Theme 22 : The flood of consciousness and the language
I. Development of the world culture and fixation (awareness) of the flood of consciousness (FC).
1. Actual vision and imagination. Vision (seeing) within two first weeks of life, dependence of
vision on human imagination, distortion by imagination.
2. The idea of a person about himself, amount of knowledge about oneself as a species and
resultative psychological actions. Perfection of analytism.
3. FC is determined by the conditions of existence in refracted state.
4. Suspension of a moment as a natural need.
5. The Altamira cave (running buffaloes) and Delaunay (a lady, walking downstairs); a symbol of
FC, incomplete discrete image.
II. Qualities of FC
1. Background thought-state ("a split"; "pauses in shashlik" -> discretion of thought), dependence
on images of the background thought.
2. Reflection of inner and outer events as an act of orientation (power vectors of life -> worlds,
flying up along magnetic power vectors). Convictions, principles.
3. Lifelong happening of FC, unpredictability of FC as the source of interest to life.
4. Modeling of future as the aim of the current FC.
5. Ability of FC to get denser, to dilute, to branch, to diverge.
6. Receptory layer of FC (musical, image-guided, graphic, tactile, vegetative and physiological,
verbal and colorful) , clusters of unidentified states as a layer of the soul, a psychoreceptor.
7. FC as a psychic burden (TEDIUM VITAE, sublimation tensions).
8. FC and culture of sublimation (power of thought, FC guidance, deepening of a personality's
"river bed," guidance of emotions and sensations).
9. FC and assessments (axiological lability).
10. FC as the process of canceling feelings and states ("continuation of life is the denial of the
previous, which has been better").
11. FC and emotions (coefficient of "sobriety", quality of awareness, waterfall of consciousness:
"beautiful but too foamy"; possibility of sobering up - the left brain involvement "not to be too
sorry about a "cavern" in life"):
a) positive emotions and FC: high speed of thinking, surpassing effect of thought motion,
increased heuristic ability, but actually apparent (the effect of "jumping through" of the
first type);
b) negative emotions and FC: decreasing speed of thinking ("a melancholic pond with big fish"),
the effect of "jumping through" of the second type - "jamming of the background
thought-state"; "getting snagged on" prevents from recognizing a discovery; overcoming of deceptive situation, continuation of work (fixation) with the result of making a discovery; decreasing coefficient of "sobriety" at the expense of aware acceleration of thinking,
frequent changes of deliberate microactivities; paradoxical joy of "turbid water" ("I'll find
something!");
c) emotions and feelings; the emotion born by the assessment of one's own feeling
("recollection in the morning that you are in love");
d) "electronic tree" of imagination and FC guidance, imaginary being outdoors - in the forest, in
the field, etc.
III. FC and linguistic aspects of thinking.
1. Verbal thinking, awareness of one's own thinking; psycholinguistics, studying of the resources
of verbal thinking; schools (K. Jackobson, A. Reformatsky, etc.)
2. Rational involvement of language (chaining of definitions as the means of foreign language
involvement).
3. Non-equivalence of FC to the stream of verbal (logical) presentation of thought.
4. Verbal complexes; incapability of words to exist solely ("not to block complex formations");
"CLUB TOAST MASTERS INTERNATIONAL". Speaking to the audiences (including
numerous ones), studying rhetoric; codex of professional civilized communication; emotional
communication; vivid, convincing presentation of one's thoughts in the native language (as
the starting point for speaking in a foreign language).
5. FC and artistic image: "Qualitative flood of consciousness" - artistic and philosophical, or
quasi-artistic and philosophical (enrichment of cliches, experimental embroadening -
automatic search).
6. FC and philology; J. Joyce "Ulysses"; L. Tolstoy (L. Stern); the poetical in literature as a
condensate of an artistic and philosophic personality's FC; poetical, ethical and FC (poetry
in daily life - sense of beauty in silence figures); intuitive perception of another person's FC.
7. Foothold languages.* * *
| I dream about the ancient and new books about bold statements with the past connected. My wish is clear and even may be acted in drama where the actors are the spooks of this reality that like the imagined looks, and steady every days' and nights' play last a process of a prolonged lust, of a converting good men into crooks. But clearness ends abruptly in a dim wet from the tears, my sleep transforming stream of memory, that is like time existence on things; events' and feelings' broad space. And everything then is reversed and plays a mystic part in Theatre of Distance. |
