Might be a bit unnecessarily esoteric in ways, but we should have a convo about Richard Rorty and his understanding of "vocabularies." I'm re-reading his seminal text Contingency, Irony, and Solidarity right now (due to listening to Kevin Munger on the New Models podcast) and I think his way of understanding how language to describe novelty moves from the metaphorical to the everyday is what you're hunting for. Maybe.
Thank you for your all inspiring Zine. I'm a new Substacker. Zine is my very first Subscription.
I've always been influenced by those that invent new words; my first being, of all people, "Ringo Starr". I'm writing a follow up to your " Make up a Word", Called " Preservation of Cultures". I look forward to reading and listening to your Blog.
