Nicholas Humphrey – Kırmızıyı Görmek (2023)

Bilinç nedir, ne yapar, neden var? Kırmızı bir perde görmek insana dünyaya dair bir şey söyler. Ama zihinde yeni bir olguya da yol açar: zihnimizdeki bir duyuma, kırmızılık hissine. Geleneksel bilim bilinç duyumların nelerden oluştuğunu, bunları nasıl elde ettiğimizi veya bunlara nasıl sahip olduğumuzu bize henüz söylemedi. İşte bu kitap da bilincin amacını evrimsel bir perspektiften…

I just read a journal about suicide and human evolution by Nicholas Humphrey, which you can read here.

It's very interesting read, and got me out of the small bout of derealization I was having.

The thought on where the idea of suicide comes from, and all the different ways we're influenced really kept me engaged.

I got a nice chuckle from phrasing "the suicide meme" but literally speaking it's correct.

What I found most interesting tho, was the part on Sensory Consciousness. That we as humans are driven by a want to experience all sorts of sensory stimulation, and that in itself is reason enough to stick around and continue living.

By my own life experience, I heartily agree with Humphrey on that point. I'm constantly seeking out stimulation that either sooths or excites me. Particularly, extreme stimulation, such as extreme temperatures, heights, flavors, and pushing myself to my physical limits. Have always been fascinated with that last one, but I not sure if it's more of an ego thing or a stimulation thing.

Anyway, I'll probably be doing more of these ramblings, as I think I quite enjoy them!

Till next time--

I was born when she kissed me. I died when she left me. I lived a few weeks while she loved me.

this is definitely too niche for comprehension but i've just realised that Humphrey from BBC Ghosts would be a perfect candidate for the Headless Hunt from the Harry Potter books...

Gloria Grahame and Humphrey Bogart in In a Lonely Place (Nicholas Ray, 1950)

Cast: Humphrey Bogart, Gloria Grahame, Frank Lovejoy, Carl Benton Reid, Art Smith, Jeff Donnell, Martha Stewart, Robert Warwick, Morris Ankrum, William Ching, Steven Geray, Hadda Brooks. Screenplay: Andrew Solt, Edmund H. North, based on a story by Dorothy B. Hughes. Cinematography: Burnett Guffey. Art direction: Robert Peterson. Film editing: Viola Lawrence. Music: George Antheil.

The "lonely place" is Hollywood, where Dixon Steele (Humphrey Bogart) is a screenwriter with a barely held-in-check violent streak. This celebrated movie contains one of Bogart's best performances, though it looks and feels like the low-budget production it was. Bogart's own company, Santana, produced it for release through Columbia, instead of Bogart's employer, Warner Bros., which may explain why, apart from Bogart and Gloria Grahame, the supporting cast is so unfamiliar: The best-known face among them is Frank Lovejoy, who plays Bogart's old army buddy, now a police detective. In a Lonely Place seems to be set in a different Hollywood from the one seen in the year's other great noir melodrama, Billy Wilder's Sunset Blvd. There are no movie star cameos and glitzy settings in the Bogart film. What this one has going for it, however, is a haunting, off-beat quality, along with some surprising heat generated between Bogart and Grahame, who plays Laurel Gray, a would-be movie actress with an intriguing, only partly glimpsed past that hints at a sapphic subtext. She has, for example, a rather bullying masseuse (Ruth Gillette), who seems to be a figure out of this past. In fact, the whole film is made up of enigmatic figures, including Steele's closest friends, his agent, Mel Lippman (Art Smith), and an aging alcoholic actor, Charlie Waterman (Robert Warwick). Both of them stick with Steele despite his tendency to fly off the handle: He insults and at one point even slugs the agent, while at another he defends the actor with his fists against an insult. Though the central plot has to do with Steele's being suspected of murdering a hat-check girl (Martha Stewart) he brought to his apartment to tell him the plot of a novel he's supposed to adapt, the film is less a murder mystery than a study of a damaged man and his inability to overcome whatever made him that way. And despite the usual tendency of Hollywood films to end with a resolution by tying up loose ends, In a Lonely Place leaves its characters as tensely enigmatic as they were at the start -- perhaps even more so.
