Anatomy of Memory and States of Being – Lili’s Diary

Autumn: The Encounter Between the Child Lili and the Lili of Today

Once upon a time, on an autumn afternoon at the end of the garden, where the fallen leaves already reached the knee, there crouched a little girl, Lili. She curls up like a chestnut in its spiky shell, shuts her eyes tight and rattles off a murmur, the spell that makes the grown-ups vanish, the shouting fade, the house become a house again.

I kneel beside her. The leaves crunch, and so do my knees. I say nothing, I just stay. Then I reach out and grab a handful of leaves, so she can feel that someone is here. Her hair smells of smoke, her coat sleeves are too short, her palm is as cold as autumn water.

I pull her close. At first she stiffens, then suddenly goes soft, like someone who has waited a long time for this. She presses her forehead to my neck, where the skin is thinnest. Somewhere in the neighbour’s garden a fire is burning, the smoke is sweet, and the last ray of the day runs across the rusty trees.

“You don’t need the spell anymore,” I whisper.

She opens her eyes. For a moment she just looks, then bursts out laughing. Well yes, here comes the silly woman who would save the world with a handful of leaves. I let her laugh.

Lili’s Diary – György Németh Literature, Szingy Books

Lili’s Diary

The afternoon light is lazy by now. It stretches across the wall, the curtain, my hand. The tea cools on the windowsill, next to a chestnut I brought home in my pocket like a treasure. Outside a crow is arguing with the wind. I just sit in the rhythm of it, with no plan and no reproach in me. Autumn teaches that slow can be beautiful too. The sun goes down, and I don’t even care what comes after.

“To smell the fallen leaves. That’s a drug.” Lili’s Diary

As I gather my early manuscripts and reread the pages of Lili’s Diary, I find myself once again immersed in this unmistakable, early voice.

Lili did not write to craft ornate sentences. She wrote to endure. To ensure that the fog, the chill, the sudden sunbeam, the mud, the rickety pier, and the small, sheet-wide joys of life would not wash away without a trace.

“And the Sun is shining, good lord! And the air is lukewarm, warm; I watch the trees arching over my head, drifting back with a gentle jolt as I step. And tiny leaves, birds, butterflies spin down from them... I like it, I laugh: here comes the foolish woman. This is actually sexy; this is actually funny.”

Lili’s Diary is gradually taking shape as a book within the Szingy Books workshop. It will feature no grand resolutions, no moral lessons. Only presence.

How does it feel for you when the sun unexpectedly breaks through the fog?

György Németh – Lili’s Diary (Anatomy of Memory and States of Being)

When an author returns to early manuscripts, the intent is often not to rewrite them, but to preserve their untouched purity. György Németh’s (Szigetingy) upcoming volume, Lili’s Diary, represents such an untouched text.

While the author’s later essays and prose works sit at the intersection of philosophical discipline and visual arts, Lili’s Diary reveals the most ordinary, yet most hidden layers of human existence.

The Internal Mosaics of the Diary:

Seasons and Time Passing Through the Body: The melancholy of sunless days that turns to childlike joy in a single moment as the canopy of leaves arches overhead.

Wry Self-Irony: A forgiving confrontation with female social roles, fears, and expectations (“all things considered, I feel completely different in my skin than I used to”).

The Material World and Nature’s Texture: A rickety wooden terrace, lakeside mud clinging to shoes, the convex trembling of the water, and a round, cotton-candy peace.

Lili’s Diary is not a chronological account. It does not seek to explain life, but to capture its density.

Currently in preparation under Szingy Books, this diary-book speaks to readers who seek not rapid plotlines, but slow, arresting moments of stillness.

The Szigetingy Emblem

The Szigetingy emblem is the organic fusion of the infinity symbol and a glowing lightbulb.

Infinity evokes continuous, unhurried presence and intellectual continuity, while the lightbulb represents inner illumination, conscious attention, and the clarifying power of thought. Together they precisely express the essence of Szigetingy: a deep, living, non-commercial way of thinking that arises from silence and attention, and that preserves the weight of human presence even amid digital noise. This emblem is not decoration, but a visual distillation of the Szigetingy phenomenon – the unity of infinite presence and intellectual light.

The Szigetingy Phenomenon: Synthesis in an Age of Noise 

In the accelerated digital landscape of the 21st century, where algorithmic speed often overwhelms reflection, inner stillness and focused presence become vital acts of intellectual autonomy. 

Szigetingy is neither a corporate strategy nor a mere artistic pseudonym. It represents a lived philosophy – an organic synthesis of creative practice and intellectual discipline. 

The emblem of the Szigetingy brand – the infinity knot illuminated by the spark of thought – embodies a clear commitment: even in the generative age, human dignity, critical thinking, and conscious presence remain paramount.

György Németh (PharmD) is an independent thinker, visual artist, and the founder of Szingy Gallery Budapest. His career and intellectual horizon have uniquely evolved at the intersection of scientific precision, visual arts, and contemporary philosophical depth. A central part of his creative practice involves photographic notes, digital painting, and formal experiments with imagined imagery, all deeply infused with reflections on human presence, silence, and the passage of time. In his writings and creative projects, Németh focuses closely on the preservation of human autonomy, the conscious filtering of digital noise, and the ethical-aesthetic questions surrounding human-machine symbiosis. As the creator of the Szigetingy Philosophy, he regards creative alliance, focused presence, and non-commercial value creation as his core intellectual foundation.

The Synthesized Presence is the author's first comprehensive collection of essays, serving as the inaugural release from the Szingy Books intellectual workshop. Originally written in Hungarian, this volume – along with the author’s upcoming works – is translated into English using BookTranslator ai to bridge languages and connect with a global audience. The volume stands as an open invitation to dialogue and the building of a conscious creative community.

György Németh: The Synthesized Presence

The symbiosis of intellectual autonomy, human creation, and AI

1.2. The compulsion for superficial reaction vs. the lack of deep understanding

We live in noise. Information, the flood of algorithm-generated content, and external expectations exert pressure on us day after day to a degree that almost imperceptibly erodes the individual's inner autonomy. The contemporary digital environment demands not merely presence but immediate reaction, continuous opinion-forming, automatic responses to stimuli, and self-evaluation built on external feedback, likes, or statistics.

In this constant state of readiness, preserving independence is no longer merely a selectable aesthetic stance but an intellectual and mental hygiene necessity. The main driving force behind the intellectual antecedents of this book and my own inner path-finding was the recognition that if a person does not build their own intellectual defenses and articulate their own inner priorities, the outside world and algorithms will formulate them instead.

Intellectual independence in today's world does not mean the complete exclusion of information, but the art of selective presence. This awareness manifests on three fundamental levels:

•
Rigorous filtering of stimuli: Consciously choosing what may enter our inner intellectual sphere and what is noise that must be firmly kept out.

•
The right to slow down: Retaining and embracing the right to slow down processes in an environment that may regard continuous acceleration as the only valid direction of progress.

•
Non-commercial value creation: Preserving the joy of pure creation, free from the market and external pressures to conform, in a world that wants to convert everything into a commodity and a performance metric.

Note on the English Edition:

The Synthesized Presence was originally written in Hungarian by György Németh and translated into English using BookTranslator.ai.
