You have certainly given me pause for thought Bo, and i appreciate the
quality of that.
Thanks.
In a sense, i have a feeling you are stating more explicitly what Pirsig
calls the new Mythos.
Our mythos is that of rationality and rationality is held up as the crowning
jewel of intellect!
Like dancing, music, rhythm, poetry and image are not intellectual also?!
But note how many classicists explored the 'underlying' geometry's and maths
of ratios in art?
Even now people are looking into fractals embedded in the works of Blake!
Nope.
Reason is post beauty - Beauty (Quality) creates reason.
But where is reason going?
Quality's intellect?
I am not convinced we cannot be highly intellectual beings without reason.
Maybe SOM is a big mistake and is heading down a one way cul de sac?
I have to give more thought to this Bo...
All the best,
Squonk.
