Private Heresies

An artist wonders about the differences between emotion and feeling or rational and intellectual activities, and, finding the dictionary of no use, winds up tracing her own mental activities for the next 30 years. Treating every traceable mental and physical sensation as energy-in-motion, she records the movements observed in schematic drawings. In the mapping of sensations and other stirrings she stumbles upon an operating system of the mind. She makes her findings public in the hope that other curious people might have had similar impressions.
