Arkadien
And yet, everything is new. A new configuration of being, to suit a new set of conditions. Living with the hearth’s cycle, living with the sun’s traverse. Newly able to lie or sit, and look. Cognition spent in the nonmaterial realms projected by the e-reader, a book seeping into this side of reality through its dimly lit non-screen. Pay attention to your thoughts, as they pass your consciousness, as the clouds and hazes pass this vertical window, the grove, and far, the sea.
Ich habe keinen ganz neuen Gedanken gehabt, nichts ganz fremd gefunden, aber die alten sind so bestimmt, so lebendig, so zusammenhängend geworden, daß sie für neu gelten können.
(Goethe, Rom zum ersten Mal erreichend)
