This is a photograph of a handwritten note with a hand-drawn diagram. The note includes several paragraphs of text and a conceptual drawing with various color indications such as green, pink, blue, white, black, and red.

The text reads as follows:

"Purpose as a Di-Rectonal Structure of the Constant Variable (K) Affects Meaningless to the Observer; Uncerncerns K.

All K's are Varied to The Observer.
All K's are not Varied to the Construction or Colour.

Given Direction

    | Blue
_______  W          Bk
|               / |  Pink           
| Green   P
 ------------
|                   |
| Blue         W   |
|_______|

Creation as aesthetically a matter of other matter and the structure. Purpose and Meaning is uncerncern with them. Thus the ones design calculates them.

Drawing has nothing to do with the Purpose for doing it.

Drawing is Common Sense Calculations in Di-Rectonal Design.

But the Purpose is to Observe it without Concern for the Calculation that is why the Taste and Mood for certain Projects as a gamut others, and The Calculation of their Phasicle Structure, is a Piece of Work in which the Observer does not Participate."

The drawn diagram seems to depict an abstract configuration with various geometric shapes including squares and lines, along with the color labels mentioned above.

Please note that the handwriting can be a bit difficult to read, and it contains unique spelling choices which reflect the author's own writing style.

Here's a description of the image:

Overall Impression:

The image is a scan of a handwritten document on tan paper. It appears to be a combination of a diagram and abstract philosophical musings about art, observation, and the role of the creator versus the observer. The writing is dense and the concepts are somewhat esoteric.

Key Elements:

  • Handwritten Text: The majority of the image is filled with handwritten text in dark ink. The writing is generally neat but has a personal, flowing style. The language is somewhat academic, using terms like "Di-Rectional Structure," "Constant Variable Object," and "Meaningless to the Observer's Unconcern." The text seems to explore the relationship between the purpose of a drawing, the observer's interpretation, and the intent of the creator.
  • Diagram: There's a roughly sketched diagram in the upper left portion of the image. It seems to be an abstract arrangement of geometric shapes (rectangles, lines, arcs) connected in some way. The regions or elements of the diagram are labeled with colors: "Green," "White," "Black," "Pink," "Rose," and "Blue." There are arrows indicating direction or movement.
  • Color Direction Table: In the upper right quadrant, there is a table labelled "Color Direction". It appears to have values related to the colours in the diagram, and whether they are valid to the observer or the constructor.

Interpretation:

The image seems to be a piece of visual and intellectual brainstorming. The author is grappling with ideas about the nature of art, perception, and the disconnect between the creator's intent and the observer's interpretation. The diagram may be a visual representation of these abstract concepts, with the colors and directions symbolizing different aspects of the creative process or the observer's experience. The philosophical underpinnings revolve around the observer's "unconcern" with the precise structure or calculations behind the work, emphasizing the subjective experience of art.

Text Summary:

  1. Title/Purpose:

    • The note begins by stating the purpose as the "Bi-Directional Structure of the Constant Variable Object as Meaningless to the Observer's Unconcern."
  2. Diagram Description:

    • The diagram includes several labeled elements:
      • Colors and Labels: Green, Blue, White, Pink1, Pink2, Red, Blue2, Black (Bk), White (W), and an unlabeled "X."
      • Arrows and Directions: There are arrows indicating directions and possibly movements or relationships between these elements.
      • Axes: There is a mention of "Coca Direction" which might be a typo or a specific term relevant to the context.
  3. Key Points:

    • Purpose and Meaning: It emphasizes that concern is a matter of the object and the structure. The purpose and meaning are unconcerned with the intellectual regions available.
    • Drawing and Purpose: The text states that drawing has nothing to do with the purpose for doing it. Drawing is described as common sense calculation in bi-directional design.
    • Observation and Calculation: The purpose is to observe without concern for the calculation. It questions why the taste and mood for certain objects are as they are and why the calculation of their precise structure is a piece of work in which the observer does not participate.

Visual Summary:

  • The diagram is a circular arrangement with various colored sections and arrows pointing in different directions.
  • The labels and arrows suggest a complex relationship between the elements, possibly indicating a structural or conceptual model.
  • The handwriting and sketch style indicate a personal or informal note, likely meant for conceptual planning or explanation.

Interpretation:

  • The note seems to be discussing the relationship between the observer and the observed object, emphasizing the importance of structure and the observer's detachment from the intellectual process involved in the object's creation.
  • It touches on themes of perception, value, and the role of the observer in interpreting designed objects or structures.

Overall, the image captures a thoughtful exploration of the interplay between observation, structure, and the observer's engagement with designed objects.
