An Ignorant Poetics of Fungi, Slime-molds, Lichen * http://www.alansondheim.org/cairn151.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/streetmess41.jpg (Hurricane Sandy) "[...] I believed that I could already see its outlines. It was a _fata morgana;_ I continue to drift on the boundless and foggy sea of the precategorial." (Aron Gurwitsch to Alfred Schutz, August 1, 1951) blank space and formless space, fungi - always back to my own ignorance, inability to comprehend, trace, classify, inhabit or dwell here, or rather: dwelling within the blank (of the white-out blizzard, absolute darkness, anechoic chamber, catatonic death); or rather: not dwelling at all; this soup, these dusts, are our own. http://www.alansondheim.org/fossilsfungi.mp4 and a few fungi both rely on a phenomenology, of dwelling, of perception: nothing is blank, nothing formless. but: the cold death of the universe - then and only then, the blank, the formless: but: no one there to witness, to bear witness, to name: until or now: the formless is a _matter_ of perception: of cohesion, of mathesis, of penetration so that for exmaple, noise: how this functions, the bandwidth, and so forth. it is always a matter of aggregates, multiple (theoretical) acts of differentiation and integration: what does one _see_ or _determine_ in an unknown and indeterminate fungus? what mental operations are carried out? differentiation creates striations, boundaries; integration focuses on smothing operations that reveal macro- dynamics and forms. the indeterminacy lies between the two operations: neti neti, not that not that (which relates to Carnaedes and Schutz's interpretation in his relevance theory). Objects are a weather. Fungi are a weather - the soup whose boundaries extend throughout the environmental matrix. Think of the genomes in the broadest sense - this articulation and coding that seethes everywhere. Fungi in the broadest sense are always a surprise. Dusts and radiation, nanoparticles and the mist of the organic.
