Cultural Recursion
We are witnessing the perpetuation of systems of rule and information transmission in which our own biological, psychological and existential biases lead us to mistakenly identify ourselves as the primary components (and purposes) of this process.
Cultural Propagation
Cultural self-replication occurs by way of dynamic, non-linear algorithms; shapeshifting and ambiguous under analysis…
Finite cross-section of infinite systems; complex iterations in a conceptual vocabulary…
Degrees of Complexity
Defining measures of complexity itself proves to be complex…
Tattoos are personal inscriptions and records of presence or potential no less than every other thing we experience and express…
Leonardo’s Kickflip
It is only a skateboard with a stenciled Last Supper and like this reference is only pretending to be something indirectly other than what it simply is…
The Blame Game: Guns and Culture
The conditions which exist within a culture which might allow, indicate or in some sense cultivate the psychological and behavioural possibility of and preponderance to mass shootings is complex and not attributable to any single cause…

I do not think we should be at all surprised by the revelation that cultural processes and psychological processes, that depth and complexity on both ends of this interdependent spectrum are effectively two ends of the same waveform.
Ouroboros-like Logic
It is particularly apparent in art and design that cultural evolution and its associated historical development and metamorphosis consists of a fundamentally incomplete logical system of complex, open and creative self-reference.
Purpose of Culture
Should we be so surprised to discover that the ways in which culture functions and processes information are also, and fundamentally, the functions and essential reasons, rationale or purposes of that culture ? #recursion

That purpose and identifiable essential reason is the proliferation of their own continued existence. Whether or not it should be considered as though seen through some conspiratorial filter […]
