Examples

“The tiny square of glass inside looked pristine, untouched. But when Kac held it up between thumb and forefinger and aimed a small, hand-held laser at it, the word AGORA appeared in lurid green letters on the opposite wall. This is his holopoem: In his native Portuguese it means "now." But the name⟳ engraved on the outside of the titanium case is ÁGORA — a subtle but important distinction. With the accent mark⟳, the word in Portuguese changes meaning, from "now" to "place⟳," as in the ancient Greek word "agora" for "gathering place⟳." (The Greek agora was akin to the Roman forum.)”
