Sorting My Mental Mess

I was telling a friend today about the thinking I'm working on. Questions of mediums, minds, history, choice, action.


The whole thing needs to be about a theory of action. A philosophy of action. I just want to understand why we do what we do. Why we do it the way we do. How we choose the things we do.


It is a big mess. A big web of ideas that I don't understand the connections.


But it made a bit of sense when I was telling my friend about it.


It was making sense when I was talking about Zizek on retroactive freedom. It becomes a more and more appealing idea. Especially when I am able to explain it with Collingwood's definition of the imagination. I think that it helps.


Who knows.


But I'm sorting thoughts. Maybe I'll be able to write soonish.


Maybe this or that.
