An interactive experiment turns a name into a phonetic path across a fixed field of real catalogued stars.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-28 issue.

Field notes

The project assigns each letter a permanent position in a shared field of catalogued stars, then connects those positions in the order supplied by the visitor. Its real-sky view cites Pan-STARRS1 / PS1, MAST/STScI, and CDS, while the abstract view emphasizes the resulting geometry. The page also compares five anagrams—LISTEN, SILENT, ENLIST, TINSEL, and INLETS—to show how identical letters produce different journeys.
