  • Improvement

    Couple of days back I wrote about HABIT EXTENSION.

    What constitutes a habit?

    Movements and whatever is between movements. I relish the pauses between movements but then here I am referring to movements more so.

    I want to liken Movement to Action. And interchangeably use these words. Though I understand that Action sounds seriouser and heavier than Movement. In other ways, political especially or cause-driven, Movement feels heavier than Action.

    Habitual Movement Extension. You are extending habitual movements when you say you are extending a habit.

    Habitual Action Extension… Hmm…

  • Before it evaporates!

    “We exist in shapes!”

    One could even write that “we exist in space”. Plural? “We exist in spaces.”

    What’s the difference?

  • Compliment

    “What an architectural pile!”

    That is a great compliment. Especially directed at some person, a great great compliment.

  • Some expressions

    Dynamic Architecture

    Stationary Architecture

    Perfect Decision

    Decisions are not abstractions. They are space-occupying things. Territorial.

  • Elevator Shoes

    Am I so out of tune with fashion!

    Horror!

    I just come across this headline: ELEVATOR SHOES FOR MEN.

    Please don’t tell me it’s a thing. 🥱

  • Boatiness

    What’s that?

    I do not want to offer a definition or a definitive answer. Why? Coz I’ve just discovered or, say, coined this expression. Let me offer some hints anyway.

    Observe your shoes. Notice how they are shaped.

    I find that an overwhelming majority of shoes- leather, canvas, sports- and even sandals worn by women exhibit ‘boatiness’. Notice?

  • Breathtakers

    Breathtaking and breathless. A related expression to breathless is ‘out of breath’. Am I getting this right?

    What is the difference between breathtaking and breathless?

    When you sprint, is it breathtaking and is it breathlessness inducing?

    When you scroll through your Instagram feed, is it breathtaking and breathlessness inducing?

    Breathtaking and breathlessness inducing, both can cause death?

  • Powerful Expression

    In Jim Manzi’s book I come across a powerful expression:

    Causal Density

    Don’t ask me. Just as there is a density of people, similarly there is a density of causes.

  • CX

    I am naïve in certain ways. Words and expressions in fashion often elude my awareness.

    It turns out that Customer Experience (Design) is shortened to CX. Like UX. Where else has ‘experience’ been turned into ‘X’?

    While the shortened form sounds and looks amazing, so many organizations offer the same lousy customer service experience, perhaps lousier than earlier.

    I have a solution in mind. I will write in detail about that.

  • Title of the 2nd Chapter

    In Luhmann’s Love as Passion, the 2nd chapter carries this title:

    Love as a Generalized Symbolic Medium of Communication

    In my life I never thought I would be reading the expression LOVE amidst such words. But then it is Mr Luhmann and he can make it sound dry like this and yet ever intriguing all the same.

    And then there are those who do their doctorates in sociology. Hello Mr Phd in Sociology, do you have Mr Luhmann’s felicity and mind to subject and address LOVE this way?

  • To gain a better feeling of space time…

    To gain a better feeling of space-time, try replacing the word ‘space’ with something 3-dimensional, a geometrically named unit that occupies space.

    Like, cylinder-time. Like, cuboid-time. Like, tunnel-time. Like, slice-time. Difficult?

    You may debate about the quality before you label any expression as an ‘aphorism’. I am happy calling some of my expressions as ‘aphoristic’. Done.
