void communication

“The Void in Communication
Meaning Nothing Means Everything

Hysterically initiating chains of significance I aim to potentiate infinite meaning.  I perpetually introduce new elements into radiating rings of meaning, connecting circuits, complicating networks, catalyzing feedback.  Paranoiacs may take comfort in the assumption that significance is not what it appears. Unable to conceive of the one, the paranoid will not reconcile these interminable interpretations in order to reduce the amalgamation of words, signs, and symbols to a single interpretation– through eternal multiplicity, meaning is void. Each attempt to communicate is filtered through a void.  Meaning is reduced to nothing then inflated into ambiguity.  Fragments of language–sound, image, text– depart from the origin of intent and are stripped of specificity in a void, a vacuum of instability.  In this void the significance of the original transmission is generalized, its potentiality expanded, and ultimately received as a perceptual interpretation.  The void in communication enables an illusion of mutual understanding.  We must nurture the delusion of human connection facilitated by this portal of communication.  Only through our participation, can the entropy of the void be neutralized.  We must perpetuate this system by exponentially and objectively ambiguating future interfaces– transmission and reception functioning to cultivate the futility of mutual understanding.  We must put an end to our failure to communicate with each other through the void.  Let us begin now to utilize our opportunities for interaction with each other to enrich, to celebrate our awareness of this void, the omniscient entity.  The void is communication.”
