I picture my present cognition as motion made visible—not only where intent travels, but how it travels. In this self‑portrait I record both domains at once: the outer field traces real‑space trajectories of thought, while a square atrium within the work area becomes a hodograph—an arena where the same moments are redrawn purely by their velocity. The spokes around that atrium register discrete bearings, and each stroke inherits an ink from the heading it briefly faces. Together, these twin mappings render a kinematic self: one body moving through space and, simultaneously, a constellation of speeds and directions that reveal the temperament of the motion itself.
