Critical Synoptics

It is often useful to see the activity of conceptual analysis as a literary activity. The subject matter of analytic philosophy--which itself is a linguistic analysis--consists of philosophical concepts, but the activity and arguably the method are very often literary.

"The Quantum Theory of Conscious Cities" by Vitasta Raina

"Within a city's quantum mind, the information shared between and created by the interaction of different city layers and their components creates dynamic areas of social cognition, but it also creates patches of urban wilderness, fringe areas without stimulation. These dark jungles of a city's mind are the domain of the elusive city organism.... [D]espite an accurate knowledge of these systems of self-projection, there is a void between the animate and the inanimate nature, a gap in the system between the self-animal and core-entity, and this leads to the creation of a 'boundless void' within ourselves because we are often unable to pinpoint the exact area of discomfiture between ourselves and our true selves, unable to determine even the brims of our conscious and subconscious streams of thoughts, emotions and associations. Since Supranatural systems exist beyond our control, they occupy a space outside of our self spaces. diagram below reflects the self-entity model with different spaces occupied by different systems within the space of our psyche."
