SUPRA-NATURAL
ART
Beyond
the extreme supernatural art
Of
conceptual light art lies
The
supra-natural art of holography,
A
truly radical theocratic art
Which,
taken to abstract extremes, would confirm
A free-electron absolutism suited to
A
transcendental age and society,
And
antithetical to the inception of art
In terms, necessarily mundane, of representational sculpture.
If
holography begins in the representational,
Relative
to Social Transcendentalism,
It
must culminate in the abstract,
In
deference to the absolutist criteria of
A more extreme, or super-transcendental age.
Holograms
suggest a kind of external tripping,
As
though they were LSD visions outside
Rather than inside the mind.
Thus
they would be appropriate to
The
hallucinogenic phase of a theocratic age,
As
much the converse of
The
internal spiritual life of contemplation
As
television is currently the converse of
The internal soulful life of dreams.
And
the same would apply to
The
later, hypermeditating phase of such an age,
When,
in order to correspond with the internal world,
The
holograms would have to be abstract -
Projections
into space of abstract sculptural shapes,
Specifically
globular in appearance,
The better to intimate of ultimate essence.
