One Word

Overview

One Word is a series from Neural Nets and Pretty Patterns, based on semantic satiation. We all know the experience, even if we don't know the words. It's when you repeat a word over and over until it seems to mean nothing at all. If you're unfamiliar with that, you can try it right now. Take the word "patterns." You can just repeat it until you know what I mean. Thought becomes pure vibe as the signal transmutes. In One Word, voices repeat the one word. A spoken word track narrates the experience, even as meaning fuzzes. The voice guides the transformation of sound from cognitive meaning to associative feeling.
