《Rusty Dream》Apparition

Advertisement

Eyes closed and a pool of water comes into sight: ripples and a serpent rises from it. The serpent falls lifelessly and decays on the water, a bony, starved corpse–but soon bloat expands the shrunken, and with waxing fat comes the smell of the turgid dead. Eyes open: ah, this day has passed away. Long lists of things to do. No pool in sight. Rescind into "the wide womb of uncreated night."

Knowledge is neither processed nor learned straightforwardly: the notion of introducing concepts from most simple to most complex is perhaps not how we learn: as children we must learn language, object permanence, how to walk and so on. Perhaps being presented with consistently baffling, foreign information would serve to keep the brain more adept. A case in point, linguistics. Although sleeping dogs still lie, language learning can be enhanced by linguistic understanding. Attacking language concepts and puzzling out grammatical patterns enriches the capacity to learn language, I reckon. Moreover, I posit, information is better understood when explained semi-bafflingly: it demands mental locomotion on the learner's part, and more closely resembles information we would find in the natural world.
