galvanism is the concept, uh, the obsolete scientific theory that there is a kind of electricity flowing through our bloodstreams
And that was our life
force
I used the term because I came across it in, uh, Mary Shelley's, uh, "Frankenstein"
And that
book is sort of an exploration of the theme of creating a character, of making up a person
So I used the term "galvanistic" to allude to that
book as a sort of a symbol of how I
like, created you as a character
I'm pretending that I know a lot more about you than I actually do
And also to refer to the fact that I've fall—fallen in love with the characters you've created in, uh, your body of
work
