add to communication

"How would you call this kind of conversation?"
Nephew Who tapping on his console scanning for dictionaries
"Yeah, I am really curious what kind of communication this is. It is not a dialog as there is just one researcher involved, I guess."
Traveller in Time on his head
"Now you got a point, we are not really one researcher, we are just the collective thoughts of a few people."
wondering what to do, quit reading or too curious to stop
"But all these people are in one head, was it not, being schizophrenic?"
Traveller in Time feeding some fresh bugs
"Also close to the point, we are the persona of a schizophrenic researcher, reflecting conversations of that researcher with other people."
Nephew Who taking a paper dictionary from the shelf
"Hmm, still not got any closer to the topic. I get the impression you just write to fill the space. Is that it?"
Traveller in Time walking to the colour of day
"Yes and no. The main reason to start multi persona postings has to do with the lack of bandwidth."
just read some journals
"That is why you ordered for a broadband connection?"
Traveller in Time adjusting some colours using a cuttlefish
"Nope, I mean bandwidth in writing, you can not write anything that can not be interpreted another way. We try to enhance an environment in such way we create context for our sayings."
Sailor in Time splicing some lines together
"You mean some thing like this?"
he is hold ing up his ropes
" As you can see the knots are not regu lar."
Traveller in Time trying the moves with his fingers, they get stuck
"I think of it as the old ladies on their tea party. Chattering through each other sometimes listening and most times just talking. They all tell stories and lessons as perhaps one of the others is actually listening to them. Listening is something like tuning in into a communication stream. Nearly no posting is continous there are gaps inbetween, sometimes hours or days, sometimes simpost. I want to fill the lack of continuity by producing something of an environment"

"We all have some speciality, I love these bugs, Who builds, Traveller creates, Cheif reads a lot and compresses, translates, Sailor is a raw guy cleaning anything, Snack is just starting his advertisement campaign, the Winkles are smart and one 'We are Susan join us', the parrot is just noisy."
