Semiotic Splatter ii http://www.alansondheim.org/maine268.jpg selected modes of strange attractors, opportunisms at local levels among actants whose boundaries are problematic, fissures, fractured economies, local competitions. reading the theory of Semiotic Splatter i (unnumbered in my lifetime), it becomes apparent that TAZ - temporary autonomous zones - are in continuous process of formation, information, deformation, deconstruction - that such processes are found universally in 'nature' (such as it is, unmanaged, managed, unmanaged, evanescent and uncanny), that totalities (on the scale of language, culture, organism) weaken, transform into distributions. so here we are, here we are not. http://www.alansondheim.org/current.mp4 here we are, here we are knot. http://www.alansondheim.org/maine227.jpg here we are, here we are not knot. http://www.alansondheim.org/maine251.jpg modes, that like superstructures, are top-heavy, multiple, topple - groupings dependent on an influx of energy controlled within certain tolerances - energy changing faster than copings - as if always already after the structure - decomposition of the structure - one retreats to categories, kernels - one ignores an inert and indeterminate degree of sloppiness - the sick category-theoretical mathematician - network speed test reporting download speed of 1.80 mbps, upload at 0.99 mbps, network delay at 202 ms, but actually up to 1088 ms in these rough times - the sick category-theoretical mathematician - the pain in hir side, the weakening of the mind, s/he uses the term 'brain-fog' - when a paper is published, due accreditation is necessary - the network weakens - as if it were going down - calumny - traducement - resonance - splatter - calumny!
