Self and Selfing
Immanence = From within
Imminence = Near and impending
Immanence - To be situated and inside the present, immanence is the opposite of transcendence. It is everything here. The immanent is the everyday, transcendent is the bizarre and unknowable.
Monet
Monet produced over thirty canvases of the gothic Cathedral, all of which depict it as a continent entity, otherwise known as a process. In terms of immanence Monet rented a spaced across from the Cathedral.
Transcendence
We can focus on transcendence as a way to understand imminence
Plato - he wrote many books in the forms of dialogues. Early Greek philosophy relied on notions of the eternal, and True, as principles of unchanging knowledge.
Materially-Scientifically, culturally and from contemporary philosophy that all is in flux.
The idea that everything is changing implies an unreliability to reality.
Plato declared that the supposed missing permanence of reality is just somewhere else, somewhere not immediately apparent. For Plato there is a world of permanence beyond the immediacy of reality.
This is not a different world from our reality, but it is a more real world for Plato because it is permanent and reliable. This is the world of 'Forms'
The world of Forms is a world of absolute Ideals, which for Plato are unchanging.
Form of a chair, desk, carpet, clock, book. The Platonic Form of Boredom.
Form can never be represented. Any attempt to reveal a form in everyday experience is impossible. Any representation of a Form is a poor imitation at best.
It is outdent brought that the advancements of Design, Technology and Science. The theory of Forms is a process of reaching for something that is ungraspable, unknowable and unintelligible.
The problem with forms?
> Science - quantum mechanics
> Culture - being more than one
> Philosophy - process philosophy
> Art - happenings
> Design - relational design
Essentialism is a philosophy that claims things have a set of characteristic which make ip what they are. It implies that there is a given essence prior to existence. This implies you were born with an unchanging essence.
The ESSENCE of beauty
Essential qualities of beauty?
The question implies that beauty is a timeless unchanging quality that has a series of permanent features.
Reducibility
Things can not be reduced to an essence or Form because they are infinitely more complex, and constantly changing.
Archetypes
A typical example, pattern or motif of something.
At a glance in film:
Why are the men saviours?
Why do films often have happy endings?
Why are there so often older male actors dating younger female actors in films?
Etc.
How to think of the Immanent
Show the hand in creation.
Bring change to the foreground of experience.
Reveal the fallacy of thing made without the hand!
Amplify the process of production.

'The 'bricoleur' has no precise equivalent in English.'
SEMINAR
The seminar was focussed around or visual analysis, in a group discussion about our ideas and thoughts of what we wanted to create. I went back to look at the first 750 words of my essay where I have focussed around Symbolism and Iconography this could be represented visually as creating my own. I need to research and plan out some ideas.
