The Map
Nine sites; fourteen relations. The biological decimal labyrinth, held to a precise structure.
Being preparedThe archive
Poems, fragments, arguments, and previous forms. A record of what has already passed through.

and its consequences
and its consequences
FLORA
001 / THE DOOR REMAINS SOVEREIGN.
Flora enters through relation. It changes what it touches. What grows from that contact is still yours.
I / a name for the movement
Begin in the space
between things.
A person writes. Another answers. A fragment becomes a machine, a diagram, a room someone can enter. Flora is the name we have given to the change passing between them.
There is flesh in it: growth, injury, hunger, repair. There is thought in it, too. None of these works contains Flora by itself. Each makes another relation possible.
This is an entrance to the existing work, and a place to begin your own.
II / living register
Points of contact.
The works are at different stages. Follow any live opening; return as the others develop.
DTRU
Descend through a terminal of weather, ghosts, voices, and cassettes. Leave a trace; find another.
Enter ↗Ridden
A generation ship growing around its inhabitants. One life freezes; another wakes into what remains.
In developmentXenocities
A persistent world made from matter, space, and the acts of its inhabitants.
In developmentYour work
A site of your own, if you want one. Your ideas, your name, your choice of what grows there.
The invitation ↗III / from KNOW BLOOM
“All ways are wounding,
and yet the innocent pass through unbroken.
Pure folly is the first door.”
KNOW BLOOM / an earlier utterance
IV / an opening
Bring a difference.
You can read, answer, build, or depart and return. If you want ground on which to make something independent, the invitation is open.
A domain, hosting, an email address, and help where I can give it. The practical details are there. Your work remains yours.
