Abstract
ABSTRACT In his beautiful mediation on the sights and sounds that crest in waves of oceanic feeling, Adam Blum challenges a false binary between intuiting the moment and understanding the moment – and, by extension, being in love and knowing love. With attention to how temporality inheres differently during listening and seeing, I describe how psychoanalysts and anthropologists differently locate structure in the manner of being in time that their method posits. Surfers and yoga practitioners span perception immersively – as does Blum – such that listening and seeing, being and knowing, inhere as union, in an Ocean that, when encountered in the simultaneity of possibility and constraint which translates as the love fellow surfers share, joins accomplices in the arc of history at the peak of momentum, as a community vested with the challenge of the next climactic wave.
