ABSTRACT

How interesting. The moment when something is about to begin is so intriguing. Here and there is a shimmering sea of superimposed multiple potentialities. The realm of the possible is seemingly chaotic and formless, yet it is filled with patterns of meaning, various patterns that are juxtaposed and meshed into a protobiotic mixture. The challenge is to identify a pattern, then this pattern takes on a life of its own, gradually emerging from obscurity, out of the background, dragging behind itself yet other patterns. The chain of these patterns is not necessarily linear. Connections and relations can break and shift, so the patterns can be manipulated and rearranged into this story or that. This story never was, yet always existed; it existed everywhere and nowhere, in potentiality, in a virtual form; it waited to be recognized and actualized into words.
