Dumb shit people say when they cant tell the dif between an object and a concept! “ Nothing is an object in its own frame of reference. A simple thing to say, but the implications are profound when taken literally. I do take them literally, so that like time and length, objectivity itself is relativistic*. There are no truly objective objects, only experiences which are frozen by distance and unfamiliarity. What is truly objective is, ironically, subjectivity. The sense of perceiving and participating, while nested in an elaborate way for human participants, is, in my view, the simplest possible phenomenon within which all other phenomena are described. The capacity for experience is absolute and irreducible, even though the capacity for human qualities of experience is contingent upon a Matroyshka Doll nesting of continuous non-human experiences. *I call this variation of object and non-object qualities by proximity and similarity ‘eigenmorphism’ (proper form).
