The Faun's Cornucopia A Field Guide to The Faun: What is a faun? A faun is a tripenetrator of the imaginative aperture. Let this definition caution the curious who approach the faun's territory of margin; clinch now or forever hold your peace. If, contrarily, you wish to share an aesthetic intimacy, I would advise you to relax and enjoy the ride. Penetration has and always will happen to you, or through you, as you perform it, so you might as well make an art of it. Why tri? If the theory that there cannot be too much of a good thing does not overwhelm you, consider the penetrative potential of an overlap between god, human, and animal. Such a creature exceeds the boundaries of the individual anything, challenging the limits of imagination. And in that sense every identification of a faun is peculiarly personal, even when two or more devotees agree on generalities. Rather than pretend, as some shameless texts do, to be comprehensive, this guide favors the vision known to its author. That vision is admitted as imaginary, and so should offer no offense to those whose imaginations dance to a different pipe. ( a new work in progress )
