I refer more to relation than beings.

- Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge

Art does not reproduce the visible; rather, it makes visible.

- Paul Klee

Being is not the straight line a photon travels, but fractal, 

like the edge of a borealis. 

- Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge

You can rise to a level of not knowing that’s untouched by entropy. 

Out of uncertainty, openness: order is maintained.

- Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge

We now find ourselves in a world where we understand how everything works

but we know the meaning of nothing.

- John Lennox quotes Iain McGilchrist, The Diary of a CEO (June 2026)

I think I must be somewhere else, not here,

not in this city, this heartland of pure noise.

- Ai

in the silence so complete

- ai

my mind empty

like the Buddhists tell you is possible

if only you don’t try.

If only I could

turn myself into a bird

like the shaman I was meant to be,

but I can’t,

I’m earthbound

and solitude is my companion,

the only one you can count on.

Don’t, don’t try to tell me otherwise.

I’ve had it all and lost it

- Ai

Noch-Nicht

AR

o amanhã

nunca falta

quem falta

sou eu

Remember Dorothy and the Yellow Brick Road?

There’s no pot of gold at the end,

but we keep walking that road

- Ai

I've discovered over the decades that humans are incredibly short-term oriented. And that they have an enormous predisposition to optimism. They're looking for optimistic news in everything. They're looking to avoid unpleasantness.

- Jeremy Grantham, The Diary of a CEO (30 June 2026)

A relation of cruel optimism exists when something 

you desire is actually an obstacle to your flourishing.

- Lauren Berlant
