"Thinking Out Of The Box"

"Thinking Out Of The Box"

The phrase actually comes from Wittgenstein's picture theory- or The limits of my language are the limits of my world. What we know and how we related stuff to each other is bounded as if in a picture frame, a collage of experiences, exposure and so on. So, we just operate within those boundaries. We do make combinations and permutations but if there are finite objects within the frame, there are finite number of combinations even if we have unlimited capacity for processing information. So, it is escaping this frame that makes it Thinking outside the box.
BOX" is "MEMORY" from where old ideas, thoughts, concepts arise. While these old things can work as solutions to some or all technological problems, they are woefully inadequate when it comes to solving psychological problems. That is where thinking or perhaps at a profoundly deeper level of consciousness, NON-thinking must happen "OUT OF THE BOX".
The problem of anger, fear, jealousy, hatred cannot be solved IN THE BOX. One has to be totally free of old, stale ideas in order to look at psychological problems.I have tried to depict them through the medium of colours such as 'red' for anger etc.

Thinking out side of box, you will hit the box office of life! I have share this for quiet some time with my film makes friends in this world. To step out side the box, we have to be corrigeous. Brave to stand forworth to Truth. To express our love without having a fear, you had to create with your own colour in your spirit to communicate. Everything speaks in our life. Silent speaks, if we only listen to our moment of life. For sure your art speak and your interputation is another form of art.
