where muffled voices throb without their names.

Emotion & Voice

Speculative meandering postulate: Evolutionary theorists use the laryngeal nearve to suggest that there is no intelligent designer because it follows a seemingly useless path from brain around the heart before returning up to reach the larnyx [ see wikipedia or dawkins dissecting a giraffe ].

Poetry might suggest that the laryngeal nerve is reaching downward for a brief proximal consultation with cardio-neurons (affect-check) before activating voice.

“In the author’s view, the projection of words into space is “the ultimate stage of writing”, the affirmation of presence within language… images [...] form an integral part of a construction in the architectural sense of the word … The exploration of the limits of meaning, the creation of semantic halos, the frequently jagged syntax attempt to render the slight fuzziness of perception as it captures reality … likes to explore genre transgression.”

empyre Digest, Vol 67, Issue 12

“The evidence now seems unmistakable:  reading extensively on the web has strong neurological consequences. To sum up this research: web reading catalyzes greater pattern recognition, increased spatial facility, and greater flexibility in noticing and responding to different information flows. It also leads to a distracted kind of reading in which (compared to print)  information is not processed as fully, remembered as long, or integrated as much into one’s existing mental schemas (held in long term memory). …  evidence suggests that the low-level activities of Web reading (clicking links, navigating websites, etc.), small as they are, nevertheless increase the cognitive load and therefore decrease the effectiveness with which information can be processed.  ”
