Very interesting conversations via podcast on Steve Ersinghaus’ blog regarding perspective and perception and past and present.
Can’t remember (and of course, can’t find now) where I’ve run up against the principles just recently, whether in reading or in the classroom setting, but both the notion of something being what it is precisely because of what it was (memory attachment of sorts) which of course is invisible to the present holder of the experience; and the notion of seeing something from just one angle (shades of Flatland) so as to be blind again from the vision of a different viewpoint are fascinating concepts.
Good stuff.
