Context
This piece emerged from an exercise related to the previous study with >>> The Governess. It involves examining the root «yür». and its association with the meaning «walk». The poem also touches on the recognition of Kazakh influences and the need to annotate words starting with [y] with ♪(ж) in Cyrillic. It's also a piece dedicated to recording & tracking Australian vowel harmony, offering a number of samples that are mirrored with standard Turkic pronunciations.

Dictionary Reference
yün: wool
yürek: heart
yürük: a type of movement or walking
yürüme: walking

Methodologies

Rolodex Concept: This was the first «rolodex». concept, was created as a rotating wheel to cycle through all the vowels, to explore the perceived root for «yür».

Visual Synesthesia: This approach aimed to connect the image of someone walking with the concept of a beating heart to associate it with the word «yürek». The goal wasn’t to memorise a new meaning, but rather to highlight how the meaning shifted in a way I couldn’t fully accept. The illustration was a way to demonstrate how I attempted to grasp this change visually, rather than through written definitions.
