Ambiguity and uncertainty can create compelling, intriguing, even life-saving ideas. Seductive ideas rest on our ability to spark the kind of intrigue that will keep the imagination engaged.
“In the states of temporary inactivity or quietude Zen artists see the very essence of creative energy. The human spirit is by nature indefinable, the power of suggestion is exalted as the mark of a truely authentic creation. Finiteness is thought to be at odds with nature, implying stagnation which is associated with loss of life.” -Matthew May
