The Universal Constant of Western Civilization

Post by Pstotto » Tue Aug 03, 2021 6:50 pm

The Unbeatable Universal Constant of Western Civilization

The beginning of the Western Enlightenment began with the re-discovery of perspective and its public disclosure by Alberti in 1435, where the matter at hand was the eureka moment of the creation of a measured verisimilitude of an objective reality that was able to be universally shared as an external and accurate model of the perceived external world.

This had profound transcendental implications not only for the mind of the individual able to rationalize an objective sense mediation and recreation of a now perceived external transcendental order to which all is subject, but also as proof of connection with a transcendental order both external and yet capable of transmission to the internal via light.
Here was an enlightenment based on external facts, where everything pertaining to a perceived external world could be subsumed-as greater meaning, symbolized as such in the structure of the perspective paintings of the Renaissance.
This development offered great peace in the absolution of mankind now in receipt of the proven knowledge of an order greater than humanity and his quotidian concerns and moreover the personal absolution of I am here and you are there and we both are subject to the same law.
Via scientific method, the development of perspective also absolved man of the philosophical dilemma of the centrality of his personal experience of the perceived external world by placing him as a partial observer of an objective reality that could be measured and shared as such, thus offering a collective way to proceed with caution and develop testable theories of knowledge.

The result of this was the flourishing of the Renaissance and the emancipation of the Western Enlightenment and the further development of rational thought.

It also led to a democratization of knowledge that there was proof of something greater to which all individuals were subject, resulting in new political freedoms from autocratic rule, encapsulated in the end of papal infallibility.

If we go back to Alberti, the principle geometric fact of the Eureka moment is 2D shape represents 3D form in perspective.

This fact remains undisputed and forms the universal concept of imaging and verisimilitude of the perceived external world, as it is a universal constant.

It is the ultimate fact of the pictorial condition and that is why is it the first lesson in the life drawing class.

The high value on this fact is placed on it because it also proves metaphysics for sure.

An image proves intellectual concept and 2D shape represents 3D form is the principle metaphysical fact.

As such, the perspective drawing proves metaphysical contemplation for sure and that is why Renaissance art has been so highly prized.

It also proves humble observance more than anything else, as an ego-less (in effect) activity.

It is proven in fact and as such The Renaissance thumped the rest of the world for having religious technology-as an image theory that prove ego-less-ness and humble observance of a transcendent monotheistic God, in the form of external proof of metaphysical contemplation.

That yardstick remains the universal constant and other cultures has never come near to that and that is why the West is actively the most ego-less culture in world history and can develop such spiritual altruism to the level of the Highway Code and the British driving test for peace of mind and freedom of movement in humble observation and discipline of mind unrivalled worldwide.

No other culture can dispute it because the geometry of perspective is the universal metaphysical constant.

That constitutes Christian virtue and Protestant ethos in its democratization of knowledge were all men were equal under God and that equality is enshrined in the Highway Code as secular English activity born of The Western Enlightenment.

That is Western Civilization and there is no better model of civilization than that because it is based on knowledge and as such built on rock that cannot be shaken i.e. the universal constant of perspective geometry.

There is no greater cultural paradigm so what does elsewhere have to offer this island, with respect and why values from elsewhere should be given priority here.

Highway Code changed according to what, as an advance of peace of mind intellectually?

What metaphysical argument?

The notion of renouncing worldly values sounds a bit suspect if that were a suggestion from elsewhere as to a modification of the highway code.

Everyone else but the English, which bit?

See the English can always jibe an opponent of War for having such a quaint romantic notion of it and proven via football again as a play of metaphysics according to employing the same rationale of geometry and that's why we became masters of war and we can also laugh at it with football not least to bask in the eternal glory of metaphysical certainty baggsied as ours and we'll always be hated for it, if you could grow world envy...

Good. I hope you do i.e. a comprehension of a global acceptance of universal realism exemplified in the CGI reconstruction on youtube (The Flight Channel) of air disasters.

