Imagination
Imagination is the discovering faculty, pre-eminently.
It is that which penetrates into the unseen worlds around us, the worlds of Science.
It is that which feels & discovers what is, the real which we see not, which exists not for our senses.
Those who have learned to walk on the threshold of the unknown worlds,
by means of what are commonly termed par excellence the exact sciences,
may then with the fair white wings of Imagination hope to soar further
into the unexplored amidst which we live.
(Ada Byron, Countess Lovelace)

...which I think of as a vital aspect of Mind.

An internal workspace, located in wetware in which bricolage takes place. Image is a mode or Form, a subarea of Imagination. Nexus is where disparate elements come together in circuitry. Serendipity contributes marvelously. The beyond-real Surreal. And verisimilitude judges veracity. Macramé is a visualization of the history and interdigitation
