while ao spare in the fervor of his visions reconstituted the sigil from
its roots in summoning energies in the exoteric world to creating energies from
the esoteric – a process as far removed from its origins as metaphysics from
physics – here, in the 9 rolling hyperspheres of gløm, in this fervor inspired
by the conjunction of koo-shqa and a wayward marmot, sadoo z|z•‖┃☟┃‖•ÿῥῤñ-˚¨˚`˝´~ ͂ˉ˚ migrates equally as far away
from that which migrated away … sigilizing at a distance from spare
commensurate with the distance between spare and its predecessors, from ˙pataphysics
to metaphysics
what achieves this?
nothing
the sigil is not located here or
there, outside or inside. it does not refer to pre-existent entities in heaven,
hell, or earth; nor does it provide the capacity to conjure from the
subconscious. it does not refer, it does not provide. the sigil does nothing,
creates nothing, curses or blesses nothing, helps or dooms nothing, is nothing
our sigils – their hierarchies
and disorders, their names and numbers, glyphs and energies – are empty sets
upon empty sets upon empty sets. they are devoid of magic and intent,
representation and outcome, force and symbol, will and work, meaning,
significance, association, nostalgia. they are devoid of themselves
one plays the 9 rolling hyperspheres
of gløm by having two stacks before one : the first stack consists of
overturned cards with the 81 names, the second of overturned cards with the 81
sigils. one proceeds by drawing randomly a card from the name stack and
likewise a card from the sigil stack. this matching of name and sigil becomes
the match until one redraws. one can also play other ways. any discourse you
might have heard in previous or future texts of purpose or meaning is contrary
to the 9 rolling hyperspheres of gløm
the authors would like to thank –
and by wanting to, do – sadoo z|z•‖┃☟┃‖•ÿῥῤñ-˚¨˚`˝´~ ͂ˉ˚ for its part, as well as ao
spare and the anonymous creators of
clavicula salomonis lemegeton and related
texts of medievality and prior, for theirs. we all work together across
illusions of time and space in increasing abstraction to the attainment of
nothing by also of its means
our 81 sigils and names may also point to, though also without meaning,
the 81 voices of the members of the council of i, who argue around the table of
nothingness, and these voicings can be considered in the matching of the names
and the sigils
