Meta

There is a unique beauty in everything that is meta. Thinking about thinking, machines that relate to other machines, writing about writing, and infinite combinations of intricate relationships and rabbit holes. Beyond this Special Issue, XPUB itself embodies the concept of metaness in the most wonderful way, flirting with the risk of being self-referential, but always fostering meaningful, compelling stimuli and inspiration.

The concept of Meta has nothing to do with the company that adopted this term as its name, butchering its gorgeous and interesting meaning.

This entry was initially written for the Special Issue 28’s Glossary, yet it continued to come back during Tommi’s research and practice, and they are interested in diving deeper 👀
