Venturing to understand highly-individuated persons (“extraordinary minds,” leading minds) advances conceptual prospecting, reflective depths, and large-scale narrative landscapes by deriving a preferred, specific humanity for the sake of better comprehending what may be good* for progressive scaling, i.e., for bettering humanity. The bettering isn’t for individuals to capture—no philosopher kings can be adequate—but one can contribute to the implicit Project of Humanity which the university (as form of life) aims to advance. Accordingly, I want to be alive with leading works for the sake of constellating an interdomainity of their voices, their specific specialness of species specialties, a specie-ality of protean thinking. Odd as that may seem, such aspiration has always been implicit, at leaast, in con- ceptions of aspiration called “Philosophy,” especially as want of “ontology” in thinking. I disavow classical senses of aspiration. The apparent “Question of Being” just is the questing of Our evolving, which includes aspiring to understand the Quest as fruitfully as possible. Though any notion of specieal interdomainity is always a partial point of possible conception, the venture—aspiring for comprehensive comprehension of Our evolving (altogether, the Quest)—may usefully trope isomorphic interests of highly scaling realistic progressive designs. So, in the near distance, simply gardening ideas (which are conceptions, thus “simply” conceptual gardening—complex ventures, of course) may be aptly troped as a philological love story via textual intimacy. It’s to be generative, creative, maybe even intimating prospects which can be originary through its narrativity. It begins in highly free associability (a Flow of It All) whose capability for modal- izing (modal abstraction from phenomenal gardening) evinces interplays of modes, then evincing intermodalities (which are relatively meta-modal), to pro- spect newly domainal conceptions, contributing to interdomainal prospecting, then novel (experimental) conceptuality, which may be highly promising, not merely exotic to others (let alone idiosyncratic). That realistic creativity would be, to my mind, a scientifically well-informed crafting, a scientific artistry drawn into elevations of wonder and awe, a humbly conceptual highlanding (“conscientious cohering”), a vista of holistic horizoning, a pretense of comprehensive comprehension which tropes engagement in evolv- ing conceivability. |
