“ Food doesn’t target at hunger but it targets at
culture - A technologically and artistically created culture “ – M K .
Harikumar.
To be stagnant, to be
static is something what is against nature. Some people take it their privilege
to be silent in the realm of
imaginations and romantic aspirations. We can make a quest for historic facts,
can take efforts to interpret it , but if we try to become a historic fact, it
pushes you into a realm of a cold stillness. We can stay by history but if we
hesitate to look beyond it prevents us from looking beyond. It prevent us from
introspecting what we really are.
Man is not flesh
alone. This flesh contains a lively creature brimming with life thoughts and
these intellectual beings grow forward. They grow into the spikes of time.
Whenever you go into the past, that too is forwarded into time zone. When we identify ourselves, then there is no more growth.
We can never explain
our existence completely. The growth of the future and the present moments all
are not rational. They do not have
permanent forms. Their fate is to
change. Even logical aspects turns to be
illogical , the rational become irrational. So it becomes extremely
difficult to completely identify our existence.
If we can completely
, predict ourselves , we can only be that particular entity. At that spot our
search ends. That is the end of all quests all growth. So we should search for what we really are
till the last drop of breath embarks in us.
If I tell it on the other side, the rejection of whatever we are gets
transformed into am eternal search. This is the fresher zone we are entering
into. This is what is called rejection –the most important theme in modernism.
Rejection is always
there. This pull of energy in the opposite direction is actually the positive
energy. If this energy isn’t present, an object can’t even visualize another
object. We are able to realize the
contradictions because of this theory of rejection.
Any object tries to
free from the shell of identity and that is its internal karma or the law of
action for eg. A prayer in itself tries to reject itself or else existence
tries to refute itself. This is an internal situation. Even if we imprison our existence, the
situation remains till the moment when prayer and existence is reality, they do
not have co-rodination with the external world.
However big or small they are they have a fundamental behavior. They
have themselves fixed to the corepoint – Prayer and existence are the fundamental
conditions. These conditions blocks the growth. Prayer and existence are
‘nature’. If they do not grow, they become stagnant both biologically and
thematically. Then we visualize before us a fundamental frozen state ‘A
Samadhi’ Ideas, themes and experiences
are separated and then imprisoned. Its against this rejection occurs. This
doesn’t mix up with nature. Instead this itself is a part of nature and it can
reject itself and it continues. Prayer us becomes a sign of tradition and a
symbol of nature. On the plain of ideas
and philosophy, prayer and existence rejects to be itself. It struggles to enter into the flow of nature. Man has to
support it. It is essential for rejection and rebirth.
Each and every object
enters into a thematic world after the process of self rejection. Each and
every object can be visualized as a micro link on a huge chain. But these links
basically reject themselves. The
question why each objection is presented in a particular place is a fundamental
argument. So man frees everything from it. This freedom of getting rejected is
the basic idea which brims in technology art and all permanent thoughts. We try
to bud objects in a new order. Anything
like paintings, images which when removed from its original position and placed
in a new environment , starts flowing with the new stream. This is the pattern of post modernism.
Self rejection is
endless creativity. It even exists in human nature.
That’s how a being
rejects his childhood, youth hood and finally strictes into his old age.

A
new entity through rejection
Life has got only
a single philosophy – The flow of
getting into a new stream through rejection.
Nothing remains as ever. Everything
is subjective to change. Any object desires to be transformed into a new
vigour. Whatever aspect we determine to be ‘still’ that aspect gets alienated
from the rest and it remains static.
That means rejection and creation are the two different sicks of the
same coin – post modernism. Actually an object or a theme stops representing
itself and gets projected into the spikes of time or momentum of the cosmos or
it gets viewed from various angles. For instance,
we can see this in the creative work of a small brochure. No colours in a brochure are predetermined .
It is according to the taste of the designer at that particular moment.
Whatever is required gets in automatically. The cut outs or collagues or colour
strokes are arranged according to different symbols and representations. A Kathakali head , musical instruments and even sceneries merging with the theme may be beyond question.
Those images aren’t direct
representations but indifferent expressions. Finally what the brochure will be
even beyond the theme or idea to be given. Thus the theme of the brochure
rejects itself and creates something entirely new. If there is no rejection
then there is no creation. In post
modernism there is nothing like permanent identity. If you have something like that it attains a
status of an immovable corpse. Thoughts
should be innovative. Identity imprisons
man. Therefore mobility of objects
through the waves of ideas gets static. To intersect is the characteristic of
modern philosophy. Whatever symbols we find in the web is meant for rejection
and creativity of modern mankind. In any object there be an internalized and
externalized identity. The instance of bullock head symbolizes a forest. But if
its just a painted skeletal frame work of it kept in a restaurant or art
gallery, its not a forest it represent but points towards culture. Thus the OX head deviates from its original
idea and exists as a new entity or image. In public it usually is an image for
memory. It is reborn as an image for broken relationships. Any object has
liberation for itself. It has in itself an innate desire to liberate. In its
mundane existence , first of all is not melted into a performance. Its exists
in many forms. Secondly, it penetrates through human thoughts ;
traditional frames, through various situations and changes into aspects of
various objects and themes. We can quote
the example of landscape
photograph. The silvery sky, the trees
and the plains blends to form the picture. But if the silvery sky – a split
opening alone is taken for graphic designing, it becomes emphatic on that
aspect and further if the graphics attains the adaptable characteristics then
only the process of rejection and creativity will take place.
