Thing Power
If every thing could connect to any thing, the unfolding of meaning would be unlimited, and would go on forever and ever. Let’s look at all the stuff that surrounds us, our bowls, our hands, our sounds, our phones, our beds, our babies, our dogs. All that stuff dances in never ending categories, in mini-operas with the tempo of tiny things.
“Objects on the loose are always in search of the rest of the plot” Charles Jencks.
