Week Three: Stewart’s Atmospheric Attunements

On how (almost uncomfortably) inevitable and detailed it is:

And some stray, written thoughts:

  • “A geography of what happens” – how everyday life emerges: rhythms, agency, illogicality
  • Pockets – look for space to open, look for that pregnant pause and what it will / might mean
  • Worlding – it feels like non-verbal, almost collective unconscious type stuff, that we all pick up on as a sign or an excuse to create what we’re going to be and how we’re going to live in our own atmosphere
  • Is it possible to pick up on this minutiae if you don’t know the place? Or can you guess the subject from its shadow in spite of never having seen it?
    • Is there something more to it? Will you notice things – that are or aren’t there – simply because of the lens you look through?
  • “Atmospheric life”  and attunement. Is it deliberate? Sort of, but not really. More instinctual
  • It all seems depressingly inevitable…
  • …Attunements lead naturally to other specific attunements – you notice things others wouldn’t because you’re in that space, on that path
