[QUOTE="Manbearcat, post: 6234899, member: 6696971"] No worries. I have to get to bed but I'll try to address your points tomorrow. One thing I was specifically trying to do was to excise the "immersion" interest from the issue. It seems to me that the conflation of "need for tight coupling of fictional position:mechanical process for the sake of 1st person, deep immersion" with "capacity to expand or contract the imagination" does a disservice to the effort to achieve clarity on the discernment of the nature of the latter. We're trying to distill that signal from the noise of competing RPG interests. Reintroducing that noise doesn't seem very productive. Not quite correct. Dali's most well-known works are his Surrealist works but he had a deep and prolific period of Impressionism that preceded his jaunt into Surrealism. His largest collection of works outside of Europe is right in my backyard! Along with the lithograph [I]Lincoln in Dalivision[/I], his classical impressionist [I]Landscape Near Figueras[/I] is probably my favorite of his works. Dali was extremely versatile. He was much more than just a Surrealist and certainly had a deep Impressionist background. [/QUOTE]
