I theorize that most people pay the most attention to the main section of blob. Many may not even see the other bits at all! However, when an idea is dropped into my head, my natural instinct is to look at the streamers and the bits BEFORE looking at the blob. I have no difficulty understanding & accepting that even though there may no longer be any clear connection between bits & blob, the bits were certainly born of blob, which makes them acceptable. Not odd. Not frightening.
Not only that, but since the bits are far more unique than the blob, what I find is that they're far more interesting to examine. The streamers and the bits take on an importance and a focus out of perspective to their actual mass. There may be LOTS more blob… but I'll ignore that completely to explore the more interesting things that are going on in the outer edges of the splatter pattern.
And I'll want to explore them all! Since I still see them all as part of the original (while still comprehending their uniqueness), I can jump from bit to disconnected bit in a flash. Thought to apparently unrelated thought.
The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ, \ Moves on: nor all your Piety nor Wit \ Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line, \ Nor all your Tears wash out a Word of it. ~~71, Rubainat of Omar Khannam
