the value of meaninglessness,

You realize, of course, that the persisting meaningfulness of "meaninglessness" sabotages you effort to clarify your ... um, meaning?

I have to admit that it's taken me a long while to really dissociate a prefixed meaning from "meaninglessness," as it if were some Sartrean anomie wafting across the Algerian sands. <g> We think "meaninglessness" means something specific.

In a physical analogy to your exhortation to give up the meaningful parasitic relationship and return to the purity of new experiences, artists turn the canvas upside down in order to disturb the visual complacency that has developed by looking at the same picture intensely for several days or weeks.
