why can't he just write clearly?

>We're taking a journey right to the core of human living, where thin shards of light sit atop a deep mound of darkness, shuddering slightly with each revolutionary epoch, only to return to stability within a timeframe which– to the great slumbering eye of eternity – equates to a mere fraction of a second.

He probably just experienced his thoughts in part visually, and this was the best way to express what he was seeing.
It happens to me, most thoughts are associated with some sort of associated image flashing in my head.

Reminds me of a Cioran quote, something about how we would find darkness bearable if it weren't for the glimpses of light in the distance.

Because what he is trying to communicate cant be done with words, so he doubles down on language by just making it up as he goes, the real answer is staying silent

>we're taking a journey right to the core of human living
Could mean a couple things desu. Could be technological advancement, could be understanding consciousness and the nature of man, could be something else.
>thin shards of light sit atop a deep mound of darkness, etc.
Very few things are good about humans, but this goodness sits on top of mt. king shit [instead of buried deep within it for example]. Every major advancement will change very little in the scale of humans, and is ultimately meaningless in the grand scheme of things. Or, depending on the meaning of the first part, could mean something closer to "man is the light and darkness is the nihilistic abyss"
It's interesting to speak about advancement as if the shift were a chaos of sorts. Obviously context matters in interpretation, but I think this is a much better use of language than merely rambling on autistically about man being damned for eternity to truly mean nothing.

this tradition all comes from heidegger:
>The earlier analysis of worldliness revealed that time, showing itself as the horizon of being, essentially discloses thrown Dasein in its disclosedness, indicating the for-the-sake-of-which of innerwordly beings at hand. Truth, then, becomes clear as the constitution of untruth to which belongs the undisclosed discovery of any statement.

it's meaningless masquerading as profundity

That's a beautiful sentence. The bit at the end is in line with Nietzsche's On Truth and Lies in a Nonmoral Sense.
