An Incomplete Thought
There’s a sentence in this week’s reading (middle of Page 87), “The ever unfolding sequences move toward increasing dimensionalization: the multiple pronouncing of what has been recorded.” This reminds me of another sentence, in the previous unit, where we studied how … Continue reading
