Ezzes by Estis – air person

Some say I am an air man. An air man is everywhere and nowhere, an air man does not make any roots, an air person does not pursue a consistent activity, an air man is more wind than it is a being at all.

So some say I am an air man. But that is only partially true. I always move on the bottom of the facts, my statements are always well -founded, my specialist knowledge is my firm, immovable basis, my works are my supporting pillars, my method is a concrete road.

But that much is correct: my work is on an extraordinarily abstract, on a more than abstract level. My area is the methodology of formalization of theories. I am currently writing a book in which I try to find a model for how scientific theory models are changing.

Alexander Estis, a freelance Jew without a permanent residence, writes so much Schmonzes in this column that the pejes grow.

And now it is essential to overcome all the preventive concreteity, to get out of the clutch of the singular, to free yourself from the perfidie of specifics. For example, I could now also report in great detail that the wider blade of the beard shears that I bought on October 10 shows about 13 millimeters below the tip shows an indiscriminate inclination in its origin, which caused a sensitive tearing on a hair when the mustache is sucked yesterday. Even the fact that I wear a mustache, yes, that I have hair at all or other attributes, is shameful acidish and almost frighteningly irrelevant.

All of the concreta that surround us adjust the view of the categories behind it. The categorical raisins from the doughy mass of the accidential should be used to pour out. Incidentally, this is also a model of theoretical formation, albeit a completely profane, and therefore, although indirectly, the subject of my research.

You can also choose another model. All attributes are then ballast, all predications, all qualifications, all quiddities – ballast, which you have to drop to climb to the necessary height, wants to say so that it is necessary to abstract; And I have to abstract, even extremely.

So it is not entirely wrong if I am sometimes referred to as withdrawn. You shouldn’t take that too literally. And yet, since I have been working on my book, I have had the feeling more and more when I walked, as if I were, as it were, between the steps, always a little longer in the air.

Which of course does not have to mean anything. But one can also understand it as a – if still slight – development towards overcoming gravity, towards the triumphant victory of theory over matter. And so I will not refuse to do so, but on the contrary, as an acknowledgment of my achievement, I will consider it if you call me an air man in this regard.
