# "SCOTOMAVILLE 01.10 - Creating Silence REFLECTION" and What It Teaches Asxer Owners About Blind Spots

On 2022-08-19, Daniel Comp published "SCOTOMAVILLE 01.10 - Creating Silence REFLECTION" on YouTube. GB places it in Mission 2, Scotomas: Seeing What You Haven't Seen, one of five missions in the whole-library reading What 13 Years of Video Says to SI.

## What the video shows

Daniel recalls losing his ability to listen each time he cycled into an urban core and offers the remedy: "take the time, go to where it's quiet, listen, look for the scotoma." Sometimes that means waiting 72 hours. Silence becomes a tool for finding blind spots.

> take the time, go to where it's quiet, listen, look for the scotoma.

> More accurately it’s my reflection back on noise — on the awareness of the lack of awareness.

From the YouTube description: Noise pollution, unending mental interference, and constant demands for your attention will shut down your listening capacity, and leave you confused, aimless, and weary. ([full description on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1RB52HRKWU))

## The asxer angle

An asxer gives an owner the same practice in a new form. Because it answers from what the owner has actually written and recorded, the owner can ask it what they have said before and notice what they keep missing. Re-watching yourself is still the method; the asxer just makes the archive easy to search.

In the books: Trilogy 01.10.
