RETURNABILITYWayward thoughts
Just some passing thoughts that may or may not sometime be developed.
Truth is the result of the process of modernization.
Truth changes as discourse changes therefore with a discourse based on hypertext truth has multiple endings.
'
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world'.
Yeats
Spiritual truths, once the domain of particular religions, have entered multidimensional levels of existence. No one particular religious movement can say they are the truth and the way in a multi-media hypertextual framework.
Taking this into a new-age astrological mode where the belief in astrological cycles as a determinable force in evolutionary history is deemed possible hypertextual pathways surely would be the Aquarian way.
HYPERTEXT
TO CONSIDER
The signifying process
Functions of expression
Functions of content
How it is metalinguistic
Within semiotic
The signifying process
semiotic, symbolic, and significance
Hypertext as postmodern as post-structural deconstructionlism
As mumble-jumble. The ultimate escape from Face to face dialogue.
Will hypertext begin the re-invention of language?
Can a piece of text now have its meaning changed by the viewer? For example flashing words when the computer is stopped produced set words are those set words those of the computer, the author or the reader.
Example
The answer was blowing in the wind
The wind was blowing in the answer
In the blowing wind was the answer
The blowing wind was in the answer
In the answer was the blowing wind
