Post-Modernism: Deconstruction and Derrida Pt. 2

by Eric Czygan through Professor Rev. Dr. James Kenneth Powell II, opensourcebuddhism.org This very imaginative and painstakingly visual project reveals so many valuable core facts concerning the nature of Post-Modernism. We see Modernism and Structuralism contrasted as well. Czygan has taken a very abstruse topic and made it comprehensible, though it may take a few viewings to grasp these subtle points. A multi-level video editing job "deconstructs" the videography itself as Czygan's piece is highly self-aware. Excellent work...jp

I can't help but feel like we are only really studying our own minds, and becoming more confused and fractured in the process. Applying deconstruction to phenomenology is like trying to find the essential core of a Mandelbrot image by zooming in. As the video said, there is no beginning or end, one can only substitute one center for another. I used to look for truth in this way. Ironically, I got a lot closer to the center once I got beyond thought.

Good expication, but i think it would be better without the music in the background.

Re: Mind, Body 3:10 . Differentiation of surroundings and more generally, of phenomenon is a conditioned state of the brain. The abilities to distinguish colors, shapes, textures and sounds are to be found within a continuous, albeit narrow spectrum. If we include people of abilities outside of the normal range, the spectrum of differentiation widens.

@tarjeeling you mean the cars. I think it's commonly called noon traffic. I also had radio on so I could hear what music and words leaked through my consentration on 'deconstruction video'. I also have developed intuitive images and carricatures (ok beoynd currycatures) of these morningshow hosts, most of the time it's like I'm really sharing a studio and 'mental space' with them

... Wow - my mind is blown after concentrating so hard and then being slammed with those awesome tunes throughout 7:00... Oh and for everyone out there - quit acting as if this is easy to understand

Thumbs up if you heard weezer playing in the backround

[ciaranppp]

Thumbs up if you heard the Smashing Pumpkins music in the backround

[tarjeeling]

[tarjeeling]

What is that ridiculous music?! It is so annoying and distracting noise in the background!
