It might be interesting to take something such as linguistics and apply
it to perception? Or is that what others are doing? But then anyone
could mistake it and criticize it, and Derrida could deconstruct it, and
any skeptic (many philosophers are great skeptics) could show that the
foundation isn't true or the argument isn't anything other than a
circular argument which claims something because it claims something. It
seems, then, that there are no answers. "Prove it!"will destroy any text
if enough thoughtful people oppose it. So I will now invent Porno
Theory. PT is correct because I fuckin say it is. If it is not capable
of being proven or if it is only based on something I like, it is still
valid PT. Porno Theory makes no attempt to prove anything and can take
any position I want to believe. Porno Theory is copyrighted by me
Jaakko Hucklebee, I will not allow anyone else to use the term without
my permission (of course it is easy to get my permission). Porno Theory
is more valid than any other conceptual program because it does not
present itself as a fact and does not pretend to pretend not be
bullshit. It is more honest and more believable than presenting
something as a fact when indeed it is not a fact and could never be
proven. Nor does it say classics are better because they are better, or
some such bullshit criticism, without the obvious disclaimer that such
is only my fuckin opinion.
The Porno Theory of space is that space is a relationship (remember I
don't have to fuckin prove this). The space given by various synonyms in
say NASA's list http://gopher.sti.nasa.gov/thesaurus/S/word4417.html
(you don't have permission to use this thesaurus) is considered by Porno
Theory to be a list of profound power and beauty, as is Cubistic space
and variable space. If this post gets by without too many questions, I
may continue with this concept of variable space as per Porno Theory.
