About the work
As Borges wrote, the “aleph” is “the symbol of transfinite sets, in which the whole is no greater than any of its parts”, “one of the points in space that contains all the other points”, “the place where, without mixing, all the places of the globe are found, seen from every angle”. Every moment of a person's life is all moments gathered into a single point. Every individual human brain that comprehends itself, the moments of its life and its position in space is the Aleph.
