Some annoyances, in review

Tasks / Trajectories I’ve set for myself:

  • a more elaborate calendar
  • a Science of Material Reality for Consciousness - the “critical instrument”
  • New modes of social relationship - the “free dialectical space”
  • post-politics - “mere management”
  • Post-Property Economics
    • Post-Money Finance
  • Social-Semiotics
  • Contemplation-for-Action
  • Statistical Hermeneutics

Elaborate Calendar

I must define for myself a life-scheme which comprehends everything: Projects, Life, and Work. Each will constitute three moments of a totality, Self. Projects are mediated through Work from the vantage of Life. Projects are mediated through Life from the vantage of Work. Life is mediated through Work from the vantage of Projects. Thus:

flowchart LR
subgraph 1[Self]
	direction LR
	A[Work]
	B[Life]
	C[Projects]
	
	A --> B --> C
	C --> A
end 

Now, the essential problem for this calendar will be that Life demands free movement, whereas Work and Projects demand planning. So, if I try to make planned Life, which must be unplanned, I will be unable to allow life to move in the course of its own operations, as I will be perpetually distracted in anticipation for what has yet to be done according to my plans.

This is a meta-issue, at some level, as I cannot guarantee that all things that I intend to do freely cannot be at least blocked out for myself. I need about 30 minutes at the end of the day (the time of this writing) to conduct a review and to get my mind in order. I also need an hour during the day to simply do as I desire, in free relaxation of myself. Indeed, too much of what I want to do has ceased to be purely self-cultivative in its practices and has, rather, fallen in to the kind of ideological management that I detest. Though, I realize now that this management is necessary, so far as it is not compulsory. Indeed, the contours of this “management” are becoming deeper for me, and I do see the need for good scholarship as a means towards my greater ends. All this being said, I must make sure not to run myself ragged trying to do too many things at once. I must make for myself time for free expression and being-out-of-love, rather than being-out-of-fear. This 30 minutes is an attempt at that, but it is not sufficient. I want also to play the piano, watch tv, and so on. ❗️ **&nbspI also need to breathe and meditate.&nbsp ** ❗️

Self, Life, Work, and Projects must be developed above, so that I can have a comprehensive view of all such things. I want “Self” to stand as a comprehensive locus for regular writing and management of myself and all that I am. I must keep aware of this, or else I will surely forget it! (Example: today I felt again the feeling that life was before me in immediate actuality. All around me felt loving, wholly and truly, though I could name no reason for why this was. Perhaps it was because others said my name. I ought to do the same with them, for its own sake. I just need to, my god, I want to. It is always so hard to put this into practice. Yet I cannot forget how necessary it is.)

The Critical Instrument

This must be one of my research projects or, I should say, one of my meta-projects. This is a rhetorical, communicalogical, educational device for creating critical experiences. (Critical experiences are those which bring one to bear with a pure ought, a sense that what is given to him is insufficient for something, that what is given can be conceivably better.)

It will entail a moment of philosophic justification, whereby the possibility of criticism and the possibility of its instrumentatility can be generated. This possibility must also comprehend an immanent necessity and justification, so that the speech of any criticizer has the relevant justification for its being spoken.

Social-Semiotics

Will occur as a moment of study within the creation of the critical instrument.

Free Dialectical Space

This too will be a meta-project. As I conceive of it now, it will entail several things once achieved.

  1. Political moment - it will gather, refine, and harness public experience for politicians
  2. Social moment - it will do the above for corporations and other group-entities, as a group for those without a group
  3. Ritual moment - it will exist as a cultural space with right-procedures informed by anthropology and history for the sublimating of experience into group consciousness without tyranny ‘

To achieve this, I will require:

  1. Studying, in (a) political science (b) political administration (c) anthropology of ritual (d) management
  2. Capital
  3. connections

It will proceed triply. First, through an undergraduate club. Second, through my YouTube channel. Third, through graduate research and experimentation.

Contemplation-for-Action

Will be generated as a theory as a moment of free dialectics.

Statistical Hermeneutics

Will also be generated as a moment of this project.

Post-Politics

This is a merely theoretical idea that I must develop as I study anthropology and political science. We want a world where men, through free dialectic, live and manage themselves, thereby managing each other. The “political” should dissolve as this become actual.

Post-Property and Post-Money Economy

These are the ends of my studies in political science and anthropology.

Overview

From the above working out, I see that my interests are four-fold. I can represent them this way:

A[Critical Instrumentation]
A.1[Social-Semiotics]

B[Free Dialectics]
B.1[Contemplation-for-Action]
B.2[Statistical-Experiential Hermeneutics]

D[Post-Politics]

A --> A.1
B --> B.1 & B.2
