✴ pad collecting
✴ week 1
⋆ kicking off special issue XX
⋆ introductions, conversations on rituals and games
⋆ shared about my horse tunnel game where i would pretend to be a horse when driving trough tunnels, not sure why i picked that one.
⋆ read and annotated with boyana the bare facts of rituals (johnathan z. smith), talked about the interesting parts of the text.
⋆ rituals as exercises in the strategy of choice, grace and nature, divine and human
⋆ ancient men making rituals of bear hunts, creating false divine realities so far from the human truth. ritual as a perfect hunt where all variables are controlled. the hunter knows that this is not reality but performing the ritual makes the hunt's full significance to be perceived, a significance which the rules express but are powerless to effectuate.
