syn·site
in dictionary terms: (noun): an entangled, non-singular locus of experience, exchange, environment, observation, objects, or relationships, crystallized in a networked space, actual or virtual, marked by simultaneity, plurality, and potentiality. (verb): the act of synchronizing or integrating multiple disparate locations or concepts into a unified, complex space. This process involves the recognition and active engagement with the overlapping, entangled realities of these sites, effectively creating a new, dynamic, and non-singular site. The usage of "site" as a verb in this context is an extension of its standard usage to refer to positioning or placing something, but here it refers to positioning or placing within a conceptual, multi-layered space.

With only a few days left before deadline, the team's bitmap artist Susan Kare started researching for the Apple logo's successor. She was browsing through a symbol dictionary when she came across the cloverleaf-like symbol, commonly used in Nordic countries as an indicator of cultural locations and places of interest [...] Kare states that it has since been told to her that the symbol had been picked for its Scandinavian usage due to its resembling the shape of a square castle with round corner towers as seen from above looking down.
