When the nature is mercilessly indifferent, then a human species are losing something from it’s nature indeed when they loose the participatory. “Obscure matters” kick-started from kind of old questions that keep come around. In other words especially what conserns bottlenecks of the relations between the person and community. Relatively the piece is located in a kind of obscure only because of one have to sharper attention. To continue a bit more in poetical tune… being aware, that the channel what we use to be in touch with community, is still bottomless... that’s why ”we cover their eyes with shellack to make cirules shaped like the number eight… till it’s claire what direction one should take to find food”.
