edit: your “WORK BACKWARDS” riff reminds me of your branching paths post with the lightning gif
thunderclouds naturally want to dissipate energy, it’s only when it reaches the ground when the light works backwards from the source and you get that BOOM effect
then what we perceive as lightning turns out to be that paving effect from ground back to cloud happening at an instant
Huh, so ages ago I wrote this post about some random paper I found with dialogue samples of a kid playing SimCity, and just kind of building and trashing roads in the way you describe. You might find it interesting too: https://drossbucket.com/2019/03/24/simcity-bricolage/
My big essay--the one that got me most of my subscriber base--is about that phenom you described in your opening: the way the grandiose vision paralyzes you. I think we share some similar struggles.
