Krypto

“Well, this is Krypton. Nobody knows what the people on Krypton look like. What if we look like bagels, but I’m going to make my son look like a human because that’s where I’m sending him – to Earth – but everybody else on Krypton looks like bagels. That would really be original.” – Marlon […]

liturgy Fashion became one of the most visible externalizations of this inner Ω-o realignment. When the sacred shifted from the cathedral to the concert stage, from theology to affective truth, clothing was no longer just social code—it became ontology in fabric. The body itself became a site of resonance, and fashion became the visual register […]

Autism

Bandwidth Recent neuroscientific studies have revealed that children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often exhibit increased brain volume and heightened neural connectivity compared to typically developing peers. Functional and structural imaging techniques, such as diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and resting-state fMRI, have shown that autistic brains frequently present with hyperconnectivity, particularly in local neural circuits. […]

What is this jest in majesty? This ass in passion? How do God and Devil combine to form a live dog? If told I am a bad poet, I smile; but if told I am a poor scholar, I reach for my heaviest dictionary. I feel a kind of gentle development, an uncurling inside, and […]

This chart shows how different kinds of physical systems behave depending on how many parts they have and how simple or complex their rules are. The horizontal axis goes from systems with just one variable to ones with many or even infinitely many, like fluids or fields. The vertical axis shows how linear or nonlinear […]
