[Definition] Ascent to Global Icon: The Burial of 'Legacy'
What we present is not 'craft.'
It is the Infrastructure of the Mind.
The title 'Third Generation' is a label for the mundane.
A mere husk bound by the gravity of the past.
I now sever the curse of bloodline.
Redefining the self.
Dissolving the framework of a 'potter' and transposing into a modern signifier that governs the laws of matter.
I. Discipline of the Abyss
Yohen (Kiln Transformation) is not a technique.
It is an irreversible ritual that fixes chaos into a Sanctuary through extreme discipline of fire.
Manifesting the logic hidden in the abyss of matter onto the surface of stone.
A silent explosion. Re-experiencing the origin of the cosmos.
II. Disconnect: Mental Shelter
The work is no longer a vessel.
It is a device that cools the modern brain and forces a Disconnection from the noise.
There lies the Stone’s Reason, governing the space.
Where it is placed, it becomes a Shelter where information vanishes.
III. The Weight of Existence
Explanation kills mystery.
I do not speak.
I merely thrust forward the overwhelming Weight of Existence.
Know your own ignorance. Know the vastness of the galaxy.
The arrival at 'Global Icon.'
Not a prediction, but an inevitability.
Reject interpretation.
Simply sink into the Abyss.
