How this page grows

Every page adds a gene

The creature above is built from the list below. Each Glamour Gram is a cell, placed on a golden-angle spiral, the 137.5° turn that packs sunflower seeds. Each also carries one gene that adds a new behaviour to the whole organism. Add a page and the creature changes: it grows a cell, and it learns something new.

Glamour began as a Scots form of grammar: learning so deep it looked like enchantment. Read in order, the genes are the spell this site is writing.
