i didn't know we were talking about this. (this = 'science' concept
and industrial [role] 'displeasure'). once, when i was younger (i am
20), science was mystical and reserved and my only friend
(fascination mode); now i find that it is everything, and that it is
the primary resource (which can be an overwhelming realization); this
model donates independence to the individual giving him/her
discretion on access. also,
one does not need to necessarily align his/her academic \work\ with
his/her \interests\. this can be saturating and deconstructive; try
small shifts (think red). i am taking a subbatical from pure science
next semester (metaphysics, neural basis of cognition, horror film,
photonics, vienna, world food economy (i want to know where
light-energy is going)). essentially
Andy
