Extra Credit Blog: Emblem



















Here, I present to you the emblem of my representation: The Void

At first glance, it may appear to be an empty blank, but in reality, it is just a lightest of shade emitted from the darkest of substance. Something of a facade, misguiding its observer. It is bare, as it is nothing.

A nobody.

Devoid of any identifiable properties. It is a canvas which waits to be marked upon. And because the white hew conceals its nature, it is alone, forever to remain unrealized.

You see, the light-particles (photons), upon coming into contact with the item, immediately bounce right off. None stick; as if believing they are better off on their own trajectory. The Void however, does not believe itself to be better off without the photonic accompaniment. This is inferrable by the ironic outcome of its color, which incidentally, is conducive for inviting other colors. Yet, all that awaits it, all the reply to its proposal, is deception. It remains empty. An empty blank to which imagination can endeavor unabated and infinitely.


Harry Houdini died on the same day of the year that I was born. If there's anything his spirit transferred over to mine, it is knowing how to disappear.

  1. This is a beautiful emblem because on the one hand, it is aesthetically minimalist, and on the other, full of depth. I'm just sort of sitting here more or less mesmerized...I'm not entirely sure how to respond.

  2. I'm grateful for that. My only agenda in life is to make people feel things... Whatever, how ever that might look like
