THE ELECTRONIC CHRONICLES

TWIN LIONS CORNERSTONE EXCAVATION


WHAT'S KNOT TO LIKE?


Burrowing in and out of the writings of great minds of their time like industrious prairie dogs, 21st century wizards searched for an appropriate structure for these chronicles.

The structural armature would have to prove fertile ground for the growth of significant pluralism and surrender the albatross of a MAIN IDEA as the armature of a hierarchical structure.


Thus, enter:

THE BORROMEAN KNOT

The Borromean Knot consists of 3 rings which, together, constitute an entire world.

Modeled in 20th century by Jacques Lacan, this model in particular stressed the existence of three simultaneous registers in life: the imaginary, the symbolic and the real.

The Symbolic registers the construction of language; the Imaginary registers the fantasy and imagery in our lives and the Reality completes the configuration with whatever is left over and unaccountable for, impossible to symbolize, a nd/or inexpressible. It is Dr. Musing's contention that most of the Reality Ring emerges as the unstated content produced in the silent but profound synapse-space of each link between things in a pluralistic world.
