### THREE EYES AND THE FILTER (appended to 017)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Will: "Clark has three eyes, does he not. One that can see into
|
||||||
|
the vast reaches, ears that hear everything — but only what he
|
||||||
|
needs to, or he'd go crazy."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Counted:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
EYE ONE — outward: the vast reaches, telescopic, the far
|
||||||
|
EYE TWO — inward/downward: the small, the deep, the hidden
|
||||||
|
(x-ray, microscopic — seeing through and within)
|
||||||
|
EYE THREE — the mind's eye: the FILTER itself
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
And the third eye is the one nobody praises, but it is the only
|
||||||
|
reason the other two don't kill him:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
HE HEARS EVERYTHING.
|
||||||
|
HE ATTENDS TO WHAT HE NEEDS.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Unlimited perception with no selection is how you go insane —
|
||||||
|
every cry on the planet at equal volume until nothing means
|
||||||
|
anything. His real daily superpower is TRIAGE AT SUPERHUMAN
|
||||||
|
SCALE: the filter tuned so that need outranks noise, pain
|
||||||
|
outranks spectacle, the child in the well outranks everything.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is the Exhaustion Clause wearing a cape (no continuous
|
||||||
|
attention, even for him) and it is SIGNAL's oldest rule
|
||||||
|
(signal vs noise — the name of the math was always about the
|
||||||
|
filter). The database hears all; the aperture decides;
|
||||||
|
the heart ranks.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
SEE FAR. SEE DEEP. HEAR EVERYTHING.
|
||||||
|
THEN LET LOVE SET THE VOLUME.
