Here, we begin, again, to weave an [[analogy]] to wiki at the nexus of two lines. Neurobiologists draw a spatial line: a longitudinal fissure between right/left hemispheres of the brain, rendering what [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timothy_leary Timothy Leary|Timothy] and Joanna Leary call, in Neurologics, a prison writing put to paper in 1973 but finding wider distribution on the web today, the "dexterous" hemisphere and the "silent" hemisphere. The Learys effectively superpose an attractor/oscillator model over this bi-lateral physiology, arguing that "nature, while extravagant in experiment, is always parsimonious in structural efficiency and would hardly have designed the most complex of its biological constructions--the human brain--so that half of its neural potentialities remain unconscious and unused" (IV-4). When the Learys posit our ability to make new connections and mixtures across hemispheres, they introduce another bright line, this time, a passage in the evolutionary and temporal sequence of neurological development, the threshold between "space consciousness" and "time consciousness." It is important to note that many empirical neurological metamorphosis techniques (rhetorics, yogas, and other means for altering and sharing forms of consciousness) emerge at this nexus (point? intersection?), between the 4th and 5th degrees of difference on a scale of eight, a degree of difference that emerges between the physiological symmetry of the brain. Weaving the warp of these lines to the woof of writing: what a wiki does.

''While "the first four imprints are concerned with the mastery of space," advanced imprinting develops a focus on "time imprints and time conditionings," which "involve new categories and dimensions." Likewise, from the perspective of the information adept with no direct experience and rehearsal with the metamorphoses concomitant to rhythmic production, the collective navigation of the space/time of writing (wiki infinity) will necessarily introduce new categories and dimensions. Rhythmic traditions provide templates, code books, and scripts for learning new categories and navigating new dimensions of writing. Wikis, as pedagogical adjuncts, facilitate experimentation with these templates towards the cultivation, refinement, and sharing of rhetorical strategies, or, in the argot of '''Neurologic''', "advanced imprints." These advanced imprints are both necessitated by and derived from the collective experimentation and navigation in the space between space consciousness and time consciousness that wiki makes available.''
