Abstract

Cloud & field is an exploration into the role the past has in the formation of a personal language and the subsequent role that language has on a personal belief system. It investigates the subjective interchangeability of the external and internal landscape. Having abandoned my childhood faith four or five years ago, the writing of this manuscript was an attempt to develop a new moral/belief system I could carry with me into the future. It is, therefore, also the beginning of an investigation into if and why a belief system is necessary.
