Articulations in the mind of concepts-to-become are precisely this moment of converting sense experience into a thought which may be spoken or written, and as such, one word begins to follow another. A speech-act of inner conceptual monologue is linear, in other words, even if the speech it indexes is always-already emergent from a non-linear field. Indiralectrics asks the thinker to notice when one is conceptually ‘forcing’ the relation----this is the moment to pause on rushing to determine ‘what the relation is’ and rather transcribe it to open it up to a broader swath of potential thinkers, in doing so entering the operator phase to form the expression and introduce chance or multiplicity. The writer of expressions and operations is not an author but rather a scripter, scribe or scribbler. We do not wish to claim authorship of a relational expression; as with the author, however, we likewise seek the death of this scripter, in this case using chance elements to select a random operator for the expression from a ‘truth table’. This truth table was drawn up mainly for simplicity, following a half-lap around the periphery of the English qwerty keyboard from top-left to bottom-right, drawing only from punctuation symbols. What is key with most of the operators in this table is that they possess meaning in a plurality of dataspaces: for example, in English language grammar, mathematical notation, computer program syntax, tachygraphic messaging, vispo or concrete poetry, physical form of glyph, etc. A punctuation mark carries within it this plurality, which it offers in turn to indiralectric technique: once the chance event has been introduced to select an operator for a particular expression (by selecting numbers from a random generator), the multiplicity of the punctuation symbol flowers to a multiplicity for the indiralectric expression.” (J. Cousteaux, Indiralectrics: On Decenterings for Non-Worldings, p.2)
