Among the coral labyrinths where daylight dissolves,the Emberfin Drifter glows with its own remembrance of the sun.Its scales absorb the warmth of the upper waters,storing light like embers beneath translucent skin. By night it releases this stored fire,illuminating reefs with dim crimson halos,drawing plankton and the smaller feeders who follow them. When startled, it flares … Continue reading VI. The Emberfin Drifter & Coda
24. One Thousand and One Nights (Arabic/Persian/Egyptian)
The Nights is a narrative lattice of nested propagators—stories within stories act as successive Green’s functions that regulate social anxieties, entertain, and transmit norms. Scheherazade’s storytelling is a temporally extended operation: by continually altering the phases of narrative expectation, she prevents execution (annihilation) and shifts the royal vacuum to one where mercy emerges. Each tale … Continue reading 24. One Thousand and One Nights (Arabic/Persian/Egyptian)
V. The Groovestripe Bassoid
Dwelling in the quiet trenches,the Groovestripe Bassoid bears along its sidesa series of deep, carved furrows —grooves that hum as the creature moves through the water.The passing current sets these striations singing,producing a continuous tone that carries for miles through the abyss. Those who have descended to listen describe vast choirs of such fish,their voices … Continue reading V. The Groovestripe Bassoid
23. Kalila wa Dimna — Ibn al-Muqaffaʿ (Persia → Arabic)
This fable collection behaves like a set of pedagogical operators: allegories that act as low-energy effective interactions teaching statecraft, prudence, and moral heuristics. Animals here are fermionic proxies for human agents, enabling safe experimentation in moral parameter space. Each tale performs a controlled scattering experiment in which principles of governance and virtue are tested against … Continue reading 23. Kalila wa Dimna — Ibn al-Muqaffaʿ (Persia → Arabic)
IV. The Lureback Pairfish
Among the most perplexing of the paired species, the Lureback Pairfish exists in continuous duet.The smaller, delicate “front” body drifts near the surface,fluttering like a lure or fragment of light,while its heavier counterpart swims below,joined by invisible strands of living nerve. When the lure-half is seized — whether by predator or hook —the larger body … Continue reading IV. The Lureback Pairfish
22. The Qur’an (Arabic sacred text)
Treated metaphorically as a foundational field, the Qur’an acts as the primary Higgs-like background in Islamic cultures—its textual presence endows communities with a shared identity-mass, governs permitted transformations, and supplies immutable selection rules. Its verses are operators altering behavior, ritual, and law; recitation is a bosonic process transmitting divine coupling directly into hearts. The Qur’an’s … Continue reading 22. The Qur’an (Arabic sacred text)
III. The Golden Netfish
Next comes the Golden Netfish, a creature of expansion and retreat.In its first state, it is compact — a glimmering knot of sinew and light.In its second, it unfolds into a living lattice,woven from threads so fine that water itself must bend around them. By inflating, it traps drifting particles; by exhaling, it feeds on … Continue reading III. The Golden Netfish
21. The Mu’allaqat (Pre-Islamic Arabian odes)
The Mu’allaqat function as canonical eigenmodes of early Arabic poetic culture—high-amplitude resonant forms that define aesthetic couplings. These odes are energetic excitations where tribal honor, martial valor, and pastoral connections resonate as conserved charges. Performed at major gatherings, they act as social mediators, aligning group identity and transmitting ancestral couplings. Their endurance suggests that certain … Continue reading 21. The Mu’allaqat (Pre-Islamic Arabian odes)
II. The Broomtail Fish
The first of the known species — half swiftness, half service.Its body is slender and blue, yet where a tail fin should be,there blooms a fan of soft bristles — the broom of the sea. It moves in gentle whisks,brushing plankton aside and polishing shells with quiet devotion.Mariners claim that when ships vanish from memory,it … Continue reading II. The Broomtail Fish
20. Shakuntala — Kālidāsa (Sanskrit)
Kālidāsa’s courtly romance is a delicate interaction between destiny and recognition, where memory functions as a field whose temporary removal creates a false vacuum and leads to narrative tension. Shakuntala and Dushyanta’s love bonds are coupling constants subject to the perturbation of a curse (memory loss). The eventual restoration is a spontaneous re-stabilization: the proper … Continue reading 20. Shakuntala — Kālidāsa (Sanskrit)
