Alphanet

 

Interstice

 

Alphanet is a sequence of letters rendered, compressed, and extruded, ultimately coming to resemble overlapping bunches of nerves and dendrites. Studies on vocal learning and pain both indicate that the subtle chemical and electrical circuits of the brain are “rewired” as a response to stimuli. Overlap of the wiring gives potential for disparate experiences to commingle, percolating unsual combinations or perspectives, allowing broadly variegated arrays of consciousness that can inform and propel language.
