>there is no automatism in communication that creates sense
1 a : the quality or state of being automatic
b : an automatic action
2 : the power or fact of moving or functioning without conscious control
either independently of external stimuli (as in the beating of the heart)
or under the influence of external stimuli (as in pupil dilation)
3 : a theory that views the body as a machine and consciousness
as a noncontrolling adjunct of the body
4 : suspension of the conscious mind to release subconscious images
<automatism --the surrealist trend toward spontaneity and intuition -- Elle>
2 much control gets in the way not automatic not reflexive consider
a program or a patch or a complex 2 complex for reflex can't express
or not outward or a true representation of inner not feeling not
perhaps a state of mind or a state of being too much programmatic control
far too many intermediate steps and menus and too many intermediaries
inhibits a certain reaction too much voilition concious thought
and control self analysis and second guessing the media the means of
expression not immediate enough the software never became second nature
always an upgrade or an update rendered obsolete before a true symbiotic
quality emerges theory or emergent behavior a suspension of the concious
mind is exactly what is needed in this over mediated environment
these ultra-programmatic mindsets and environments for the creation of
sound and image quite nice yet only engaging one aspect of ourselves and the
power or fact of moving or functioning without concious control either
independently of external stimuli (as in the beating of the heart) or under the
influence of external stimuli (as in pupil dilation) remains elusive unknown
forgotten not unlike yet another email archived forever via google so ciao.
