A chapter is nearing its close. And another is about to begin.
Unfinished stories have totally different charm. Perhaps that’s the secret of sad stories too…. Impact is about a lingering feeling, something that stays with you. Happy ending don’t leave lingering thoughts, incomplete stories do, and the final proof that we are all intrinsically optimistic is that sad stories linger in us for long. Cause perhaps we all try to find think and restructure the story to see all the ‘could be’ endings
Unfinished stories… may be this chapter will be an incomplete chapter.
Incompleteness is perhaps a formula for creativity.
I learnt the rules in design school, gestaults laws: give a person an incomplete visual, and the mind attempts to complete it
I saw the same in my research on humor in products where just a part of a product is all that’s needed to convey the form.
Questions… are incomplete by themselves, they need answers, and thus questions too, remain the base of creativity.
In life does incompleteness spin the same magic?

really beautiful.. something that'll stay with me..
All your chapters are connected..(flaws, patterns, incompleteness) your answers also there...You idealise balance, symmetry, perfect geometry (visible in your designs as well), What you seek you consciously avoid to decipher. Take that jump...its right there!! why dont you see what i do..?
Why the inability to accept greys of life and in design..
Intersting cryptics and balance in the motif's (hope there's a puzzle, am working on it...)
But absolute genuius
*bows down in awe of a first of a kind..philosophical (design) poet*
psst...identify with the series 'Sex & the City'? do you note the similarities ?
tunkis of soul searching ;)
You know, I agree with the basic premise- incompleteness does linger in your mind.
But, incompleteness in a virtue that, I think can be given any story! Happy endings linger in MY mind, because I'm constructing what would happen AFTER that! Any book, any movie- I think before sleep takes me over- WHAT HAPPENED LATER?
I really liked the thought of this post though, only a few technicalities I have issue with.
In ancient India, a guru was supposed to leave a 'fistful' of learning NOT passed on. Greed? Ego? Or just ensuring that the student completed it in his own way and kept the issue alive?
Also, Jana gana mana is one of the few songs that does NOT end on 'sa'. The dream goes on...
