Subject: script with stupid question
Date: Tue, 19 Dec 2006 14:23:58 -0500 (EST)
script with stupid question is this a found script or one i created? does it really matter? given the relatively small number of symbols, it would be reasonable to apply coding to it - a matrix/template that might slide across the apparent grid, producing meaning. one might think of this as a _universal machine_ applicable to texts of any length; it becomes increasingly evident that meaning is a construct _across_ symbols, neither within them nor within the dictionary translation / transliterations. here, in this example, only in this particular example, one has a section of what seems to be an _infinite text,_ a text in the manner of a bandage or suture across the wound of a sememe (what reads as a sememe); a wound within, unconstrued within, the imaginary. think of this as the _lid_ of the _pre-linguistic_ - not exactly mode, but a potential for interpreta- tion, sliding out and against itself, as soon as one is found. nothing holds here, not even "here," not even place or placement. the lesson, where we are, where we are not, is always already unlearned. posted by alan @ 11:08 AM 0 Comments Links to this post italics and script at http://nikuko.blogspot.com script at http://www.asondheim.org/script.jpg
