Start your Friday with a celebration of words. "Saying Things" by Marilyn Krysl https://www.ayearofbeinghere.com/2013/02/marilyn-krysl-saying-things.html

Le Misanthrope, Act 2, sc. 4, l. 579ff (1666) [tr. Wormeley (1894), 2.5]

Might we have an animated talking avatar for future communications and videos?
Well... we might. And this opens up a lot of possibilities.. like animated videos for our synthpop compilations with singers actually, well... singing.
