Another exercise focused on processing my frustration with the dyslexic Australian rhetoric while working on 3D explorations of the Kazakh alphabet. In this sample, Latin forms and their approximations were superimposed on Cyrillic characters. Although I don't clearly remember why Multiple Sclerosis appeared in this context, it is a recurring motif in my work, so I need to tag it for filing and future cross-referencing. While the connection to Multiple Sclerosis is specific, I can't quite pinpoint it directly at the moment. Other recurring motifs that require notation here; [wombat ceramics] & [(impolite) mushrooms].

I aimed to capture the sensation of my Türk`ish feeling like a re-animating a corpse. Reconnecting with my mother tongue felt like awakening from a long 40-year coma. Despite this reconnection, it still feels as though the state is «already dead». It's as if my corpse is still warm but hasn't quite reached the absolute bone-cold level of complete death yet. The journey continues to feels like my final dance or the last song, before reaching an ultimate end that will culminate with ~iD-ENTiTY. I'll just leave it here, for now;
