Disillusion (v.)
“to free or be freed from illusion,” 1855, from a noun disillusion meaning “act of freeing from illusion” (Per the website https://www.etymonline.com/ )
After I got the obscure audio editing plug-in Torrential, I’ve found several words
in the video prologue. Audible. I’ve used every equalizer and compressor and volume.
They are not conditional words.
I don’t think there is any “if” or “whether” or “contingent” to them.
Long before the land was inhabitable, there was a census.
I’m staging a documentary on lost nostalgia, and the Blue Ravine Drive-In.
Only now, I’m not going to include this development in a grant application.

Did you know that the word emendation has a remarkable etymology?
emendation (n.) “removal of errors; the correction of that which is erroneous or faulty“
I don’t hear that word. I read it instead
Torrential
on the insignia over a keyhole.
Static register means in modern terms the sequence of words never changes.
Creative exploration of words and language. The words chosen evoke my curiosity.
I agree with, Nancy. This kind of exploration can lead to bigger things. Go after it!
Hi again, Trent. Is this an earlier draft or a later draft? I’m super invested in what you’re doing with language here (perhaps paleography sticks with me even more, maybe because I read it first) and I’d love to see you stay with it, as I’d love to read more. (A Plug-in called Torrential?! YES. Please.) You’ve got something.
Another vote for continuing to explore this! My favorite line, for reasons I cannot explain is, “They are not conditional words.”
I would love to hear you read this aloud.
Trent, something really cool going on here, there’s a through-line just out of reach and I like the mystery. Whatever you’re doing, keep doing it, I think you’re excavating something valuable.
