Summary notes, that used to live on not-so-floppy disks & occupy the A drive. It keeps shooting directly towards the first zip drives, that were functioning as the early bridges between the arrogant PC vs MAC wars, the same way that Pantone was worshiped as somebody's god. Companies started to reveal what cheapskates they were by requesting skills in freebieware. What's the point of standards, when they keep cascading like crashing dominos ...or poorly built appartments?

There was regret about deleting a file about cities. Perhaps I'll get lucky by running into another backup of another backup's backup. It was a relief to finish processing this particular stream of data. I don't really miss it because it's been assimilated here.

It was very difficult to tackle the competing rhythm-scapes, however - the spoken word did a good job of showing how there was more than one stream to manage. It captured the process of trying to fish for it, which is a part of the learning process that's needed to achieve calibration with other-rhythms & cadences that are so far gone, that's [how|why] they became unreachable. Some will be able to connect, just because of the ability to recognise the pattern linked with syncopation.

 

TRANSCRIPT:

kendi göz'lərinə işç'in ayna'sız,
without any mirrors for your own eyes,

kör'lәri sorğu'sorgusuraqtar beɉәr'emedilәr
they failed to question the blind ones.

kədər'lənməyə nə vaxit, ne'de destək.
no time or support to grieve.

ϸoz'ulmuş kar'şılıklılık iddia'ları,
false claims of broken mutuality,

ϸir'liyin ol'duğunu zan'dılar.
they assumed there was a legitimate union.

utan'dıran kollaj'ın iç'inde
within the shaming collage,

ӧteki diğer'lerinin iz'ləri qal'dı
imprints of outer others remained.

dön'gelengen kar-top təhlükə'ləri tanı'xlandı,
recognised as rolling snowball threats,

hayat kal'masının alarm kurul'ması
establishment of survival alarms

kes'ilmiş kim'liğin işç'indeki çekirdәk don'uϸ qal'dı.
the core of a severed ID, remained frozen.

eski'den rahat'lık yәr'inin kimixni tanı'xtı yalan
the lie formerly known as a place of comfort,

çat'lak ve kalite'siz insan memnun'laktçıya,
into a flawed & inferior people pleaser,

at'ılan kap'ı paspas'ın derәɉe'si düş'đü.
the disowned doormat's value was discarded.
