Creative Obsession is an apomary, a fragmented fusion of aphorisms, apothegms and apologues, which depicts a "boiling pot" of philosophy with astonishing succinctness.
The fervent protagonist of Creative Obsession is Homer Dogg, "a hardcore traveler, an honest scholar, and an infatuated artist." The apomary spans Homer Dogg's fleeting, peripatetic life, while unearthing a deep-rooted connectedness of aesthetic, epistemic, and ethic thinking. Creative Obsession celebrates "creative people of all stripes, who live and work passionately, resiliently, and with their eyes wide open." It portrays philosophic life in broad daylight for the "firstborn of the Third Millennium."
"Homer Dogg says in ten sentences (sometimes less) what others don't say in a whole book." -F. W. Nietzsche
"A literary, aporistic and, if you ask me, successful experiment in harnessing the omnipresent powers of abductive logic." -C. S. Peirce
Creative Obsession is a portrait of the indomitable spirits who wage impassioned, philosophic lives--artists of the 21st Century enmeshed in their soul-wrenching pursuit of new paradigms of understanding, who reject a "universalistic" rationality and its monolithic "correspondence" of Truth to Reality. With scintillating vignettes and incisive prose, Creative Obsession delves into the existential consequences of a radically "pragmatical" truth. It nurtures the burgeoning understanding that the mind is not a "mirror" of the True world-but that language is a mind-molding, human-made tool for adapting truly to postindustrial life on an increasingly inhospitable planet.
In just fifty-six eclectic segments (and a revealing afterword), Creative Obsession presents the glistening mosaic of a wide-open, un-universal, neo-philosophic landscape.
