Immanence

A phenomenon of perception which fools human beings into concluding that consciousness has material origins ie. consciousness emerges from cognizANCE.

A fallacy of scientific (mechanistic) materialism in which consciousness is assumed to be emerge from the mind itself.

Immanence is implicitly stated in Descartes' duality of mind and body.
Descartes noted that thoughts are not necessarily functions of reality. He wondered if the mind was truly contained in the body. Explicitly, immanence would argue that Descartes' inquiry was incomplete as he was able to separate feelings from perception but he was too limited by technology to separate senses (thoughts) from feelings.

Hinduism approaches imanence by arguing that senses appear from consciousness rather than from cognizance as Descartes conjectured.

Resolving the fallacy of Descartes' mechanistic sense (sense as emergent from perception) allows sense and "thoughts" to meta-emerge from consciousnesses itself.

color-line duality

An aesthetic (cyclical) theory of history in which colors and lines alternate in emphasis depending on a medium's stage in material history.

Begins with lines of colors on white surfaces (paintings) in the Romantic era to lines of single colors on black surfaces (neon) in the modern (industrial) era, to black lines created by contrapositive primary colors (pop realism) in the postmodern era to white lines on pastel colors (New Wave) in late postmodernism to white lines created by recursive (self-referencing) colors in hypermodernism.
Color-line duality is an aesthetic phenomenon that presages the ascendance of aesthetic divergence over historical materialism as a theory of linear time.
