Walking and Talking #111: Rattling the Perspectival Cage

Benjamin Bennett — Thu, 05 Sep 2024 12:45:00 -0400

In this episode I try to crystalize the idea of "Perspectival Space" as a model of reality.

This episode is audio-only - there is no video version. I like this format and will likely use it more in the future.

Walking and Talking #72: Better Than Happiness

Benjamin Bennett — Thu, 30 Sep 2021 09:00:00 -0400

The madness of love

Is a blessed fate;

And if we understood this

We would seek no other:

It brings into unity

What was divided,

And this is the truth:

Bitterness it makes sweet,

It makes the stranger a neighbor,

And what was lowly it raises on high.

Benjamin Bennett — Wed, 29 Sep 2021 09:00:00 -0400

“In considering the study of physical phenomena, not merely in its bearings on the material wants of life, but in its general influence on the intellectual advancement of mankind, we find its noblest and most important result to be a knowledge of the chain of connection, by which all natural forces are linked together, and made mutually dependent upon each other; and it is the perception of these relations that exalts our views and ennobles our enjoyments.”

“Grace transforms our failings full of dread into abundant, endless comfort … our failings full of shame into a noble, glorious rising … our dying full of sorrow into holy, blissful life. …. Just as our contrariness here on earth brings us pain, shame and sorrow, so grace brings us surpassing comfort, glory, and bliss in heaven … And that shall be a property of blessed love, that we shall know in God, which we might never have known without first experiencing woe.”

“The marvelous logic of the mad which seems to mock that of the logicians because it resembles it so exactly, or rather because it is exactly the same, and because at the secret heart of madness, at the core of so many errors, so many absurdities, so many words and gestures without consequence, we discover, finally, the hidden perfection of a language.”

"The world is not divided into stand-alone entities. It is we who divide it into objects for our convenience. A mountain chain is not divided into individual mountains: it is we who divide it up into parts that strike us as in some way separate. A countless number of out definitions, perhaps all of them, are relational: a mother is a mother because she has a child; a planet is a planet because it orbits a star; a predator is such because it hunts prey; a position in space is there only in relation to something else. Even time exists only as a set of relations."

Benjamin Bennett — Fri, 03 Sep 2021 09:00:00 -0400

"Now, a lot of people look for answers in spirituality or different texts, but for me this is life. This is what life is: the passage of time. It's not about how to pass the time, but about the acceptance of the time passing. I know people think of my work as spiritual, but really it's just that I consume time. That's all."

Walking and Talking #1

Benjamin Bennett — Wed, 25 Aug 2021 09:00:00 -0400

This is the very first episode of Walking and Talking, originally recorded in August of 2017.

I've added a 3-minute introduction, recorded in August of 2021.

The original audio quality is somewhat poor due to mic-handling and wind noise, though it gets slightly better mid-episode when it dawns on me to attach the wind-screen.
