The underwater view is interesting. Water as a filter, a fluid filter. To see through water, the seeing shaped by conditions of the water, but perhaps something can be seen, even just murkiness.
A fluid murkiness? Because of a watery host? Solid murkiness? How tight is the bond between the murkiness and the water?
To use murkiness as a medium could be like sculpting shadows, sculpting with shadows?
And the blankness of a stare --that could be extraordinary, a pristine nature of a state maintained for how long? Undamaged state and undamaged --each framed by blankness, state, page --a partnership that sustains.
To be marked by blankness.
Is there assumption that pages should not remain blank? Is the blankness of pages assumed to be a temporary state? Is blankness necessarily an invitation for fill? How could blankness itself be valued if it should be? To what depth of which surface does the blankness extend? Were the pages magnified, would presences emerge? Would the pages be blanks on every scale?
I think I would like to study blankness further
--if there's been presence, does/can erasure return a page to blankness --or can/does evidence of presence remain (in some form on some scale)?
Learning another language can be the most frustrating thing to do. I have found that when sitting in Spanish class, we are reading an article about a small town that I have never heard of in Spain, in a historical context that I don't really understand anyways...and it's in a different language.
