Mind's Eye Re: Litter Art and maybe the Literarti?

The world is a noisy place, and much of what comes from the mainstream seems to be noise. I've come to a place that like speed reading, I look over and grab the essential (to the moment) and allow the rest to wash over, not attaching emotion, but feeling the flow of the stream. For me this stuff comes and goes in the course of the day and I notice but don't dwell, until the bits are recognized that can connect, for me, all the way through.  The quieter my mind, the stronger and more frequent those deep connections. But the mainstream keeps on moving. I suppose there is a state of consciousness where all is recognized with deep connection, but I am far from sustaining that 24/7 and wonder if it is possible.

I was thinking of Facil's "spaceship from 40 bits of household plastic" - perhaps even the imigongo from Rwanda made from such as cow dung.  I wonder if we could apply such techniques to the world of literature, maybe even such things as newsroom output I increasingly feel litters my life?
