Summary/Abstract: The gesture of leaving a given environment/milieu or an exteriorization of "interiority" and "subjectivity" is as risky as that of suicide to understand death. Forgetting, ultimate sincerity, exaltation, deconstructive memory could be quite unexpected and unwanted forms of death by anchoring in an unknown port marked by anxiety, or eviscerating an eye, that is, restricting vision, vision and creative imagination under the tyranny of the ideas. I added three individual models. "Notebooks" are a threshold, e.g. a space for intermediation, exit or entry, or stumbling. The warning in the pavilion would sound like this: We can be guided by utopias and generous ideas, but they can degrade, becoming ideologies that lead to dystopias, nihilism, disasters, frustrations and self-frustrations, regrets. "Let's leave the door open for us," Theodor W. Adorno urges us somewhere in A Message from The Bottle, that is, to leave neither hope nor the possibility of returning to ourselves, that is, after the beautiful Romanian saying of "come to our senses", to return to our (human) nature.
