The act of contemplation then creates the thing created.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Desire creates its own object.
One creates oneself.
Part of creating is understanding that there is always more to do; nothing is ever completely finished.
The process of creation goes on all the time. When I get through, I feel I know what the character will do in every situation. But the building up of the part is not mechanical or deliberate. It grows out of the text.
The process of creating is related to the process of dreaming although when you are writing you're doing it and when you're dreaming, it's doing you.
In contemplation and reverie, one thought introduces another perpetually; and it is by similarity, or the hooking of one upon the other, that the process of thinking is carried on.
At the start of the process the idea is just a thought - very fragile and exclusive. When the first physical manifestation is created everything changes. It is no longer exclusive, now it involves a lot of people.
First comes thought; then organization of that thought, into ideas and plans; then transformation of those plans into reality. The beginning, as you will observe, is in your imagination.
Things you create with your mind are always part of your postmortal life, whether they seem real or not.
One does not contemplate it like a picture. The idea of contemplation disappears completely. Simply take note that it's a bottle rack, or that it's a bottle rack that has changed its destination... It's not the visual question of the readymade that counts; it's the fact that it exists, even.
