CHAPTER

Introduction

illusionist is a show about words, but to day's episode isnt looking at words themselves, but what's on either side of them. If it weren't for the absence of words, the words themselves would be rather incomprehensible. How would you know where one word ends and the next begins, without the space between? i was pretty astonished to discover they are a lot younger than language itself.
