Aesthetic Experience

••••••••••••• Read the Printed Word!

and since i’m done with classes now until January (oh yeah quarter system), I think i’m going to take the time to do some sort of list thing.

In no particular order, I’m going to give you my aesthetic experiences.  Moments when something natural, or a work of art, or really anything struck me in such a way that I was fully alive in the moment.  That I was absorbed, resonating, and living in whatever it was that temporarily detached me from the real world.  i’ll try to use my own pictures for everything, and do my best to explain where I went for those seconds or minutes or days.

You know those moments when you’ve looked at something, heard a piece of music, been at the heart of a crowd or been completely alone, and for whatever reason, your heart raced, your eyes widened, and you began to wonder how something so innocuous and so unexpected could capture your senses in such a way.

So, starting later today, my aesthetic experiences.

be prepared for some self realization, losing your breath, and likely a bit of pretention, but it’s a fucking blog so that’s kind of the point, right?
