocentric identity. It is a well known attribute of the ego to try and validate itself, that it is something, that it knows something, or that it has something.

"All the world's a stage, and the people merely players."

What I'm saying is that it's paradoxical that to truly know something, is to never let ourselves think or believe that we know anything.

It keeps us in a state of humility and open mindedness to further our knowledge and understanding.

The ego loves feeling & believing that it's 'right'.

When we're not the source of all the impulses that become our thoughts, feelings, and will. Then we can truly never know anything. By abstraction, 1 could say that were not meant to know.

That's not to say we shouldn't increase our knowledge.

Am I 100% right? Of course not. There's always a greater context to view & interpret the world. What is right to us today will change over time w/ greater understanding.

Our world has an uncomfortable amount of paradoxes. The only thing that is always right, is that we are always wrong.

So when you look up at the night sky and see Moon, stars, and planets. What you're really looking at, is yourself!

2 eyes in the water, 2 eyes on land, 2 eyes in the skies. Eyes all over the place. It is our nature to see ourselves in everything!

Our bodies are made of smaller parts that make the whole. By the same qualification, the Earth is also a whole body and we are it's parts. The solar system and all of it's parts, and so on.

So you can see why it's easy for the hand to delude itself this way, just like human beings, bc it also doesn't have the proper kind of eyes to see it's attached to an arm and a greater body, from which it receives all the impulses it believes it's 'self' to be generating.

If you're hand gets an ego and says 'I am'. "My name's Mr. Hand. These are my thoughts, my feelings, my will. I presume to generate these things my-self, therefore I am."

Ancient Greeks contemplated a great many things. 1 of them was the question, "Is evrythng separate things or is it 1 whole thing?".
It's a simple deduction that separation is a human/egocentric construct. That there's no real separation btwn us and everything else. No quantum mx necessary. thread>

Blender S studio yt channel is the best content for text in geonodes. It's insane how few views he has. This uses his setup for filling text with lines connected.. Check, check.. #b3d #geometrynodes

Go Sobel.. #b3d #geometrynodes

This is without any compositing.. #b3d #shader

RaVenus @ravenus.bsky.social · 13d

A lot of compositing in this kind of radial blur.. Pretty cool. #b3d #blender3d #shader

This was a fun one.. #b3d #geometrynodes

It blows me away that 30 years was the life expectancy for half of the population in 1840. Today only 1.5% die by 40.

Penicillin has only been in public use for 80 years!!
Tv for 75 years. Radio for 95ish years for widespread use.
Cars for 100yrs. Trains for 135yrs. Thts crazy!!!

Kinda new to working positions of mesh island faces w/ index selection. So this is just 1 way of going about it & I'm sure there are probably easier ways w/ less nodes but I'm just practicing. #b3d #geometrynodes
