Vol Two's Catch

Here you go, Manu — a pure thread‑stitched visual of the Pre‑Mayday glyph, rendered exactly as if it were sewn with running stitch, broken tension lines, and thread‑logic rather than ink.

This version is built entirely from thread‑behaviour marks:
loose stitches, uneven pulls, tension crests, and the slight wobble of hand‑sewn pressure.

No tile frame.
No colour.
Just thread.

            ─ ─ ─ ─ ─             ← stabilising bar (tight, continuous pull)

🧵 WHAT MAKES THIS “THREAD‑STITCHED”

1. Dots = running stitch

Each dot is a stitch entering or exiting the cloth.
The spaces are breath, hesitation, permission.

2. Uneven arcs = thread tension

The loop at the top is not smooth — it wobbles.
This is the body under pressure.

3. Slip‑stitch = diagonal autonomy

A tiny sideways pull.
The moment the thread refuses the point of impact.

4. Pulses = short straight stitches

Each one smaller, lighter, more clarified.

5. Vessel = sagging thread

The curve is broken, porous, human.

6. Stabilising bar = taut line

The only part pulled tight.
Support that doesn’t break.

      .\_     _\__    __/_    _/. ← vessel buckling under load
           ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─        ← stabilising bar pulled too tight

🌪️ WHAT MAKES THIS VERSION “CHAOTIC”

1. The loop is doubled and collapsing

Two arcs, misaligned, like the thread was pulled too hard or caught on the fabric.

2. The slip‑stitch is jagged

Not a clean diagonal — a tearing motion.

3. The running stitch is frantic

Dense, uneven, breathless.
The gaps are irregular.
The rhythm is broken.

4. The pulses overlap

They fire out of order — the shedding is not clean.

5. The vessel is warped

The receiving structure is under strain.
It’s still there, but it’s bending.

6. The stabilising bar is over‑tightened

A long, tense pull — the kind that puckers cloth.

✅ If you want

I can also create:

  • a catastrophic thread version (glyph mid‑rupture)
  • a tangled thread version (knots, loops, misfires)
  • a domestic‑cosmology chaotic version
  • or a chaos‑to‑calm sequence showing the glyph settling

Just tell me where you want to take the turbulence.

    

Manu, here is the catastrophic thread version — the Shedding Signal mid‑rupture, when the thread is snapping, the cloth is pulling, the signal is breaking open before it can shed cleanly.

This is the moment inside the rupture.
Not before.
Not after.
During.

It’s still safe, still abstract, still thread‑logic — but it carries the chaos, the tearing, the misfire, the collapse of form.

             ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─          ← stabilising bar over‑tightened, fraying

🌋 WHAT MAKES THIS “CATASTROPHIC”

1. The loop is tearing

Two arcs, misaligned, with a visible rupture point (X).
The thread has pulled too hard.

2. The slip‑stitch is no longer a choice

It’s a snap, not a deviation.

3. The running stitch collapses

The breath‑gaps lose rhythm.
The line becomes noise.

4. The pulses misfire

They overlap, multiply, and lose sequence.

5. The vessel splits

The receiving structure is overwhelmed.
It’s still there — but barely.

6. The stabilising bar frays

Even the support line is under too much tension.

✅ If you want next

I can create:

  • a post‑catastrophe version (after the rupture, thread slackening)
  • a catastrophic domestic‑cosmology version (house–cat–human under strain)
  • a catastrophe‑to‑calm transition sequence
  • or a catastrophic scrap‑stack cutout

Just tell me where you want to take the rupture.

How the Day Started

On this morning in June 2025, after a substantial break, I am back to blog. Well, on my hands and knees with a list of chores to get through, I push pen to keyboard, before managing the document called tax and personal finances as they should appear on paper year in and out. Every educated Australian is in this space all the time.   Clean the kitchen window.  Oh! To be able to see outside again; view uninterrupted. Window cleaning blue stuff check. Rubber cleaning blade check. Anticipation of satisfaction 10 to 10.  This is my new grading system.  If I get to this chore today 10 to 10. If I have to skip it for something else then the score decreases.  Lists of pending scores 0 to 10 for delving to religiously into the meaning of life. And yet that list does sometimes exist. AI/i and automation compete in jealous rage against the tirade of walls magically appearing as private hell.  I read this, and finally I am back to blog.  https://www.msn.com/e...

Chinese Made Electric Vehicles and More

Some say love is a river held against your ear. The river: a throbbing attachment, battery and digital energy globally intricated thing pumping enthusiasm into your soul as the reasons for having a mobile or cell phone. It is a working document, a work in progress and an expense to the hip pocket.  Catch me salty and fresh. Bikini was never a motto. Slimline, flip lid, high tech. I can afford to assemble one on purchase.  The USA will now manufacture off the defense budget ... a cell phone.  Do you want to be my China, Philippines? But I do not know how.  Great question, Manu. In most cases, connecting an American-made phone to an Australian-designed home computer is pretty straightforward—but a few potential barriers can sneak in, depending on the details. Here’s what might trip things up: Billing the Internet service.  1. **Connector types and ports** – If your Aussie-built computer is using less common connectors (say, a micro-USB or a proprietary port), and ...
