This is a meditation on the dialectics of self-sentience. Especially appreciated as I’m co-reading The Poetics of Space along with House of Leaves. The metaphor of the ebbs and flows of thoughts presented as breathing brings to mind the dialectic of the corner (the contradiction of interior/exterior) which Bachelard explores and re-interpereted by Danielewski (by my appraisal) as the ‘respiration’ of (what I call) the hyperinteriority of the Navidson residence. I am led to reflect on the ergodic nature of the visual poem you’ve created here and can’t help but note that there is no exit offered until the end of the ride. I assume this is done purposefully. Thank you for this labor.
Thank you for taking the time to read my poem! Indeed there is no exit until the very end of the poem which was made intentional due to the nature of thoughts in general. I also appreciate the readings that you provided in your review and look forward to reading them as they have piqued my interest. I hope to continue making more works like this one in the future. Again, thank you for this very thoughtful review! 𓂃⋆.˚
