Bourbaki

An axiomatic approach to a proof for all mathematics based on set theory.

The books are very hard to digest . Complex definitions and a weird habit of not stating why they do something until after they've done it. Still, very beneficial.

Sleep


The predominant dilemma of cognitive science.
Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta.
Patterns conserved, Patterns reset.
Cycles refreshed, cycles rerun



Dreams?
The disordered rest of a million synapses.
Forgetting to remember the world the next morning.
The consequence of entropy.

Drugged, Lucid,
Experiments with sensory deprivation.
A hippo on my chest.
Now my lover, singing a ballad.

A rockstar with a plastic guitar.
A golden scaled dragon,
stretching out into infinity.
running across the cataract.


Into Lesbos, screaming at Aristotle.
Into London, screaming at Bacon.
Into Cambridge, screaming at Newton.
Into Home, screaming at myself.

Sleep, child.

Everyone is Fallible.

All men make mistakes.


This is implicit, it is the presupposition behind every statement, every action, every idea of mankind.

Why do I take pictures?

To show something, make people feel, make me feel. For appreciation too, well, I did, at any rate. Not much of that for what I do now.

To be useful too, to some extent. Sometimes, friends want a good picture, nice to be able to do that.

I failed there. A friend I care about needs a picture done for some project, she'd rather ask some talentless idiot than me. Then again, I'm the talentless idiot here, given that there's plenty of evidence heavily against me.

All I seem to be able to get people to feel is pity for the 'intelligent' boy who's wasting his time...

I won't stop. What a fool.
