[-empyre-] for example -
for example in the below (which I'm not claiming is particularly good) -
spam was collected in the buffer of hyperterminal, then modified through
repeated sorts, and seds (sorting and substituting - in this case,
substituting to nothing) in my unix shell account. The result is a swollen
'body' of punctuation which almost becomes legible towards the end;
further, almost all the lines are duplicated, with one or the other
containing individual lower-case letters. This makes the filtering process
visible.
The movement from inchoate to proto-language (although technically it's a
layer beneath or prior to proto-language) fascinates me; I didn't know
myself how the work would 'come out,' but eventually I worked towards a
particular direction that became manifest.
I've placed the code which operated on the buffer after the piece - the
'seds' substitute the first part of the expression (for example [A-Z] -
which means any capital letter) for the second (for example // - which
means just close up the text at that point).
Hope this helps - Alan
