● Reflections on the selective nature of memory, the subjectivity of perception and the freedom of human will to change it. ● There are landscapes which pass and landscapes which remain. ● Landscape is a synthesis between man and the environment. It can also be a quantum reflection of time in the changing matter or in the immaterial, such as memory is. ● The REMAINING landscapes are fixed more steadily in the memory and they are objectified as a reality that can be proven. They are related to introspection and our internal metrics. ● The PASSING landscapes are vaguely specified, almost on the fiction’s fringes of their reality. They bear no references to any events and personal experiences. ...
● But if the contemplator and the landscape are at rest and in mutual rapport, the landscape remains and there is someone to observe … When no one is watching, there is no landscape too… Greetings from Schopenhauer.
● The normal state of things as a utopia of a new kind, which has already been and will be. Dreaming of the ordinary as awareness of the paradise lost.
