syn·site

sin.sīt
noun, verb

in experimental terms: a verb-noun concatenation reflecting an active process embedded within, affecting, and affected by site. This hybridity of site calls attention to itself as a self-aware mirage in its hyphenated construct. An ever-evolving entity, it is an entangled situating conjured in approximation, constantly pulled taut, presented, released, and re-presented.
