Philosophy and Identity

Mind you, the word “identity” in this context has nothing to do with usual usage. I’m going back to 15 years old and all my mumblings to myself about a is not equal to a, not a, assignment of relevance being definition by exclusion (and appearing to actually state some things about known cultures)…simple stuff. My version of “photographic memory” is actually a memory for patterns. I do have damage to my visual cortext according to tests, and that’s where the seizures come from. It’s just that…I guess I hadn’t thought that I’d ever connect a lot of the ends.
This is probably the most difficult part of it. I think. I’ve written about a page worth (by hand; probably about 150-200 words and still somewhat outline in nature) in three hours. Mind you, I’ve just gotten done with about 30 pages that came from one page of notes, and I didn’t finish the working-out of my “outline”. Two-dimensional modelling of three-dimensional object; interesting.
