getting the viewer lost

how can cynicism be important/ helpful / how can it redirect us?
when do we stop reading and start writing?  how can we started making terms like cynicism our own?  with our own nuances, ideas, complexities, generative perspectives?
how do we surf atop the avalanche?
snowflakes vs avalanche
avalanche = the environment?  neoliberalism?  homogeneity?  corporate personhood?
can there be avalanche surfboards or wonderfully padded caskets?

threshold (bananafish too fat) threshold as a kind of dark knowledge once we get it we can't
unget it
what is the value of romance/romanticism in getting at these ideas?
is romance a bad term?  too clunky?
nihilism, cynicism, existentialism,
where as artists can we add value / complexity to more straightforward ideas
of romanticism/nihi/cyn/exist????
how can we invite the viewer to get lost in a 'field of thought'?
