  1. The essay “In Praise of Shadows” by Jun'ichirō Tanizaki is relevant to my post yesterday about “mystery”. This essay describes aesthetic virtues of concealment and darkness. Dark nooks are all over the place at nighttime. But this mysterious darkness is there without being set up for aesthetic effect. That is, it is not a human's artwork. So why should we set up our own mysteries when Nature is already bursting with them?

  2. Is it better for the mysterious to remain mysterious? If I write 月の馬 to a friend who does not know Japanese, is it better for them to learn what it means, or for them to relish the mystery? Twilight Sparkle charges into mysteries like a sword, and she loves finding answers. Is it ever friendly to withhold solutions to mysteries? When I look at the Cyrillic alphabet, it looks like wizard runes. But some of my family can actually read it. Which is more valuable: mystery or understanding?

  6. Love Letter teaches card-counting, action videogames teach reaction time, and tennis teaches hand-eye coordination. But I don't know of a game that teaches kindness. What skills are better learned from games, and what skills are better learned from real life?

        • The poster that you stick on the wall, if it is designed on the computer, is in an odd situation. The creases that let it fold are not used to artistic effect, and probably the artist will be unaware of the texture and size of the printed medium. Even if she prints the poster out at intervals to examine the feel and quality of the paper, it is not as convenient as being able to feel at any time. Maybe this is a consequence of the poster's “reproducibility”. It is designed to be copied indefinitely, starting from digital file and ending as a poster on the wall. How about this: if the artist wants to be able to feel the texture at any time and use the creases for an artistic effect, she can draw it on the very same kind of creased paper that she intends to print on. But then, the artist wouldn't be doing digital painting anymore, which ruins the whole idea!
