[This essay is part of the essay series "Everything I Need to Know About HitRECord I Learned in Kindergarten" http://hitrecord.org/records/42282] Anoriginal wrote to Metaphorest: "Can I please live inside your brain? " Metaphorest responds "Hehe yes yes pile in!! There's plenty of vacuumous unused space in there :) But only if I can get a spell in your brains too - only fair!! " My commentary: Isn't that really what hitRECord is? A way we all get to live in each others brains, to some extent. I read Metaphorest's work on here, I grok it, and I feel like I got a little visit inside the uniqueness of her brain. And I use that visit to create still more, better than I could have done alone. That goes for the whole community. And then (once I've been here a while), people will hopefully like some of what I have done and play off that. This site unites us all into one gigantic collective soul that is vastly more powerful than the sum of it' s parts. The magic of hitRECord is all in the synergy. It's likely no single human being on Earth, nor even a traditional corporation with ten times the budget, could remotely approach the quality or rapidity of what grew into the final presentation that was just shown at Sundance. The difference between the hitRECord form of organization and a traditional centrally controlled organization is that of interconnectivity vs. hierarchy. Hierarchy is a minuscule subset of the richness of our fully interconnected network, and thus can never match our creative power, resource for resource. As the network grows larger, the difference in power only grows larger as well. Each human brain has a hundred billion or so neurons that all link up to each other with such vast interconnectivity that gives rise to our individual creative powers. HitRECord extends that connectivity *between* brains of some thousand people (and growing rapidly). This network of neural networks that we call hitRECord may be the single most powerful creative engine that ever existed. (Though Wikipedia harnesses a similar crowdsourcing principle for a slightly different purpose, and it has a few years on hitRECord - but look what it has built! But I strongly believe HitRECord will likely surpass that project at some point.) Next: Ch 2: Everything I Need to Know About HitRECord I Learned in Kindergarten http://hitrecord.org/records/41940 |

So there is more to Regularity in Verse? (Oh, duh, that explains the confusing "we" at the end.) Well, hope I get to see the whole thing eventually.
You're right, the word has a flowing sound, doesn't it? I'm sure there's a poem or three to be had in that sound alone....
I'm also very fond of the concept of the Collective Soul, very spiritual. I believe there is a Universal Collective Soul of all humanity, which we are tapping into a small part of here. So, a title for this little essay was never in doubt.

Oh yeah! I just love that word...the sound and the meaning...that regularity thing never migrated over properly to V4...will have to retrieve the rest from v3 if we get in someday...

Metaphorest - yes, just found the song, it's lovely. I had also noticed the word synergy earlier, in your Regularity in Verse. It's the perfect word for what we have here.
And thank you too, I always look forward with anticipation to the latest of your work as well.
