<p>We don&rsquo;t experience memory in linear fashion, nor even in a strictly coherent one. It&rsquo;s peppered with tangents and strange loops. It&rsquo;s multithreaded. It&rsquo;s not always made up of words. Why should a memoir strive to strip memory completely of this context?</p>

<p><em class="ally-font">ally</em> is an ergodic, arborescent, semiautobiographical work about identity, mental health, spirituality, and the mutability of the past. A lot of the information contained within is real, some of it isnt. Each page is structured as a conversation between myself and my ally, a mirror reflection of myself.</p>
<p>Based off the interactive project at <a href="https://ally.id"><em class="ally-font">ally.id</em></a>, this book explores different facets of my life — some true, some embellished, some wholly fictitious — in a non-linear, ergodic fashion, using color, page-layout, and mixed-media to create a book more experience than memoir.</p>

<p>&ldquo;I felt I was chasing down fractions of the author&rsquo;s soul. Chasing them not because I got this to read and review, but because I deeply wanted to. So I could put them together and solve an ultimate puzzle whose picture would contain some incompre-hensible beauty.&rdquo;</p>
