Do visual artists consider ‘Space time’ when painting.
19 July 2013

Those powerful telescopes used by NASA to track light into the depths of space are pieces of technology that reveal mysteries that unlock information hidden for eons. Information only available to a mind-set labelled ‘occult’ or some other removed membership hidden from public viewing.
Obviously a lot of what Hubble has recorded and what gets discovered is held from public ears. Never the less, it is all there available and with a few accurate pointers it is possible to unveil some pertinent information about what is going on ‘out there’ so to speak.
Firstly what strikes me the most are the colours of gases that adorn our galaxy. The Orion’s belt where stars and planets are born is an array of heavenly splendour.
Going beyond this, with the aid of x-ray vision, a vast space of matter is seen. Uncountable galaxies. And beyond this, to what scientists call the beginning of time where the first stars are formed. Note that when you look into such a telescope what is seen as the beginning is seen in the present instant. This poses a question about ‘time’. How can what we call the past be seen in the present?. This means that the ‘past’ happens in the present. It is such a mind bender that few people consider it. But, there it is. You can see the beginning of time in the present. It looks as if light is moving toward us. Does it really?
The scientists say that matter is seen in space because of light hitting its surface. In the same way as Venus is visible in our night sky because of the reflection of the sun off the clouds that surround her. And yet, matter itself made up of energy, is self-illumined. So there is reflection happening and self-illumination happening both in the same instant. This means that neither the coming nor the going of light is more or less necessary for an object to be viewed. Worth considering if you are a visual artist. What and how do you see objects in space?
With all this light equally dispersed, the whole universe is illumined with energy. An energy which actions everything. That one action of an asteroid catapulting around inside the rings of Saturn has its course determined by the very same no thing that is actioning your eye as it receives a light signal on your screen as you read this. One only has to ponder the macrocosm to see how the microcosm is also the macrocosm. From this I cannot say that everything is ‘interconnected’ as interconnectedness implies something else. I am saying that Macro and micro are one and the same. The only difference between them being one of optical perception.
We know from quantum mechanics that an object perceived in space is determined by the perception of it. No other is known. The instant the label is present, the perceived is subjugated to that label. But on investigation into whether or not the label is the labelled, it gets seen that it is not. So something shifts in perception when a label is questioned. And yet, constant questioning can be no more than psychological hypothesis that amounts to nothing other than more hypothesis with no practical application in sight (which is all very well if it’s there for entertainment) But when there are big questions to be answered like ‘why are we here?’ , ‘who are we’, ‘what is the meaning of life’, etc., then hypothesis can be a problem because sooner or later it’s seen to be a tail chase and the desire to know is left unsatisfied.
