When We Speak, What Are We Making?

This one turns toward naming again—but from another angle: the naming of worlds, of selves, of realities brought into being through utterance.


TOPO:
We speak to describe the world.
To say what is
.

RHEO:
But saying doesn’t only describe—
it construes.

TOPO:
You mean language doesn’t just report reality—
it shapes it?

RHEO:
Yes.
Every utterance is a cut, a frame, a possibility.

TOPO:
So speaking is not neutral.
It’s a world-making act.

RHEO:
Exactly.
To speak is to choose a path through potential.

TOPO:
Then meaning is not found.
It is forged in relation, each time we open our mouths.


RHEO & TOPO:
Language is not a mirror.
It is a tool, a gesture, a call—
through which the world becomes what it wasn’t before.
