the rhizome represents nature's original decentralized network - a root system with no center, spreading horizontally, connecting multiple points without hierarchy. unlike trees which grow vertically from a single trunk, rhizomes create webs of interconnection and emergence.
this is the pattern that connects biological evolution to technological development - the rhizome is how nature innovates and how culture propagates. the coming AI revolution will follow this form.
