is it pi

how tech is shaping our language

via @joebires

the silos are coming down... the labels dismantling the now dismantled, the edit king no longer holds all the keys to convo..to communication. which means...more voices are heard. rhizomatic voices...we've needed and craved all along.. we just assumed they weren't allowed. or didn't sing as pretty a song. if we listen...w/o an agenda.. ie:w/o that edit pen,our ego, our fears, etc... perhaps... well find people falling in love with language..with communicating...with writing and reading even. but most of all.. falling in love with people, since after all.. it was our assumption that we had communicated that got us to fear, build silos, ... etc, ... in the first place. no?

so...practicing this post with a math lens:
IMO...people worried about the basics... most likely don't really know potentials of pi or how to rationalize a denom.. or the implications of imag #'s... which btw we are all buying into as basics via common core Pisa ..most of our publicly prescribed cuuric. not so much out of loving silos.. or comfort in our egos... but because we love people... ESP those we know most... and we want what's best for them. we're just not (for whatever reasons: pride/fear, greed/fear, fear/fear, etc/fear) feeling empowered (or the freedom or comfort in irresolution and ignorancy) enough to question that...

our own assumed, fake, scripted, etc... basics...leading us to a space (our own spaces) where soul peace is rare.. so we desire more for those around us.. but in our insecurities (again, IMO, often via our lack of soul peace), we imagine more is more.. unable to see... because we often only look with our eyes or our brains... not our hearts (yes ...see I am film)..what we're failing to see, IMO of utmost importance... is that less is more, and we are all good just now. let's trust that. less of each of us good people coming together... that is more. the coming together makes it more.

and the circle of life comes back around... to communication.. in whatever form... because like us... our hearts each have their own thumbprint .. perhaps the more we see that... the more we look for that.. listen to that without an agenda or proof... the closer the limit will come to the degrees of separation...maybe we'll see a convergence on 3.14 after all. three people away.. plus at least one lurker... no?


diameter as furthest distance in a circle. most unlikely match...most divergent language .. most rhizomatic of expertise... even them... and huge note:ESP them.. is where we find our hearts at the limit, at the edge, ... of becoming one.
