UNTITLED
AT THE HEART OF EVERY DOMAIN—BE IT ART, SCIENCE, PHILOSOPHY, OR OTHERS—LIES SOMETHING INEFFABLE, A SINGULAR ESSENCE THAT EACH DISCIPLINE ATTEMPTS TO UNDERSTAND IN ITS OWN WAY. WHILE THE EXACT NATURE OF THIS CORE REMAINS UNKNOWN, I BELIEVE IT REPRESENTS A HOLISTIC TRUTH THAT CONNECTS ALL THINGS. THE CHALLENGE, HOWEVER, LIES IN THE SYNTHESIS OF THESE PERSPECTIVES.
EACH DOMAIN PROVIDES A UNIQUE LENS THROUGH WHICH TO VIEW THIS CENTRAL MYSTERY, BUT THEIR INHERENT DIFFERENCES MAKE INTEGRATION DIFFICULT. THE QUESTION IS NOT ONLY WHAT THIS SINGULAR ESSENCE IS BUT HOW TO BRING THESE VARYING INSIGHTS TOGETHER WITHOUT LOSING THE RICHNESS OF THEIR INDIVIDUAL CONTRIBUTIONS.
MY APPROACH TO THIS INVESTIGATION IS SUBJECTIVE. IT IS NOT AN ATTEMPT TO FORCE AN OBJECTIVE ANSWER BUT TO NAVIGATE THE DEPTH OF THE QUESTION FROM WITHIN, EXPLORING HOW THESE PERSPECTIVES RESONATE AND INTERACT ON A PERSONAL LEVEL. THIS SUBJECTIVE LENS ALLOWS FOR FLEXIBILITY AND INTUITION IN A PROCESS THAT IS BOTH INHERENTLY COMPLEX AND PROFOUNDLY OPEN-ENDED.
CODE-SWITCH® IS MY TOOL FOR THIS JOURNEY, A MEANS OF ENGAGING WITH THESE DOMAINS AND THEIR INTERSECTIONS TO MOVE TOWARD A SYNTHESIS—NOT TO CONCLUDE BUT TO CONTINUE THE SEARCH.
THE GUIDING QUESTION FOR THIS PROJECT THEN BECOMES: HOW CAN THE DISTINCT PERSPECTIVES OF VARIOUS DOMAINS BE SYNTHESISED TO INVESTIGATE THE INEFFABLE CORE OF EXISTENCE, WHILE HONOURING THE UNIQUENESS OF EACH VIEW?
