what is it that makes two sparks fly together, is it
seeing another spark move nearby ?

Yes. The first makes an ionized trail through the gas
which the second finds easier to follow than make a new one.
Electrons frequently fly back-and-forth many times before a
spark decays which permits the eye to focus and see them.

i saw it move in a funny direction that seems to be computing
another angle, because a field built up around it that doesn't
wave the right of way, but gives an answer to how something
inbetween can avoid contract to what doesn't attract it.

There used to be computers that worked something like this.
I have programmed such analog computers. They have a few
advantages over digital computers but are often impractical
and special-purpose (vs general purpose).

Wave interference you originally described is well known and used
in antenna farm design (constructive vs destructive interference).
The problem with this for logic circuitry is turning the transmitter
on and off rapidly enough. Alternatively, you could consider
the FET (field-effect transistor) at the heart of all modern
microelectronics already does this.

why can't it find the light of day to open it up to a better
suggestion of how to stay grounded? is it because a flatline
drains the highest reach ?

I am not sure what you mean. Open drains are no way to design
high-speed circuits because the capacitance takes too long
to decay. You need bi-directional drivers. Your flickering
fluorescent lights up due to the capacitance effects from the
human body, or changes in contact resistance when you touch it.

I realize english may not be your native language,
but please spend more effort composing clearly.
Otherwise, you are rudely wasting our time.
