Oh god the monster's-ahem, I'm back! This time 'round I'm giving a crash course on how I do sigil arrays. [No pictures right now, sadly. I'll have to doodle stuff up.]
There are a couple of ways this can be done, though they're all rather brief and they build on basic sigil crafting. Now, these can be done on paper, on pretty much any surface you can write on, on your own flesh - They're basically a hyper-sigil.
Linking-
This one's easy. Make a couple of basic sigils, and I mean basic. Wanna lose weight? One sigil for "I am a healthy weight", one for "My metabolism is a healthy speed", "I am more motivated to work out" bla bla bla bla. And another linking sigil. You can just circle the whole darn thing since that apparently works. One could also make a sigil with the words "Link" "Continue" "And" "So on" "Next", you get the gist. Yet further, "These sigils are linked" or whatever would also work. Must I yammer on?
Continuation-
This is a bit more of a doozy. Taking our examples from earlier, we want to shape the sigils in such a way that by continuing one line or curl, we can go on to write/draw the next sigil. for instance, if we had a p and an m, one could put it like this-
p
|
MAnd have it be a 'continuation'. Gods bless Dwarf Fortress, ASCII is saviour. [Teacher-sans will remember to remove that DF bit later. God Save The Queen was playing.]
Layering-
If ya do digital sigils and have some layer-enabling paint software, then you'll be able to use those layers to mix sigils up. One basic sigil over the other, preferably in two different colors/color patterns, allows you to see them both at once. Add more, and you just get a layered sigil. Theoretically, this can be done as well on paper, especially with thin papers such as wax paper, crepe paper, and tissue paper, but have luck getting practice drawing sigils on wax and tissue, kids.
Breaking the Matrix-
Now, being real, this is just something I've seen and have yet to realize exactly how it works. Apparently, if one has a device they can change the background of - like a phone or laptop - they can not only put a sigil on the background of said device but also on/under/around/in the item. While not quite 'linking' in the sense of mixing many sigils into one, sticking a licking sigil on the background of the device and then stacking your sigils under/you get it/in the item would, in theory, link 'em all together. Pair this up with charging the device charging the sigils as well, and...well, you break the matrix.
Annnd I'm outta stuff off of the top of my head. Soooo, for now, I'll just direct you to the Hatsune Miku "fuck it" song , because ~I wanna take a nap!~
Notes-
Any theory out of my mouth/writing is absolutely a theory. I do not have a hundred per cent of the facts on how it works, though I will make a note to explore it later and possibly nearly kill myself experimenting with it. Who knows~!
Don't worry, I'm durable. Some ear/nose/throat doc in Round Rock has my tonsils on display if there's any question about that.
