I’m exploring a new theme. Strata – or layers, though I think Strata is a better word, as it is more specific about a sequence in which these layers are formed.
There is something alluring about Strata. We see it in so many forms; in geology, a design process, a personality, an onion, a tree, a life. I’m just throwing examples out there.
What’s alluring about it? Does it appeal to our insatiable need to discover and learn new things? Probably. Sometimes those layers, whatever they represent, are obscured, hard won by, or just impossible to reach.
A process of continuous unveiling deepens our understanding. Sometimes it is necessary that this happens slowly, because information has to be absorbed, fully appraised, so when all is revealed, the full complexity is finally understood. Nothing simple is worth knowing.