Objects or ideas may
be a part of some scientific truth. Yet
it may also be the raw materials for many other creations.
That emphasizes on the fact that there is no definite meaning or culture
for anything. If we reset them it becomes a reality. We can reset our own
reality. Any object becomes a symbol. This activity is rejection and creation.
Self rejection and makings moves parallel to all ancient principle, this topples the concept of
all art forms. I am reminded of the
street singe who I met a few days ago. That eve I was travelling from
Tripunithura to Muvattupuzha. I saw a group of blind women. They were street singers. They were singing
an old song of Smt.Janaki. ( the very famour play back singer) which had the
meaning “ When you laugh the world
laughs with you, but when you cry, you cry alone “ When I heard the song I
comprehended it as an example for my topic . Neither the tune nor the song had
anything to do with the ancient singer. None of the singers needed the
situation for which the song was created, the background etc. The singers rejected the ancient situations
and created a new song according to their mood. Here what has happened is
nothing but the self rejection of the old song the creation of the new singers.
Numerous
bits
Today
a wholesome appreciation, thematic presentation or interpretation is
inapplicable. Actually the bits are gaining prominence . These bits acts like
cinematic experiences. Even though contradictory it is taken as a unified
whole. The perspective towards Tov
experiences can be taken as an example.
No vision becomes isolated nor gains importance. One after the other
these visions gain prominence. May be the FV Shows we do watch is
incomplete yet. We switch on to other
programmes or other channels. But we take all these as connected experiences or
else the various programmes become a part of a greater experience. With these broken bits we gain a wider
experience. This is nothing by ‘virtual reality’
The
new cultural and traditional life hints at the fact that wholesome thematic
aspects will never be adapt for renounciation and creativity. Each and every
moment we find a kind of novelty in each and every object or else it seems to
be do. As we can find statues and carvings already which exists within the
craggy rocks, there is a tendency for every entity to reject itself and acquire
a new form. Therefore it is unreal to
consider an object based on its momentary elements and covering it by the misty
viel of the wider and broader thematic concept. When we travel through the bits
of each second there is possibility to
reject itself and merge itself into a innovative existence.
We
do not get enough time to watch along movie or stage performance. Longer
interpretations are very against our existence. If we can easily gain it by
bits longer interpretations do become a burden.
So
it becomes difficult for a person to be the prisoner in the field of art or
culture. Man realize that he is a cultural creature traversing through art
forms, cultural activities, commercial objects and technically advanced musical
instruments. But he need not focus himself to remain a creature woven into a
definite pattern because he has the tendency to reject himself.
Travelling
through the newly created commodities he experiment with his own existence.
Courage,
creativity, consciousness– Everything is being experimented by the human being.
Thus from the cosmic experience of the theme, he gets split himself into bit of
simple traditional experiences evolving into a newer forms and gets self
regenerated. There’s no identity or innate romanticism in it – Both are against
the totally free flow of the cosmic energy.
Even in the modern digital technology we have this concept of rejection
and renovation. Let us take the concept of ‘virtual reality’ Internet webpages
are many in one. These pages become a
reality through links. But it doesn’t
have series, history, specificity of objects or humans. It keeps on changing according to how we use
it. It travels from the page of the
person who select it according to his desire. It is not necessary that one may return to the
page once stared. Each and every paths are opened according to the inquisitive
nature of the minutes.
The
motion of fishes is an identical phenomenon to explain this. Fishes do not have
pathways for themselves. All the paths are created in a momentary instinct. Right at that minute
they disappear. This itself is post modernism.
It is nothing but traversing through each time molecules and that to
never to return. Self rejection is nothing but rowing with memories and getting
into a shell of self oblivion. Even in
recreation we can see that memory and forget fullness are two sides of the same
aspect. No cyber pages can accept the motherhood of history. Those like the multiple forms hidden within an object create virtual
realities. Each single page is multiple pages. But doesn’t link in ideas,
themes of forms. Similarly in post modernism
there are chances for rejection and creation. Even in an existence of
contradictions we select according to our taste. Nothing is linked in a series , continuously
or thematic resemblance “ Whatever we
are we try to reject it and become a newer identity.
This
is a hidden message and it doesn’t hint at anybody but it is purely symbolic (
or conceptual).
