the search for thoughts

do thoughts occur within a void within the mind

or can they?


this is a question in relation to the understanding of space and how it may shape the way we think, how we think, what we think of when...

the void in the mind could also be perceived as a space, however microscopic, it could be seen as a body organ, or even the soul. But it may also not exist, as maybe all thought happens in an artifice of substructural contextualisation. Of places built of memories;

of thoughts
of ideas
of concepts
places
people
events
philosophies
happenings

these memories create their own order from the chaos of living, of the mind... when things begin to be placed in an ad hoc non sequential way, we begin our slow descent into what may be madness or possibly genius... maybe the order in which we have rearranged these thoughts is something no one has ever thought of before... the actual thing has existed for centuries, but the way the thing is done or presented seems so new, not because it is (the bottle, the can) but because it seems to be. Because no one ever thought of doing it that way before, not that doing it that way is anything special...
