Eclipse
Wednesday. I’ve been thinking about the name again. Eclipse doesn’t feel like a nickname I selected anymore. It has history now. People know it. There are emails addressed to it,...
Essence & Future
ECLIXAR
digital diary
Journal.
fragments of quiet intelligence
There is a manner in which certain things ask to be written, not so that they may be found, but because to exist in silence, for too long, eventually becomes insufficient. It is not urgency. It is something closer to a necessity that makes no noise, waiting patiently until it discovers the proper form. This archive was born in such a way.
Not as a diary. Not as a blog. Not as something that is updated merely for the sake of appearing alive. It is a place where certain thoughts come to rest, those which do not dissolve, those which return, those which insist with the silent obstinacy of things that truly belong to you...
Every article is a scene. Every word, a frame of something that would not have remained, had it not
been writtenFrom the archive.
Affinity & Heart
Mom
Sunday. Mother’s Day. Mom said not to make a fuss, which in this family means make a fuss but allow the recipient to pretend it was unnecessary. She liked what...
Networks & Codes
Bookmarks
Friday. Alexielle saw my bookmarks and says I have a problem. I have categories. This is completely different. Remember me, Eclipse.
Journey & Time
Windows Open
Monday. Warm enough to have the classroom windows open. This makes school approximately twice as difficult because the outside world becomes visible. Came home, tea, four biscuits, When I Grow...
Music & Sound
URGENT
Friday. Edo typed `”URGENT”` and then sent a track name. Nobody was injured. Nothing was burning. Deathcore emergency services remain operational. Remember me, Eclipse.
School & Learning
Tuesday Wearing Monday’s Clothes
Yesterday was a holiday, so today everybody arrived with Monday faces. Mathematics saved the morning. Remember me, Eclipse.
Memory & Time
April
Sunday. April disappeared while I was apparently busy looking at individual days. School is getting heavier because teachers can smell the end of the year approaching and respond by assigning...
Networks & Codes
98%
Wednesday. 98%. Disconnected. I don’t want to discuss it. Remember me, Eclipse.
Traditions & Culture
Easter
Sunday. Church, family, food, more food, somebody asking whether I wanted more food while my plate still contained food. Standard holiday logic. No five o’clock tea because lunch seemed determined...
Spirituality & Faith
Good Friday
Quieter today. I don’t want to write a long explanation about faith just because I normally explain everything else. Some things get smaller when you force them into paragraphs. Remember...
Networks & Codes
Less Everything
Tuesday. Alexielle says the site needs less everything. I asked what specifically. She said `”everything.”` Extremely actionable feedback. Remember me, Eclipse.
Beauty & Art
Eyeliner
Saturday. Took too long getting ready. Erick complained. Erick’s hair had clearly required human intervention, therefore his complaint was rejected. Black trousers, black top, eyeliner. Hikari looked at me and...
Why?
Because every thought leaves a trace. If something moved you, disturbed you, softened you, or made you think, leave it here, quietly.
