    being static patterns which are forced to be updated so frequently
    current ideas can claim to be the clearest mirroring of DQ.

    a difference between ideas and art (which is one of the truer, not
    clearer, mirrors of DQ) is that an idea (in general) points
    to the same static pattern, while art (which may include some ideas) in
    general may point to different static patterns at different times.

    by clarity what is ment is that when comunicating (even with ones self)
    one knows what it is that is being comunicated. so while actions commited
    based on impusive reactions to say a piece of music are `better' one can
    only `know' that it is better based on a retrospective reading of an
    (posibly new) idea into the action.
