The Woven Word
In the modern mind, writing and weaving are distinct activities—one intellectual, one manual. But etymologically, they are identical. The Latin verb texere means "to weave." From this root we get both textile (a woven fabric) and text (a woven structure of words).
This connection is not accidental. Ancient cultures understood that telling a story was an act of weaving disparate threads into a coherent pattern. A "plot" is a series of knots. A "line" of text corresponds to a line of thread.
Code as Tapestry
In the Myceloom framework, we reclaim this connection to understand software. Code is not just logic; it is a textile. It has warp and weft. It can be brittle or resilient. It can be patched or unraveled.
When we write software, we are not just stacking bricks; we are interlacing dependencies. This invites us to think like weavers: respecting the tension of the materials, hiding the knots, and creating surfaces that are usable and beautiful.
