Zoe, this is really incredible! I went back and read all four several times. And I LOVE the images, the shift in color with each one and then this one having less distinct edges, connections blurring together.

Zoe, I like the idea and it is definitely intriguing. I think what would be helpful is something more tangible in the process... tell a story with certain details that help build the connection. Maybe because I am a visual learner, I am trying to picture this, and I think a story would help.

It is a creative, outside-the-box kind of idea, and I am guessing that readers (like me) will need a little help.

Thanks Jill! Did you read all four texts? I meant this to be a multi-text post, and the "story" emerging from this experimental format.

I know what you mean, and I'm aware it hasn't really come out the way I wanted it. I'd been thinking for some time about writing a bundle of short-form bits, inter-connected, where the idea was that the reader must go on to the next text to get to the full meaning. Anyway, I didn't have a specific story to tell here, more like a meditation, just watching how that aspiration migrated in time to a different level, suggesting that this might happen to some of our dreams, needs, aspirations. I appreciate your feedback!

Love the idea and will read again. But even something like being lost, seeing a signpost...being lost seeing a signpost... asking for direction...being lost, seeing a signpost, asking for direction, hitting a stop sign... kinda thing.

I think it's a very intriguing idea which maybe can have more "pop" but I will take a look again later. Out the door...

I like this idea of a text as a symbol for a place, a "world", a dimension. Connecting texts as an actualization of connecting worlds. Maybe this post should be the first, not the last in this sequence? An an appetizer :)

Thanks, Monika, I might have thought of that, indeed!
