Abstract

Nodals of Hamletspace, which is itself a subset of Shakespace, have laminated across history. They emerge within streams of Hamletspace as its component parts invade, envelop, and then play as processual amalgamations of becomings- and comings-to-be-different from quotidian-consciousness and its commonplace context. The headspace of Hamlet is potentially both a superset and a subset of Hamletspace and Shakespace.
