A human being is a complex embodied expression at the intersection of multiple distinct logics, each converging in a magnificent bundle of perpetual potentiality. Affective, energetic, and relational capacities attend our being, as sentient, learning organisms alive in a context more diverse than our capacity to name. We are ecosystems, neurology, and animacy all wrapped into conscious experience and potent dynamism. This biological encasement gives rise to an agentic power that enables us to craft, shape, and endure otherwise impossible worlds, or to unilaterally collapse them. In this thin space between mortality and generativity, sweet vulnerability, we may create, do, and become beyond what was deemed possible.
