“I had always made pictures as I thought I saw the world, focusing on what lay in front, but this is not how one sees the world. It only frames the centre and cuts off the lateral vision, which lies unfocused. Now I found that I could turn my eye to the adjacent field of vision, seeing another focus, an extension which I added to the original. Instead of stopping at two focuses, I looked further to the side, adding another and yet another.” WorldMadeTwoEyeLyingTurnsFoundSidesVisionSawsFocusCuttingSeeingFrontsFieldsOriginalsLaysCentreExtensionsStopping Author:Joseph Plaskett
“In the humanist ideal, the mainstream is where interesting debate, the generating of new ideas and creativity take place. In rational society this mainstream is considered uncontrollable and is therefore made marginal. The centre ground is occupied instead by structures and courtiers.” MadeIdeasInterestingCreativityIdealsStructureDebateRationalHumanistMainstreamNew IdeasCentreUncontrollableIdeas And CreativityCourtiers Author:John Ralston Saul
