Two things:
1. I am tired of this project. I am excited about the work. I am happy that I am learning so much, but I am physically tired. I realized today that ideas cannot be forced. Which is, in my opinion such a weird concept. The concept that the harder I try to force something the less likely it is to happen. I felt a little pressure today to think of interesting things, but alas nothing.
2. I left the studio and went out to dinner with some friends. Guess what? Great conversation and a plethora of ideas. I think for the first time in my life I have formed a real belief that I want to make a solid part of my life. Some people believe in god, and they really believe. I have always been so amazed by this belief because I have never felt such a thing (I am sure I have a lot of ingrained beliefs that I am not identify very well). Last night I realized that my belief in the universe has to do with balance.
The most truth I see lies in between the poles.
The Grey area, it makes so much sense - I love grey.
My name is Thomas Stollar. This is my last semester of graduate school at WVU. My thesis deals with introspection, and gaining a better understanding of how everyday experiences shape human character. The project is process oriented with the intention of documenting my most thought provoking experience for each day of January 2012. Each experience will be symbolically decorated onto forms like these. In the end all of the forms will compose a metaphorical version of my personality.
