Thanks Ali and Ulus!!
Where is this documented:
"People know what they do; they frequently know why they do; but what they
don't know is what what they do does"
... how can I quote that??
... this is fantastic ... exactly what I want to articulate.

<DIV></DIV>remanence is a word borrowed from physics --the magnetic effect that
<DIV></DIV>endures in a ferro-magnetized field after the effect was purged -- but
<DIV></DIV>it can have a fruitful chance --in spite of Sokal's warnings-- in the
<DIV></DIV>domain of thinking --philosophy, human sciences, especially
<DIV></DIV>filmmaking...
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>philosophically it refers to "images" which are nothing but the
<DIV></DIV>"traces" of a real corporeal-physical effect on a body... hence...
<DIV></DIV>Spinoza's "images" are nothing but "remanences"... And the culmination
<DIV></DIV>of this philosophical interpretation of the term could be the formula:
<DIV></DIV>"a perduring effect even when the cause is removed". Physics was
<DIV></DIV>capable to find it out in magnetic and electromagnetic fields
<DIV></DIV>--including what we simply call today as "registration" (magnetic,
<DIV></DIV>videographic, if not digital)... if we really believe in the
