What If ...

in their movements, speech patterns, and repetitive behaviors in aggregates, humans are essentially metrical accomplishments?

  3. Time sense curled into DNA. Or ancestral memories of other approaches to percussive/harmonic balance. Why not? Thanks for the link.

    He's always in such bad odor, but isn't it Eliot that talks about the change in poetry when horses (clop-clop) moved over for Fords (vroom!)?

  4. maybe
    tellurics at the macrogranular
    composing part of the
    selectional partial object
    ie part of the frame relay
    of indexical vectoring

    (like a plasma sphere whose
    tips are people)

    Chartres
    is supposedly built
    on a ley line
    and a single thump
    with a finger
    is said to register
    throughout, probably
    bs, but sounds cool

    and protein's vibrational
    dynamics are being looked at
    i think

    I was looking at a spiral story column tonight from the Cathedral at Hildesheim which starts to
    look alot like dna

    these sprial staffs
    are archetypal
    from caduceus to asklepios
    or the archimedian screw
    or

    'augur'

    just the function
    as a drawing up
    as an 'augury'

    I'm designing a virtual gateway
    for a class project
    using two hollow columns
    each containing an augur
    which lifts symbol spheres
    into a bingo-like selection
    manifold

    ideally
    the say 5 symbol combination
    would be parsed poetically
    somehow by an algorhythmic
    proxy

    or maybe
    the spheres
    would just
    pop into the eye-sockets
    of a medusa bust
    in the pediment

  6. The reasons why time "slows" in moments of extreme stress: this rhythm is interrupted...thrown into an existential cut-time.
