I was just wondering how many people here get existential thoughts and feelings sometimes? I used to get them a lot and would contemplate everything, but lately I almost never do. It's all about the moment and the stuff I do and can actually touch and see and hear now. Do any of you feel existentialism is useless or can it help a person at least gain a (maybe) false sense of understanding? |

just when i watch cube |
||||||||
|

|
|
congratulations! you're becoming an adult! existentialism is just a phase in puberty. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just wait till they put you in the cube |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe, yeah yeah.. i used to get it really heavily too :[[ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what's with the cube? are you aiming at that crappy cult-flick? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And a field of study in philosophy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
which is a field where people who got stuck in that phase try to do something with it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Not really. The study of existentialism goes far beyond the teenage years of angst; I wouldn't do it if it was just some masturbatory exercise for me as I believe I have an obligation to try and research important things. Existentialist studies branches into many other fields like politics, psychology, ethics, social studies, etc. Basically anything that deals with humans. You should try reading up on it beyond a wikipedia article. |

it's crappy. wait till you've seen the second and third episode. you will agree....o yes you will.... |
||||||||

|
|
2 is great too 3 (zero) is quite shit |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
in that case you're obviously lost. perhaps you should try reading up on some existentialist works if you haven't already. starting with the wiki, of course. (thanks for the tip DM!) |
||||||||

|
|
at least i know how to get out of the cube |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well, at least I tried. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

|
prime numbers! |

I've tried philosophy, I've tried other things, but at the end of the day what makes one happy, I've realised, is a spliff, some baileys, and a copy of "Okami" on the good old PS2. Beautiful, yes. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
no, an autistic that's good with numbers |

And then you should remember youur obligation to society. godel: either you're trolling, in which case I'm sorry I ruined it, I just didn't have the time, or you're serious, in which case you haven't read or understood modern existentialist research. In either case, there's benefit in you reading it and understanding it. |

i used to all the time. until i resolved it. |

Certain points of Existentialism I use as tools; personal responsibility and personal choice. Like any system, why adhere to it? It's someone else's, not your own; utilise those ideas which resonate & develop your own personal system; who wants to be a cheap mass produced paperback novel? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Most of what you adhere to is someone else's anyway, but it's true that what you can't translate to your own life, when it comes to that part of existentialism, doesn't matter much. Also, I command you to produce more tunes like parallax-15! |

You like that track? I think it had a companion (I seem to make pairs of tracks quite often), cos it was one of my fictional game soundtrack numbers :] |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think it may be my most fav+ track of yours! Where's its companion? |

What the fuck is Existentialism ? |
||||||||

existentialism is more of a historic term for the movement in philosophy - now a days you can only be an existentialist - meening you accept the ideas of the movement. essentially we have moved forward or evolved past existentialism. |
