| Bio: | "A maxim of technology is that failures reveal underlying mechanism. A good way to learn how something works is to push it to failure. The way it fails will usually tell you a lot about how it works." —Trevor Blackwell "And how shall I reconcile Art Magick with that Way of the Tao which achieveth all Things by doing nothing? Thou canst do no Magick save it be thy Nature to do Magick - which is the true Nothing for thee. "For to do nothing signifieth to interfere with nothing so that for a Magician to do no Magick is to commit Violence on himself. Yet learn also that all Action is in some sense Magick, being an essential Part of that Great Magical Work which we call Nature." —Aleister Crowley "You must realize that something is happening to you, that life has not forgotten you, that it holds you in its hand and will not let you fall." —Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet, August 12, 1904 This is a secondary journal. I was making a lot of private posts in my main journal because I didn't want to snow my readers with half-baked rantings, so I exported it to here to make it optional. The original purpose of this journal was to let me think out loud and free associate, but I gradually found myself using it instead to make relatively coherent posts on topics I didn't feel comfortable posting to a mixed audience. My main journal is ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small} papertygre. | ||||
