syn·site

sin.sīt
noun, verb

in pseudoscientific terms: A dynamic phenomenon which manifests in the compounding reconfiguration of fragments from selves, sites, and associations. It activates at the intersection of disparate elements, forming a crystallized, collaborative consciousness akin to a superposition state in quantum mechanics, where the specific and the abstract, the internal and external, the actual and the virtual, the organic and the synthetic exist simultaneously.

The matador is gored, the real jumps out and punctures the screen or strip of film, destroying it. . . . The challenge isn’t to depict this real realistically, or even ‘well’, but to approach it in the full knowledge that, like some roving black hole, it represents (though that’s not the right word anymore) the point at which the writing’s entire project crumples and implodes.

one continuous self, two sides of a vivacious equation looped together in a continual narrative of daily living and human existence. The glitch splits the difference; it is a plank that passes between the two.

Exclamation points survive as tokens of the disjunction between idea and realization in that period, and their impotent evocation redeems them in memory: a desperate written gesture that yearns in vain to transcend language.
