"I learned to fluently and comfortably write proofs at any level of rigor required, yet is that thinking? After I learned to do it, it felt like a mechanical skill, like diagramming a sentence. [...] I can no longer be awed by mathematical formalisms in economics or the humanities — they instead often feel like an attempt to obscure a lack of thought." god... i hate how true it is

the sheer number of reactions to his post is the gift that keeps on giving.

behind the humor, there was something very visceral about his post... somehow it's transcended its form

I love this idea but I'm too overwhelmed with long term projects and other books on my TBR pile to participate

@siqu Ok! In return I suggest Rings of Saturn by W.G. Sebald if you haven't read it. Your writing often has a similar feel to his narration.

Regarding the micro-saddle, I really enjoy what you said about indulging in the fantasy aspect and its role and disconnect it has from reality

"I’ve wrapped myself in an artifact of another person’s life" - i've always loved the feeling of wearing someone else's clothes, and i think this is a great way of putting it. my childish brain imagines it like an alternate costume for a video game character, or a superhero, or something; like when the black power ranger dons the green ranger's chestplate. it feels cool to adorn myself with a small part of my friends

My plan to strong arm you into writing something worked! I will have to add Wang Xiaobo to your Murakami vs. Houellebecq analysis at some point and make a three way venn diagram out of them, since he also exhibits many similarities and interesting differences...

Also you might have read it already, but Vonnegut's Bluebeard is another meditation on "what is art?" that specifically focuses on Pollock. I like to pair it with his earlier novel Deadeye Dick, narrated by the son of a failed painter.
