The selection of an accidental word 2.

SELECTION

A selection of an accidental word.

The above sentence is a paradox. The “accidental word” reefers to randomness, whereas the word “selection” brings into thought something what is precisely chosen.

“To select” means, to choose precisely, also “selection” means one or few out of a number of things. It can be one out of two, one out of ten, one out of a thousand, one out of endless number of subjects. To select can mean ten out of ten, two out of a hundred, five out of a million.

It is a paradox, to think about selecting two out of one. How can we select something what isn’t there? We can select non existing subject, but then the process of selection becomes the process of creation. The selection becomes invention and that is the way the idea arises.

If the selection doesn’t apply to any of the matters we allowed to choose from, it becomes creation. Although the creation is a selection as well, but a selection on a different level. It still applies to something what we already know, which means that, the idea is made out of the selected things within our consciousness anyway.

Therefore a non selection is a selection of already selected elements.

And this is my selection of writing nonsense, something out of nothing, nothing out of something. The vicious circle created out of one word actually…
