The sound str means to move quickly along a mostly straight path, like streams, streamers, and strollers. Because str is about straightness, this implies strength, strong, even stretch from a strand of hair to a strand of DNA, the genetic code for all life. Because string is the key component of an instrument one strums, the metaphor of striationstripes gives a visual image to structure, instructions, and strategy: all which require a strict scaffolding, whether physical or metaphysical.