One's recognition of the external world is spiritual absolution in the form of the ordinary acceptance that one is a partial observer of an objective world and a collective societal reassurance born of the universal agreement of geometry, world aviation rules for example.

Interesting with regard to visual perspective and the ego. Eastern art often eschews perspective because of its egocentric characteristics. A picture made using perspective can only be viewed from the position of the artist. Obviously that view is then shared by the viewer when looking at the art work but non the less the viewer is still put into the position of the artist. This could be considered egocentric and perhaps selfish because other views are excluded. In Indian and Chinese art where multiple viewpoints are included in the same picture and western perspective is omitted the art work could be seen as a more ‘shared’ view and less egocentric. The cubists came to a similar, if more abstracted, type of multiple viewpoint idea.

In other words, a scam and what base for any value of anything at all.

There's no proof of image per se or metaphysical contemplation

Some folk they accuse others of their own faults to hide their own and that's those that can't draw in perspective.

The perspective view is the opposite of egocentric in the accepting of partial experience that honours reality in observation far beyond the contradictory because that line of pictorial enquiry remains unresolved and regarding a phenomenon that can only be mysterious forever more for being essentially 'Eternal Figuration' as an intrinsic pictorial capacity of the visual field.

'More abstracted multiple viewpoints idea' is subsumed by The Universal Constant of Perspective Geometry.

There can be no escape.

Keep away from Picadilly because Art for London and the R.A. have put art works where zebra crossings were around Piccadilly Circus and put banners up claiming to be art i.e. you would stand and look up and contemplate them as art in traffic??????

There is no mention of the rationale or the performative function of putting an artwork for visual contemplation on a road or above a road.

With Blackpool Illuminations the function is laid out safely where the sign is clear as to what it is but with an art work the opposite is the case often and so with the art work of Vanessa Jackson who has done the road 'art.' who it is said of, that she's makes paintings which question the flatness of Modernism.

Well then??????

Perhaps it's part of a mixed reality Bugs Bunny movie for the digital included and for those not included there's the cartoon image on the pavement next to it of the artist steamrollered in the act of questioning the flatness of Modernism while using a busy road for a canvas.

The ant-West nihilism as war against us, is promoted here against our own people enshrined as a new thing.... Correctness.

Anti-human sex, Anti-materialist, anti-object, anti-perspective, anti-form and space is a good call for life on Earth??????????????

It doesn't have any logical basis for a healthy society and yet in now forms the principle cultural and political remit of our times against geometry.

How mad is that?

Those youtube videos of the change of population and societies over millennia show a different idea of geography and demographics and England is very small and there's a huge lump of land nearby and another not that far away.

Looking at the UK during the reign of Queen Elizabeth 2nd that social and political map has fluctuated, however form and space doesn't and neither has red amber and green on traffic lights during that time.

Nevertheless the UK is a Nuclear world superpower, the equivalent of Burnley in the Premier League, so not to be bossed by anyone.

One gets to thinking then that what is going on, is what is the plan and it is succeeding and that plan is global and it's a cultural game where I will mess up your country and your society in every way possible to deny any ideological or demographic upper hand so cultural and ideological stalemate for all, exemplified on film in The Italian Job and the scene where Caine is allowed to pass on his journey.

Nevertheless the key to Western metaphysics is the geometry of perspective as the unbeatable universal constant as it's external humility consensus as a comprehending adult populace of being a partial viewer of an objective reality.

Those societies elsewhere asking us to give up our silver had better first entirely rid themselves of everything pertaining to the developed world.

You first.

How can you have something and nothing when there is no such thing?

Surely something must have its opposite for being what it is?

Answer: The linguistic philosophy of the damned, that's the opposite of something.

And yet something and nothing exists in English language to account for phenomena and it well known and all use it.

The basis of this is form and space and the proof of that is perspective geometry and this proves there and not there for example "There's nothing in my inbox today' or "I looked in the tin and there's was nothing in it' as answer to the question "Are the keys in the tin."

That is also peace of mind to able to do that and form and space is that peace of mind and seeing distance brings peace of mind for that and that's why holidays to the Lakes etc. are popular.

That positive value is there.
