Summary

Gustave Deresse's poetic essay reflects on the profound insights and simplicity revealed through the lens of digital screens, touching on themes of logic, philosophy, and the nature of existence.

Abstract

In "The Fine Mesh Of A Screen," Gustave Deresse explores the paradoxical nature of digital datasets, which can unveil deep truths from our experiences while also raising questions about the essence of what can truly be known. Through a series of contemplative verses, Deresse ponders the illuminating power of mathematics and logic that screens afford us, granting glimpses into past, present, and future. He muses on the enigmatic nature of reality as filtered through the "fine mesh" of screens, suggesting that the complexity of existence might be distilled into something more straightforward. The essay concludes with introspective questions about the value of answers and the potential of a page—or a screen—to hold the key to our deepest queries.

The Fine Mesh Of A Screen

by Gustave Deresse

An immaterial dataset reveals all deeply concealed from experience.

There, the math & the logic brilliantly shine — allowing us to peer into the future, the present, and the past.

The question becomes of what precisely there is to be seen.

Truly, all that there is, and all that could ever be?

Or is everything still simpler once sifted through the fine mesh of the screen?

The solutions may never matter beyond life itself.

If a page held all the answers, would it be worth leaving the shelf?

It could just be me.
