Belated well wishes to everyone for the various everythings-

Now that we're post explosions, shall we touch base with one another? I feel utterly out of touch. Like this year has started out of the gate like a horse with its tail on fire.

Perhaps it's all the new arrivals. Hello, little things! I hope all your questions have been answered. If they haven't perhaps I could give it a go, hm?

Everything around us exists at the same point we do. What we consider time passes on whether we're paying attention to it or not, whether it's marked or ignored.

A pointless question. Of course there was time.

I'm not sure it's that simple.

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

So what is it to you?

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Ultimately, I think everything we know exists as things our minds take in. Nothing comes to us unaltered by perception. Colour- red in one light is orange in another. The object itself is constant, the perception is not, the categorization of colours must be flexible.

Which is why testing anything we perceive is important. A single observation is next to useless in any kind of real analysis.

Ah, I suppose so. Still, it can't erase the moment of orangeness.

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

Misperceptions are unavoidable.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

Neither are they necessarily wrong.

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

How is a misconception not wrong? And don't say it's just a matter of perspective.

[mister-hatter.livejournal.com]

But it is. And a matter of light. Who is to say which light is the best?

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

That's nothing but pointless complication. There isn't a best, just different sorts of accuracy.
