It sounds like the author is discovering intuition as articulated in a very ancient form. Artists and geniuses have long had experiences of knowledge and information flowing through them and expressing itself through them as some external thing. Actually, everyone has this, but some seemingly to a greater degree than others.<p>Take for example August Kekule who supposedly discovered the shape of the benzene ring via dream of an ouroboros. Or, Seymour Cray who came to solutions via "communicating with elves" under his home.<p>If I recall correctly, I remember reading that in ancient Greece it was believed wisdom and knowledge was some external thing (maybe only one philosopher thought this?), like a spirit that would visit an individual. Things were not actively learned, but they were granted and bestowed by an unknown force.<p>The article though is very difficult to parse. Not to be rude but the signature at the end makes me think the author might just really enjoy the sound of their own writing a bit too much and wants to come across as profound. Communicating things in simpler, more relatable terms is much more meaningful and valuable. Then again it's also possible the author is just so eccentric and brilliant that their way of thinking is difficult to follow.
