alright, still working on the ism. i need a name for the ideology to which i expect everybody to conform, or face re-education. it's a view that is at the center of my approach to epistemology/theory of truth, ethics, aesthetics, political philosophy: that human beings are penetrated by the world, that perception is incorporation, actually taking the world into one's body. back in the era of "obscenity, anarchy, reality," i used to say: being in the world is like being impaled on a huge spike. now i'm less frantic. the best formulation is emerson's: "A man is a bundle of relations, a knot of roots, whose flowers and fruitage is the world. His faculties refer to natures out of him, and predict the world he is to inhabit, as the fins of the fish foreshadow that water exists, or the wings of an eagle in the egg presuppose air."
