I think my theme might be Spinoza vs Leibniz. They’re like 2 little devils on my shoulders, whispering in my ears. Which devil should I listen to is the question.

Been reflecting on the fact that Spinoza was a working lens grinder while rebooting western philosophy on the side On other side, Leibniz was designing bridges and a computer while inventing calculus and resisting the reboot Both revealing activities. Instrumentation vs design

If I’m picking up what you’re throwing down, how about materials? I went through a phase of being really *about* what stuff was made of, how it came to be in the designs and places it was, etc. Was a real cool time.

Maybe something like "patterns"? Impulses? These are sortof "process" ideas, which is perhaps complimentary to materials. Other stuff that I like from the picture plane: Noise "Found art"/Collage Resolution (Pixels, pointillism, etc) Artifacts/distortion
