Banners
When the wind picks up the banners flutter.
There's two vectors to explore on this theme: Word pairs and banner forms. Of course there's also the potential to integrate the two approaches, and perhaps this would be the most interesting.
- Word pairs assumes that words are never cognitively fixed without a context. By pairing words we provide that context. However, by creating a strong of words, each of which are linked to the word preceding and following we create a cognitive dissonance. Eg: flower - pot - smoke - stack
- Banner forms suggests forming the banners to resemble a recognizable shape such as a flower, a person, etc.
There is a body of work that I gave to Scott Spector some years ago along this theme and I'd like to get images of that.
Banners are a theme that I explored in the eighties and early nineties with some interesting results. There may be some more milage on this idea now that my approach to writing has matured.
