\\\///

I drift behind eyelids to a landscape beyond surreal.
Somewhere parrallel, in the underground of nerves, real and unreal dissolving.
Blanketed in transparency, passengers sit on moving trains; inside is still and unmoving.
Makes wide-eyed passengers pace up and down the aisles trying to force immovable doors, then squash their faces against the windows, distorted, disturbed.
Looking out at me waving, their teardrops about to let go of rusting faucets.
Licorice straps of tracks melt a single collective track, destination set.
My silhouette against a platform of graffiti shadows speaks from a different kind of clarity and disorder.
Breathed upon the world I am, freer, the big in the little thing.
Sighed by passengers by, but a breath of fresh air to those who alight.

My Philosophy

Ideology: Self-actualisation.

Metaphysics
The big bang > evolution 
Soft-determinism - it represents sitting on the fence between determinism and humanism.
The task on a humans consciousness is to perceive reality, but do we alter it or change the perception between the observation and producing the inner object of cognition? Then, do we respond with any possibility of free will?
I continually question whether we have free will. I want to understand more about determinism (classical physics) and quantum physics (probability) - because not a single physics law or theory acknowledges Free Will. According to the laws of physics, Free Will is impossible unless it is actually just determinism (someone makes a decision but it is determined by everything that has come before) or probability (that there are a range of outcomes - and this alludes to multiple universes). With my amateur amount of knowledge on the subjects, I am exploring both of these theories to better understand what could be possible in our world. I do this because I think this will influence how I operate in the world; whether there is free will or not. 

Aesthetics
The purpose of my art is to explore my fundamental view of existence.
