prof.Hacky, manual facility is inextricably bound to observation -- and vice versa.

Individual car wash monkeys like I am with an aptitude for concentrated attention may indeed pick up some eye-and-hand coordination from the act of washing cars and so go on to observe --

OBSERVATIONS ON A WATER – WORN STONE

I

A smooth lake stone, roundly pitted across one surface. It looks as if another stone hides inside, the way one circular pit holds within it the flat protuberance of another color. Again on its side, the slightly darker gray black emerges through the round erosion of light gray skin. There is on one side a deep pit, like a cave or an orifice. It looks like a cell or an amoeba, nucleus at the center, and all sorts of “bodies” floating within its protoplasm. How did the waves of water mark these patterns? The stone is small than the palm of my hand, on the back are different marks, straight lines scratched in the rock shaped like South America or Africa, like a hatchet head, almost a boomerang. I don’t know where it came from.

II

Where it came from, this round erosion of handed rock, like the moon pitted the cold matter of stars, a map of the unknown world, the ancient compass of cells emerging from the deep.

III

The amoeba was made of stone and the nucleus at its center was made of stone and all its protoplasm stone cold stone.

Almost any experience may act as a temporary symbol for a situation which has not yet been organized and cleared up.

Matisse, that beautiful artist, often told his students: "The ideal would be to have a studio with three floors. One would do a first study after the model on the first floor. From the second, one would come down more rarely. On the third, one would have learned to do without the model."

I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand says the ancient Chinese proverb. Monkey around, and solve problems.

… a hundred monkeys . . . . go to other things.

a very nice weekend, to the west. the inevitable result of transformational thinking is synthetic understanding, in which sensory impressions, feelings, knowledge, and memories come together in a multimodal, unified way. we'll see what that can be.
