Here is a problem I have been working on for many years—or, rather, working on finding a way to work on: to use the originary grammar I have developed from the succession of speech forms analyzed in Eric Gans’s The Origin of Language as a way of not so much analyzing specific texts, down to the level of the individual sentence, but of participating in the transmission of texts, down to that level. Now I think I have a way of proceeding. I mention this because the “breakthrough” comes through my exploring further the implications of the two models of language I have been contrasting recently: language as grammatical rules+words, on the one hand, and language as “chunks,” on the other. This distinction first became important to me in a pedagogical context; more precisely, the context of teaching writing, and determining the treatment of error within that context. More recently, this distinction became important in thinking through the algorithmic order, and in figuring out how not to resist nor merely endure, but to participate in—to engage in data exchange with the center.
