What do you mean by "genetic" fractal?

I just took out the phrase "genetic fractal" from my mind's eye, and figured that the sentence still basically means the same thing. :shrug:

Hard to say if we're a quirk until we find out if there's more people out there. Maybe it's the hip thing, and all the cool planets are doing it.

It is not meaningless.

It does kind of mean the same thing without "genetic fractal"
But its less specfic.

By a "quirk in the genetic fractal of time" I am using fractals as an analogy for the chaotic/yet ordered course, life on our planet has taken.

All of life on earth that we know of has been rather primitive compared to us. We are the ones that mapped the stars years ago, and now we arepushing into space.

Comparing us to other life on earth (genetics) we are a quirk.
In time (the term fractal encompasses both time and space)

So this basically means we are a quirk in genetic history.

If you know about fractals and the rules that make them, then youd probably get this alot easier..
The rules that goern our wold seem to be kind of simialar to the rule that gvern fractals...

I cant explain any better.


I wasnt challenging anyones knowledge of fractals which is what you seem to feel I was doing. If you know about fractals then an you see the relationship I tried to build?

I believe it makes sense and is valid.
If you want to prove it doesnt, then please do so.

Damn dude cant you picture a fractal in your mind?

Now abstractly visualize the infinite little section of the fractal that is supposed to represent humanity.
In my poem that section is dfferent maybe more complex, its different from the rather redundant past genetic history on earth..

I wrte this shit when I was 18 on a bunch of acid.

Your calling this a completely meaningless word salad?

:rolleyes: :thumbup:

I guess thats why art is subjective.

To some people its simply a piece of trash.
To others they can really dig it.

Says alot about the receiver.

Art is SUBJECTIVE

At the least it says you cant place anything in place of abstract analogies.

Simialar to someone being stumped by the rorshack.

That doesn't necessarily mean anyone can assign any meaning to it and be correct. The artist had something specific in mind.

Also, what's so chaotic/fractal-like about time? Last I heard it only went in one direction and was quite orderly.

Yeah subjective means it means whatever it means to the person interpreting/preceiving the info.

He said my poem was something like a "pointless ramble"

Fuck that.

Im not debating the nature of time or space.

Im simply drawing a comparison between the chaotic genetic evolutionary backround of earth animals emphasizing the WIERD humans and  the organization found in the seemingly chaotic yet ordered fractals, in a poetic manner.

He cant handle that.
He had to pick a poem about my views apart.
