Description
Seeds asks what must already be in place for thought, perception, and relation to begin. You enter a modular and recursive text built from signals, fragments, and Morse-based structures, where rhythm and interval operate as temporal engines and silence functions as condition rather than absence. Instead of narrating experience, Seeds records executed forms-pulses, delays, repetitions-so meaning appears as a late arrival rather than a foundation. The book foregrounds emergence without origin, growth without teleology, and coherence without hierarchy, offering a media-archaeological poetics of structure that can be entered anywhere and revisited without closure.
