== The Apt Word To write modernism is to write in voiceless voice. To write in voiceless voice is an enunciation. The enunciated is always pronounced. This is based on the apt word. Whatever I write, there is the apt word. In terms of cleverness, the reader desires this, the apt word. The apt word makes one famous, i.e. on the road to fame. Apt may be an apt word. Writing this style is always a well-honed craft. I try to procure your agreement or perhaps disagreement. My taste is apparent on the page. I am an expert in the use of words and their exactitude. More specifically, the apt words. Every phrase, every poem, is a composition. The poet works hard at the composition, every word must fit. The fit word is the apt word, both harmonious and perfect. A poet claws its way to the apt word and beyond. There is light on the other side of the apt word. The apt word must not appear contrived. Or it must appear contrived as a collusion between reader and writer. The apt word must be secretly clever. Or it must appear clever as such a collusion. It's nature, the apt word, unnoticed but graces a reputation. The audience knows the poet by the apt word. Every poet has a different approach to the apt word. And every poet has a different approach to the rest of it. But it is all carefully crafted and that is why we care about poets. And it is beautifully written and full of surprises. And that is why we care about poetry. I am serious about this, this apt word. It is a well-turned phrase that contributes to the whole. In a sense it is the whole. Love language, love the apt, advertising and poetry pick and choose. Here I am writing, searching for the perfect form. Oh there must be more to this than that, there is not. My words are perhaps not apt enough. My turns of phrase... = | an absolute burst or vertical signal in the for of + within an otherwise quiescent mode. 0/1 or Kronecker delta? onset and damping 0; at x = y of infinite +/-? this doesn't matter; give it the prominence of a spike. what happens to energy at a well-defined frequency? close in and quantum effects appear. the spike is a trigger. what is the response time? the speed, not the half-life, of particle decay? dear mathematical physicist, you see I do not know what I am talking about. I am only certain that this spike plays a role in the phenomenology of the analogic and digital. analogic as adjectival; digital the same, as discrete, binary. or such of the discrete that has a modus operandi as binary. consider the factory or configuration of the digital, its appearance as governing artifacture at a particular moment in civilization - when it is realized that the analogic may be _scanned._ but the digital is not always constructed, as the collapse of the wave equation implies. or rather it is always constructed - always an _action_ - but not necessarily an artifacture or technological production - which have teleology in mind. what are the nature/s of the spikes in very low frequency radio for example? is the (natural) digital always the result of a _collapse_? these (naive) questions are on the tip of the tongue, so to speak - an array. and dear mathematical physicist, i hope you will be able to listen to the musings of an unaffiliated artist / theorist, who is trying to get it right, but may not always succeed. analogic smear postulate the analogical from the position of the operations of the analogical. i talked about, apologizing all the while for exhaustion, the relation of the analogical to deep identity, identity all the way damental ontologies and their relationship to the analogical and identity real, the truth is messy, noisy, analogic, irreducible, fuzzy. as listerv. this analogical labelling is superficial consider the analog is atemporal and time is analogical substructure integral the body analogical body is digital substructure substructure digital is body analogical body the integral substructure to analogical print differential biological material raster is the analog is atemporal and time is analogical time. this continuous world appears analogic. any element of the analogic real is interconnected and inseparable. the inherent. the application of truth values is digital. the analogic is a membrane. the analogic is dirty, inseparable, unbreakable. the dirty analogic problematizes its symbolic. the clean digital is the digital object is analogic. the analogic representation is digital. ghosts are embedded within the analogic. ghosts are excluded from the the analogic. to erase a distinction is to corrode it, to sublimate it to the analogic analogic. the creation of a signifier re-inscribes the signified image of the image is analogic. within the analogic real there is always room for error. "one can reverse this, in a sense, considering the application of analogic analogic, it might be a fairly useless exercise. as stimulate a vigorous debate on the relationship of digital and analogic the other. to stay with the filter is to remain analogic, deeply human, (dis)interested observer but from that a music producer. the analogic is note towards a foundational phenomenology of analogic/discrete 'domains.' ving the analogic and discrete (digital), we will get nowhere. where the digital exists under the aegis of fabrication, and the analogic tends towards sharpening and the analogic the physical world collapses ( and it's in codework that the mix of analogic and discrete 'ordering,' gestalt is both surplus and reduction. the inhabiting of text is analogic, assurance of purity. beyond that, there is nothing but plasma analogic, one integrates the digital to arrive at the analogic, but to begin with the analogic? to differentiate it? this might map, but then there is still perhaps i bring in libido (dionysian, analogic) and superego (apollonian, she smears to decomposing doll, the heart rate monitor freezes and she is sounds ! one who is clad in the hide of an elephant ! one who is besmeared where clara might go, smeared with shit, piss, and cum, mixing with the lag killed it. i can't think anymore. time zero is time smeared. oh, oh!

In English, the number words are unary, however. However, and this relates to issues of analog/digital (which I continue of course to pursue), there are three 'speakings' of number, dependent on use: 1. 2118 = "two thousand, one hundred and eighteen" - indicative of _quantity._ For example: "There are two thousand, one hundred and eighteen bison on the island." Note the comma and connective may be omitted: "There are two thousand one hundred eighteen bison on the island." Think of this as the _indexical._ 2. 2118 - "twenty-one eighteen" - indicative of date (within a serial / linear construct). This is number as _sign._ For example: "In the year twenty-one eighteen, all large mammals, except for humans, will either be extinct or corralled." Note "twenty-one eighteen" is almost never written out as such; the usual expression would be "In the year 2118, all large mammals, except for humans, will either be extinct or corralled." Think of this as the _symbolic._ 3. 2118 - "two one one eight" - indicative of _identification_ For example: "I live at two one one eight Western Boulevard, near the Monument of Extinctions." Phone numbers and other identifications (credit card, social security) are usually spoken in this fashion. Think of this as the _ikonic._ In ikonic identification, quantity and seriality are irrelevant. The number is neither cardinal nor ordinal. In symbolic seriality, identification is based on quantity, only in the sense that quantity defines positionality; this is ordinal, not cardinal. In indexical quantity, identification and seriality are weakened; the quantity of bison (for the most part alone) is relevant. The number is cardinal. I am stretching Peirce's notion of signs here. Nevertheless, there is some hint of value on the horizon. Number trifurcates in the speaking; the specificity of 3 portends the specificity of the discrete, for example. What happens with decimals? Almost always, they are indicative of quantity, although one can imagine an identification number of the form, for example, "21.2.1.96" - which would be read "twenty-one point two point one point ninety-six." If the form is standard, one might eliminate the "point" as in "twenty-one two one ninety-six." If the numbers are more than two or three digits, for example "2134.9121.1." - the most likely speaking would be "two one three four point nine one two one point one." Telephone numbers of the form "(718)555-1235" are of this type, with the punctuation omitted: "seven one eight [pause] five five five [pause] one two three five." There are exceptions to all of these; I am concerned, however, with a general trend, at least in one language.
