six degrees of kevin bacon

five senses, and I nominate that-which-is-called-intuition as a sixth

feels like one has instant access to any identified thing where the distance between it and one is perfectly unknown (see: ["window"](/2025/06/29/window.md)), which would suggest that the trick is to get outside of all six degrees of knowing without losing focus

the entropic force will eventually unseat you (cosmic tillage), because you've got to be functionally useful to something, all existence is relational, buuuut I think you can become useful *to your own ends* by unseating yourself manually while holding a target in your sights: you draw something new into the network of being, and serve as its bridgekeeper, offering welcome

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.isaacbowen.com/2025/06/30/find.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
