the analysis of noticing-not noticing something is psychological in its basis: say you are in a bus if you are in a certain mood mode you will not notice anybody but if something disrupts and scratches through your attention you will notice : a that guy is with the beard that lady is with the bags in her hands
the same with relationships
when you are in love enamoured with somebody you don't notice (or if you have that brain you will but pass off) the little imperfections when the relationship breaks down you notice them ( and they become big)
the same with a tv presenter (or an actor)
when they are in tune with themselves you are all focused upon it on them
when they lose that in-tuneness lose their concentration the focus falls on the background on their clothing on the speckles on their face
(and the production manager or edit-manager or what's his name the person who switches with camera is to be viewed
is quick to notice
or sometimes they don't or they won't change the camera
and the situation becomes awkward you will be forced to tun your attention somewhere else change the channel talk to the person next of you or something
when you like a given singer you are not bothered by the little imperfections in their voice or the false notes they produce

what's the thing that breaks in the other person that makes the relationship breakdown?
in an equipment that is visible easily
a hair dryer breaks down because a pin somewhere broke
some people call that then a piece of garbage or a "piece of crap" some will call it a-non-working-hair-dyer
of course if you don't get a scrap of how things work you will not know you will simply declare the thing doesn't work
now there must be pin in a person that breaks down for the whole relationship to them to break down
it's the un-in-tuness as a general principle but can we locate and make visible the pin?
if you are in a bus the whole world may broken down around you and you could still be immune to it
a slight hair may move and your attention is disrupted
now we get into psychology territory what you expect to hear /see and what you expect to avoid
humans are a lot more complicated "machines" and we don't know whether they are complete in and of themselves so it's harder to locate the pin
it may be even a simple nerve cell that dislocates or put into misuse temporarily for flip second
well then we can locate the pin to a fine grain or as fine grain as we can
is that our whole purpose?
is that still a hair dryer?
different people will answer differently
in its absolute sense it's not because it's not a complete working hairdryer
part of it is missing that pin has broken into two or has been misplaced been gotten of the hook
it has become a mere thing according to heidegger's approach which is not far from commonsense
"give me that thing" or "throw that thing to the garbage"
thus from equipment has been demoted to thing
(the greek poet Solomos wrote in 19th century (loose translation):
poor dark rifle
I have you in my hand
you've become a burden to me
and the opponent knows it
[έρμο ντουφέκι σκοτεινό
που σ' έχω δω στο χέρι
όπου συ μού 'γινες βαρύ
κι ο αγαρηνός το ξέρει]
(anything that we can't use (for the purpose it was created for) when needed (broken relationship?) becomes a burden))
we are talking of a change in nature of thing equipment to thing
can you restore it? yes
to its initial working or to a different working
that's not because it by itself changed itself
but because you intervened and changed its structure and possibly its function/working
thus a man-made object cannot change (by itself) can only be changed, by its master
I don't know what is hidden in a hammer
maybe the umbilical cord that connects it to the great-beyond
the great-darkness that we came from
then we have the self-modifying machine ( i remember the self-modifying programs in LISP)
we supply them a logic and they can choose from a range of possibilities
did they invent their logic of their own?
the master supplied the logic (and if they do 'invent' logic, that is based on the seed already provided to them - so the question leads to the usual question "who started first")
sometimes the relationship wears down
as with equipment
and reveals the nothingness that exists under it
no relation is complete to an absoluteness
none that we can prove in our limited time
some relationships have some strong hooks (a couple of them) that keep them in place and intact
despite the turbulence and the disruptions
some are just kept there for reasons of nothing else to do
like the hairdryer that you keep lying there because you can't feel to throw it away
in some cases this develops into a facile relationship (some may call it fetish-ization but it may go beyond that)
but in any case it's a non-working thing
your relationship to it may still work (exist) at some facile level
]
of course when the presenter is head on there is no choice but to show her
and the presenter is less likely to be disrupted as there are no others in the discussion
but it can happen the flow of text doesn't fit them well or the card guy makes the eyes on them
the attention can be disrupted at any moment so out intuneness with our selves is constantly threatened to be broken
then we have to switch to a different mode / mood
if we are successful at doing that (it happens automatically with most people)
otherwise we will be picked on by the others "is everything ok???"
