Exploring ancient alphabets through a letterist lens, which is one of the goals of the “Segment” series, eventually leads to the point where the letter itself is taken ad absurdum. Fortuitously, I reached that stage just as I turned back to re-reading some egoist and individualist anarchist literature, which has led to this meditation on the extent to which ‘intelligibility’ is a goal worth pursuing, and if so, to what extent.
