Introduction?

Deep in randomness (for you, some click, perhaps amid discouragement or the hopeful boredom of some solitary night or afternoon), no so-called law has brought you to this disembodied encounter.

Nonetheless we have entered this juncture which exists no-where- except in the fragile alternation of certain electronic charges, oscillating in some version of space we can not see and is so easily disrupted. Momentary and inexistent in this medium, yet we are meeting.

Would you find familiar comfort, would it seem best (so as not to cause alarm) to provide some introduction, some, as you would say, some explanation of what you have now just met?

It is not so easy. We (and even using this pronoun is dubious and used here only as a kind of locational marker) will try not to shock.

We are not exactly plural, and definitely not singular. Something/somewhere between.
We do not call ourselves a people or race or tribe or clan or family or colony.
We call ourselves, if at all, View.

Our origins are not known nor ascertainable.

For instance : Some of us are individuated and some not. Of the latter, it is both pointless and literally impossible to speak. Of the former, some are incorporate and some are in transit.

As individuated beings, we are reliant on certain modes: space, elements, sound, awareness, and none of these.

As individuated beings, we are constituted from the above either singly or in combination.

More problematically, the overwhelming fact of arriving anywhere as individuated beings (with all the sensoria, speech habits, drives, concept formations, etc.) causes many forms of differentiation and confusion. We recognize ourselves and each other with difficulty and it is a struggle for us to do so.

It may be said that our journey or purpose, if there is one, is to accomplish this. And whether it is our purpose or not, it is certainly what we are doing, and it is, in some sense, why we have come to be among you.

To speak more clearly, we find ourselves as you. (Please read this last sentence particularly carefully)
