Piece by piece, sec­tion by sec­tion, set­tle into a stream and ride the cur­rent, or jump around.
No right or wrong. See where intu­ition takes you, dear reader.

“In this ide­al text, the net­works are many and inter­act, with­out any of them being able to sur­pass the rest; this text is a galaxy of sig­ni­fiers, not a struc­ture of sig­ni­fieds; it has no begin­ning; it is reversible; we gain access to it by sev­er­al entrances, none of which can be author­i­ta­tive­ly declared to be the main one; the codes it mobi­lizes extend as far as the eye can reach, they are indeterminable…the sys­tem of mean­ing can take over this absolute­ly plur­al text, but their num­ber is nev­er closed, based as it is on the infin­i­ty of lan­guage.” — Roland Barthes, SZ, 1970

The act of read­ing can become an act of writ­ing. As the read­er draws mean­ing from pas­sages, they can infer pos­si­bil­i­ties poten­tial­ly unknown to the authors. When French the­o­rist Roland Barthes dif­fer­en­ti­at­ed between a read­er­ly text and a writer­ly text, he was explain­ing how nar­ra­tives can lend them­selves to interpretation.

In that open space for explo­ration, we may find our words offer­ing ideas beyond the scope of our own imag­i­na­tion. In writ­ing this cat­a­log, our desire is that each read­er will help bring forth new dis­cov­er­ies and under­stand­ings to the top­ics under consideration.
