This page was last updated on 30 July 2005.It is a beauty of things imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete.It is a beauty of things unconventional...It is also two separate words, with related but different meanings.Wabi and Sabi are independent word stems in normal speech.Sabi is most often applied to physical artistic objects, not writing.French writer GeorgesPerec , who also wrote the first book in that language on the GameOfGo, was a master of the technique.Krishnamurti speaks of our souls each being of the same paper but that which makes us unique is the creases left in the paper from all the folding and unfolding of experience.LeonardCohen was himself a Zen monk for a while, in a monastery on Mt.In Sanskrit duh means bad and kha means axle hole, so it means not holding your wheel of existence (Samsara) correctly for it to roll from the center.Put yourself in the eye of the storm or suffer.This is an absolutely wabisabi book.Ward loaned it to me at a PLoP and I read it in an hour an a half.Why are so many of my favorite books ShortBooks?Especially as far as accepting change and imperfection are concerned.He imposes a rather Western structure on an Eastern aesthetic, which might be necessary for a Westerner to have any idea of what he's talking about, but it leaves me wondering whether what he's talking about is still wabi sabi.I'm not sure that wabi sabi says much that isn't superficial about ExtremeProgramming, though.KeithBraithwaite Now that I've read the book I don't even think about worrying.You tell yourself that you will deal with the present moment, and when the future becomes the present, you will deal with as well.Emphasis on constant movement and adjustment, as opposed to deliberation and conscious planning.Technique and knowledge are increased to decrease their application.More specifically (as an example), XP directs you to implement only what's needed.The resulting vector class is incomplete, imperfect, unfinished; but yet delivers the functionality needed at the time.It is left as an exercise for the reader not to get annoyed at the vector class for not having minus when the next project needs it.The best explanation of Wabi Sabi as it applies to the design of the Net, is in Ward Cunningham's website at C2.So, could we say that CollaborationLeadsToHalfFinishedWork?I'm dying to know how that article got to talking about WabiSabi!For instance, when bread is baked some parts are split at the surface, and these parts which thus open, and have a certain fashion contrary to the purpose of the baker's art, are beautiful in a manner, and in a peculiar way excite a desire for eating.And again, figs, when they are quite ripe, gape open; and in the ripe olives the very circumstance of their being near to rottenness adds a peculiar beauty to the fruit.ThisTooShallPassAway, and the biblical BookOfEcclesiastes (especially the older authorised version, with the Elizabethan English).Or am I way off the mark?But ThisTooShallPassAway and Ecclesiastes makes impermanence seem a negative when in fact it is what makes things beautiful.FrancisBacon, The Advancement of Learning, bk.Sabi on a trip through western Kansas.Somehow, perhaps due to the fact I am getting more mature I've begun to notice the subtle beauty that exists in the furrowed fields of corn, in how the yellow line on the side of the highway is never straight but winds like a slithering snake as you move faster down the road.Sabi has opened has brought a new aspect to self awareness.The tao of Zen is that our perception of reality is imperfect, because reality isn't.The tao of Zen is equally that our perception of reality is perfect, because reality is.Perfection and imperfection are both mirrors of our minds; as aspects of Yin and Yang, neither can exist without the other.You think perfection and imperfection exist objectively in physical reality, rather than in our minds?I'm sorry if my attempt at cynical humor offended anyone.That's correct, especially when Eastern philosophy is the topic, because it is about some things that are simply not part of the Western traditions (unless one studies Western philosophy deeply, then one finds traces of similarities in places, e.BTW to be a little more specific, some core things in Zen and Taoism concern things of an experiential nature, rather than of an intellectual nature as is more common in Western philosophy; that's a very deep divergence, and one that must be explored in part experientially rather than solely by pondering and deducing, else the point is missed.Making fun of these traditions as nothing but a bunch of foolishness is a sign of missing the point.It all depends seems to be a reoccuring theme in Zen.That's what probably trips up us western thinkers.KantReadKant) I really don't have any trouble with that, because it brings us back on topic.If the undecidable nature of Zen is a fault to westerners, it is its beauty to easterners.The gripping hand reference brought to mind a speculative story (WikiGnomes: I dare you to find it!Every instance of a manufactured product was required to have an obvious, unique, but benign blemish.Islamic rug makers introduce a slight imperfection into each rug, so as not to affront Allah, the only true perfection.The same is said about things made by the Shakers.In both cases, though, isn't it a tiny bit arrogant to believe that the only imperfection is the one you introduce?Not nearly as arrogant as to believe that, unless you have introduced an imperfection there are none.True, however introducing intentional faults does take the pressure off.How about *amplifying* the imperfection?Just before coming here I read WikiGnomePoem.Sabi: a Rousseauvian ideal of primitivism, and childlike spontaneity, derived from Japan's Oedipal fascination with Korea.Sabi seems to me to be the absolute worst possible design aesthetic for a programming language.Sabi, the beauty of age, is also damaging to programming languages.The changing tides of technology make the tradeoffs of the past less valuable and rate of BitRot is not proportional to quality like rate of physical rot is for physical objects.Attempting to WabiSabi a programming language would get you something inconsistent and kludged together like COBOL or C++.Japanese beauty and it "occupies roughly the same position in the Japanese pantheon of aesthetic values as do the Greek ideals of beauty and perfection in the West."
