Overview

Book DescriptionIn a world where every measure agrees and every word arrives already understood, humanity learns to build as one body. Walls meet cleanly across continents. Roads run straight beyond the horizon. A shared rule of length, weight, and proportion binds distant cities into effortless cooperation. Trade needs no translation. Plans travel without loss. Meaning moves faster than the hand that writes it. From this perfect alignment rises a proposal: not a monument to power, but a single reference for all things. A tower that will embody the rule itself, a fixed point from which every distance can be known and every height compared. The work begins quietly. The ascent is steady. Nothing resists. Then understanding asks for just a little more care. Words gain examples. Instructions gain diagrams. Correctness gains explanation. Nothing breaks. Nothing fails. Yet between intent and action, a breath of space appears-and slowly widens. As the tower climbs, humanity discovers a strange new condition: many ways to be right at once. Each interpretation faithful to the rule. Each voice clear within its own circle. Together, harder to lift as one. This is the story of Babel not as sudden confusion, but as gradual divergence. Not as punishment, but as withdrawal of unseen ease. Not as collapse, but as continuation under effort. Local work flourishes. Great distances grow quiet. The unfinished tower remains, not in ruin, but in perfect measure-an enduring reference for a world that now speaks in many precise tongues. A quiet, witness-based reimagining of an ancient story, THE SCATTERING OF TONGUES is a meditation on language, systems, cooperation, and what happens when shared understanding must be carried by human hands alone. When assistance is mistaken for capacity, consequence replaces care. And still, the work goes on.
