The buildings and architecture of Horsingdon, like any other urban or suburban conurbation, has become canvas to many examples of graffiti. However, sometimes one can discern within examples of urban scrawl the camouflaged interventions of malign metropolitan sorcerers: those who seek to employ a forbidden arcana to recode primordial cryptographic systems - those which are foundational to the structure of reality as we understand it - for their infinitely wicked ends. In this endeavor, they employ strange and antediluvian linguistic structures which are not of this or any other conceivable world: languages which are not symbolic systems of abstract signification, but are, ontologically, non-representational and inseparable from the world they describe: in a very literal sense, what constitutes a word (at least in human terms) within such linguistic structures is the very thing being articulated - brought into being through the very act of its articulation. In other words, a speech act which transforms the nature of reality through its vocalization or inscription.
The above image being a case in point. This device, I am reliably informed, is but one component of a glyph belonging to the pre-human Nacaal language: a glyph also constituent of a greater ritual invocation which, when performed in its totality, possesses the power to unravel the world through illocutionary alien grammars of negation and undoing.
