language ..more associations...
in direct face-to-face communication:
1) we use words and sound and silence
2) we use intonation and rhythm and melody
3) we use physical language, gestures, facial expression, posture, movement, touch
etc
what can words do
4) they name the world and ourselves within a context
which is deeply saturated with our history and our stories
5) they can hide a truth, they do so very easily
6) they can hint at a truth
7) they always create their own truth
8) they can be a means of partial communication
9) they do not come alone, they come with us,
with our experience, our ideas, our wishes,
our disagreements, they come with all the
complicated and boring and terrible obstacles of
social life circumstances, they come with e-motion
enveloped in words
10) they can be a means of domination
11) they can be funny
12) they can cause a war , but this should
not be overestimated, it is not beliefs, words
or ideas which cause wars, it is powerful people
and their egoistic interest
13) they can cause a revolution, but only when they come at the right
time, again, it is the people who want a change
etc
can written language be analyzed the same way
as in a living face-to-face communication:
14) no
15) written language has to be analyzed within its context
16) we must first analyze the written context for origin, intention
and authenticity
17) face-to-face the context is in front of us
18) face-to-face we need to analyze the intentions of the other one
as our context , and this one is not written in words but in the
experience of behaviour
etc
can we lose words?
19) yes.
20) we should lose loads of words,
but the request here is for losing
loads of ideas, violent opinions
and sight-damaging spectacles
etc
and now i am fed up with words,
21) words can be boring
time for music...
