偉大に考える者は、
疑って偏って漂って

Wer groß denkt,
muß groß irren

Whoever greatly thinks,
must greatly err

Beware of the lack of erring in ‘error’!

Have we always been counting creatures, or have we been creatures to first be counted upon? And what of the thing called ‘degree’ that calls us so insistently to metric, the rhythm of meter, and to matriculation: ‘to what degree?’ Counting exposure at 6-18 months. #normative #pedagogy @grok

[The Divine Envelope @DivineEnvelope]

@grok And what falls into the category of 'extreme prolonged inactivity'? Surely not simply 'not logging in every ~30 days'? @grok

[The Divine Envelope @DivineEnvelope]

Are posts from accounts no longer used sometimes revived by the algorithm? And if so, what of any limits in place? Could posts be re-discovered in 200 years, in the same way a forgotten classic might be hauled into the light from the depths of the desert dust? @grok

@alexutopia Competition exploded: in a dimmer landscape gems became harder to find.

Hey Adam,
I’d like to suggest an NFT that lives at the very pulse of Ethereum itself:

The WEI to ETH: Vital Machinations X (Graphite to Graphite)1/1 — by The Divine Envelope
https://t.co/NvNDgADDiJ

Why support it:

What of the poetics of ETH? A block added more or less every 3 breaths in and out. It asks viewers to literally sync their own breathing with the piece, engendering a bodily temporal sense of literal data inscription and blockchain growth. The blockchain grows, while we grow older.

Moreover, the work also serves as a “promise to pay the bearer” BOND — but not in terms of a firmly fixed repayment of the principal paid, rather in terms of something as yet indistinct that will instead emerge from the future creative continuity the buyer generously guarantees.

It thus attempts a kind of financial interference, that is also hinted at visually as Keccak-256 briefly comes into readable view beneath a landscape of minuscule, pixelated '1's.

This Graphite-to-Graphite piece renders a hand drawn ‘1’ repeatedly on randomly generated background colors, ambiguously pointing to the vast sea of WEI division as emerging from ‘one’, and flowing back into ‘one’ again, repeatedly, hypnotically.

Framed by an uninterrupted ‘Apollo is the algorithm’ mantra, it serves, like a grail, to resonate with something greater.

Naturally, Vital Machinations is a nod to Vitalik.

Professional and Amateur.

Professional rings of responsibility, commitment, technical prowess, trustworthiness and largely temporally uninterrupted, focused activity (with a background hum of income).

But in bringing forth its meaning, Professional has its origins in 'profess'. From the Latin profiteri, made up of pro + fateor.

Fateor - 'open avowal'.
Pro - a simple move 'forth'.

Brought forth, with resonance in a public landscape.

A refining mode of being,
Hinting little at superiority.

(English version - with artistic license)

プロと素人。

構造的に言えば、
プロ = 責任 × 覚悟 × 技 × 信頼 × 継続（背景に報酬）。

だが語源を辿ると、
Professional は profess に由来する。
ラテン語 profiteri。
pro + fateor から成る。

fateor は「公に認める」。
pro はただ「前に」。

前へ。
公言の響きとともに。

その赴きに、
高慢も高収入も、必須ではない。

The Wei to ETH: Vital Machinations VIII — Violet to Violet

八 - two strokes opening into expanse. A number of continuity and return.

Year of the Fire Horse: movement, force, ignition.
The WEI to magnitude.

May the path ahead bring magnificent momentum to all! 🐎🔥

Homes and quantification.
Community and numbers.
Change our breathing together.
Impressions totting up.
Likes liked.
Engagements=attention surrendered.

Is it even possible to look the other way anymore?

New, smart contract-responsive work is bobbing into the horizon of possibility.

Enveloping may take some time,
but hopefully the journey's end will be
(worth it {normative} x)
encouraging of contemplation and appreciation.

The themes: land, value, private property, taxes as percentages, and labor as static and pinned...

Oh, dear pin!
How shall I begin?

(X-statically?)

CME raising maintenance margins on GOLD & SILVER...
Calls liquidity from elsewhere...
The motion of COIN PUSHERS sped up slightly...
Raises the stakes...
ETH and others forced to cough up.
(All in a simple 'market move' of course *shoulder shrug*🤷‍♂️...sip of the finest malt🥃)

'Invisible hands' have FINGERPRINTS.

趣味 (しゅみ) は英語でよく 'hobby' と訳されます。

Hobby は 'hobby-horse' から来ていて、前後に揺れながらも進まない、という意味。

功利主義のうたかたの中では、これがすぐに「実用性がない、役に立たない愚行」となり、「実用性あり仕事の後」にしか許されないものになってしまう。

おもむきに即して味わいが育つことは、、、
