Beyond the boundary!

Sunday, December 19, 2010

As a student is a very bad experience that you are asked to think 'beyond the boundary' or 'think out of the box', which is never explained!
Why is there a question of boundary if one can act beyond it? Why are we bothered about the things beyond our boundary?
Well, these questions are prevalent in articles like 'Speaking Tree' or 'Look Inside' or similar stuff where you try to learn that your are more confused than the levels you actually feel. That is the way learning goes! Looking back into the previous lines, gives an idea of boundary, which could be the time or energy limitation. It is just that you may not be able to execute it at the moment or a day ago but certainly you can cross it the next day. This vague idea may be boundary limited with the current mature levels of mine.. Something better has to be done tomorrow... That is the way life progresses in time boundary..
There are two kinds of subjects in this boundary limited world, art and science. Definitely, they are different in terms of ideology. Science needs a closed circuit to act. In order to close the boundary we generate 'assumptions', so called 'false certainity'. While, art has no such limitations. Anything that is different and new is acceptable in art. This is the half of the world moves accepting things which in real sense may be an illusion.. Not certain!
Marko Stout , a physician and artist presents a metaphor, 'The Cave' to show how we live with illusions. The Cave is a project to go beyond the human limitations of thinking. It shows how our scientific and engineering approach of life is resting inside a cave. Making predictions based on mere past data without the 'now factor' and ability of this methodology to give partially true outcomes is all life inside the cave. Can we think beyond this cave breaking the chains and illusions? Can the NYC artist show beyond this cave?
Well, so far we have been proactive in adopting the things which were outcomes as a chance. Can I move in the other direction by uncovering the ignorance, illusions and heading towards me?
May be I can do it tomorrow!
