The concentration is on DNA/RNA, the point of physical encounter and entaglement with the virus, a place where minuscule agency begins, and ripples an effect across an entire planet.

Invent your own alphabet :
I created two languages and accompanying pangrams- both sets seek to intersect the languages of science, nature, technology, and humankind.
A VIRUS IS A SEED THAT HACKS INTO A CELL, PIRATING IT FOR SURVIVAL, REPLACING THE LANGUAGE OF THE HOST DNA WITH ITS OWN LANGUAGE. IDENTIFIED AND TRANSCRIBED BY COMPUTER SCIENCE, HUMANS USE THEIR TOOLS AGAINST THE INVADER. WE USE OUR TECHNOLOGY AS DEFENSE AND OUR ARTS FOR TRANSCENDENCE. STILL WE ARE FRAIL BEASTS. WE CAN’T ESCAPE ENTANGLEMENT WITH NATURE.
