Description

This hypergraphic novel by mIEKAL aND embraces fragmentation and non-sequitur, dismantling the traditional narrative structure, crafting a world where fractured narratives are not merely a stylistic device, but the very essence of existence.

Forget the singular hero, the clear-cut villain, the predictable arc of cause and effect. Here, you’ll encounter a kaleidoscope of selves, each inhabiting a unique iteration of tomorrow. Every page becomes a fresh start, a chance to explore a new facet of a world perpetually in flux.

But why “interrupted?” The answer lies in the very nature of tomorrow. It is a concept forever out of reach, a mirage that constantly recedes as we approach. We can make plans, dream futures, but the true shape of tomorrow remains elusive, fractured by the unpredictable choices we make today. This inherent disruption, this constant state of becoming, is what “interrupted narrative” seeks to capture.

Think of it as flipping through a stack of postcards from a future that hasn’t been written yet. Each card offers a glimpse of what might be. These glimpses, these interruptions, challenge us to piece together a larger narrative, to recognize patterns and connections across the disparate fragments.

The essence of this fragmented world lies in its very resistance to a unified narrative. There are no definitive answers, no grand pronouncements about the future. Instead, we are invited to participate in the act of creation. Like mIEKAL’s other interactive works, “interrupted narrative” encourages you, the reader, to become an active participant. By flipping through the pages, by connecting the dots between seemingly disparate realities, you contribute your own voice to the chorus of possibilities.

As you delve into this hypergraphic exploration, let go of the expectation of a linear path, and face the chaos of a world teetering on the precipice of infinite tomorrows.

Now, turn the page. The adventure awaits.

*Hypergraphia is a behavioral condition characterized by the intense desire to write or draw. Forms of hypergraphia can vary in writing style and content. It is a symptom associated with temporal lobe changes in epilepsy and in Geschwind syndrome. Structures that may have an effect on hypergraphia when damaged due to temporal lobe epilepsy are the hippocampus and Wernicke’s area. Aside from temporal lobe epilepsy, chemical causes may be responsible for inducing hypergraphia.
