i wasn't trying to imply that at all, i genuinely enjoy the piece, and
appreciate the mathematics that produce it. i merely want to
differentiate between cartesian and non-cartesian spaces. unfortunately
the tools available are all cartesian, and alternatives must finally be
mapped to that cartesian space prior to final presentation. this to me
is an inherent flaw in the endeavor. its heisenberg's uncertainty
principle. inevitably the tools we use to measure the results of the
experiment, effect the outcome.
