World of Vibes
Everything is a light shining through a prism of universal being.
All objects continually self-separate into multiplicity and unity simultaneously, such that every story is both advancing one way, and being pulled into resolution from its very outset.
Stories aren’t just linear, but rhizomatic like roots: a tree of happenings sprouted through time.
Humor and drama are two novel ways to tell a story with a sense of ironic detachment: the global style for commentary on the absurdity of life as an individual human self.
.∀Story∋(H ^ D).
"for every story, humor and drama are its elements"
(H) Humor
(D) Drama
Within a storyline, D creates emotional tension, H creates release.
Because of their interplay, serious things tend to spontaneously become funny, and funny things, serious: To explain this would require some minimal explanation of value and/or virtue.
Certain ways of expression— dramatizations— are meaningless things in meaningful tones, i.e., vibes.
Vibes are predicated on virtues which are characterizations of values.
(K) Vibes
(SV) Subliminal values
(V) Virtue
.∃xy (K(xy, SV) → Story(xy), V).
x ≡ individual, y ≡ relation
"for some entities x and y, if the vibes are such that x and y lead to subliminal values, then the story of x and y leads to virtue"
Vibes are both a constructive and destructive force. They have a grip on our feelings, and can make or break any moment of any story, crucial when it comes to solving social (interpersonal) or personal issues.
People can behave as waves or whirlpools in eachothers lives: all it takes is a single splash to cause a disaster.
Everything is a ripple in the celestial wave, eternally oscillating between inner and outer ; subjective and objective; humor and drama; from which we must derive meaning and common virtues out of normally unspoken values.
The way to align personal subjective values to collective virtues involves open discussion of our deepest insights: a linguistic (thus, social) analysis of the fundamental concepts of reality: an exploration of the world of vibes.