I The Spiral of Minds
Across the page of sea, a vast school of small red fish gathers in a slow, deliberate spiral —each body a flicker of purpose, each turn a syllable of an unseen sentence.When magnified, the individuals reveal themselves —tiny, bright, aware in motion,as if the whole were studying itself in miniature. Thus thought becomes visible:a migration … Continue reading I The Spiral of Minds
19. The Song of Roland — Anonymous
This chanson de geste is a high-energy collision of feudal honor and inevitable tragedy. Roland is a charged particle whose pride acts like an unstable field, magnifying danger until catastrophe becomes unavoidable. Oliver, more tempered, tries to mediate, but Roland’s refusal to sound the oliphant is a symmetry-breaking choice that unleashes disaster. The battle at … Continue reading 19. The Song of Roland — Anonymous
The Curious Ichthyological Order
“In the sea of remembrance, every motion leaves a pattern; and patterns, in time, learn to swim.” Beneath the reflective chambers and transmuting fields lies another realm —a quiet ocean where thought takes on fin and scale.Here, the laws of geometry soften into pulse and drift,and ideas move as schools of living color. Among these … Continue reading The Curious Ichthyological Order
18. Beowulf — Anonymous
Beowulf is a massive baryon—heroic, dense with strength—colliding with monstrous excitations at the edges of the human field. Grendel is a rogue particle born from an exiled lineage; Grendel’s mother a deeper, older force from an unseen sector. The dragon in the final act is entropy itself, the ultimate reminder that no excitation endures forever. … Continue reading 18. Beowulf — Anonymous
The Machine of Endless Notation
A layered dome, half-split like a seed revealing its kernel,inside which gears wink with violet light.A pink channel feeds into its side,drinking intention from a hidden reservoir. Between the upper mechanism and the bell,symbols drift—circles, crescents, spirals—the alphabet of motion mid-translation. A long arm extends from the machine,ending in a triangular grasp,as if plucking sense … Continue reading The Machine of Endless Notation
17. The Aeneid — Virgil
Aeneas is a particle carrying the full momentum of destiny, propelled across collapsing Trojanscape into the unformed vacuum of Italy. His journey resembles a forced trajectory through an unstable potential landscape: propelled by fate, slowed by grief, accelerated by divine interference. Love with Dido forms a temporary bound state—briefly stable, catastrophically broken when the higher … Continue reading 17. The Aeneid — Virgil
The Instruments of Divided Motion
Across the parchment, a procession of improbable tools stands like a tiny pantheon—each one an oath to movement, each one a riddle about force. The Tremor-Frame Three handles, red as startled coral,hinged to a bowed spine of polished wood.It is said that when all three are pulled at once,the earth shivers politely, remembering old … Continue reading The Instruments of Divided Motion
16. The Panchatantra (India)
As in Kalila wa Dimna, the Panchatantra’s animal fables are pedagogical operators used to test governance and prudence. across many parameter spaces. Each tale is a controlled interaction that demonstrates consequences of certain couplings—greed, cunning, laziness—allowing listeners to update their behavioral priors experimentally. Its high transferability across cultures indicates robust eigenvalues in the cultural mixing … Continue reading 16. The Panchatantra (India)
Uncluttering my hard disc, bank account, and internet profiles.
It all sounds easy, but are in fact a very arduous tasks. Many superfluous files are hidden in subdirectories that take lots of disk space (mostly called leftover files, previous concepts, drafts, etc...). I became aware of it because I started to run out of disc space while my back up, that contains all the … Continue reading Uncluttering my hard disc, bank account, and internet profiles.
The Devices of Turned Wind and Colored Bloom
This page catalogs a set of mechanical instruments designed to measure, stir, or expose the invisible qualities of air and motion. The Weighted Plume Crank:A long arm ending in a dense tuft, lowered and raised by a wheel to test vertical currents. The Centripetal Bloom Engine:Its arms spin in widening arcs, each tipped with a … Continue reading The Devices of Turned Wind and Colored Bloom
