This is the produce of a fun evening with E, doing our first collaborative translation. Written by M, we helped out, E finding the Greek words and me rearranging them into English thinking. Got me very interested in the worldview carried by the structure of our languages. Ashamed that us Angles are so stingy with our language learning, otherwise perhaps my interest in different, localised? world views through language might be more profound. Suspect many multi-language speakers know this already.

I also wanted to make a note on centre of gravity. I am beginning to wonder if subjectivity is the condensed centre of all the debris of our lives, yes, modelled on the black hole theory. And perhaps, now that we have the internet to show us how constructed we really are, that condensed centre is found outside of our bodies, in cyberspace, in the realm of the unreal. My centre of gravity is here.

Also, on language, been listening to art lectures online, art lectures on line, stumped by the accent differences, thickness of accent, slowing of the words, thickening in the mouth, slowing of grasp, different kind of meaning, more time to make it, to let it stew, words make different associations in other accents.
