The Spindle of Reality
An artistic-philosophical work by Robin Jeske, in two language forms: English at spindle-of-reality.org, German at spindel-der-wirklichkeit.org.
The work describes reality as continuous change between opposites, held in the formula z = a + bi: a is the degree of realization, b the degree of rigidity of the transformative potential. Four poles span the field — Chaos, Beauty, Emptiness, Whole — and between them lies Between-Being, where everything alive moves.
The Boundary of Infinity (Emptiness ↔ the Whole) runs along a = b – the main diagonal from (0,0) to (1,1). The Boundary of Eternity (Chaos ↔ Beauty) runs along a + b = 1 – the anti-diagonal from (0,1) to (1,0). The a-axis (realization) and b-axis (rigidity) form their own right-angled cross – they run neither along these boundaries nor perpendicular to them, but cross them at a 45-degree slant: whoever measures with a and b measures obliquely to what bounds them.
