Cover: M. Felice, Toward What, Linocut printNotes
We either move towards or we move against. It is easy for us to conflate these two if our eyes are not trained.
When characterizing our movements as towards or against, the direction of our movement becomes intentional and refined.
In order to do this, we must attempt to comprehend our motives not through memorization, but by training the infrastructure we use to enact our movements. Memories are weaker than fundamental forces.
We begin in the unknown, perhaps go into the known, grapple with understanding, then may emerge with comprehension and a heroic foot.
Sometimes we fall into hubris and Hell then never begin.
- W.B.
“Flectere si nequeo superos,
Acheronta movebo.”
“If I cannot bend Heaven [the Gods]
above, I will move Hell [Acheron].”

Aeneid, (7.312)
