RE: [-empyre-] might be of interest

Thanks.

These are repeated attempts at creating a skein of meaning across an image
- both leak into the other. The skein as you know is mathematically
recursive and nested, but otherwise simple; it's an enfolding into itself,
reminiscent of Bohm's implicate order.

So on that level I think it connects with your thoughts in the previous
post - on one hand, there are algorithms which 'strain' at the limits of
the computer's rounding out, etc. - it's all determinate - and on the
other hand, the image hopefully escapes process and procedure.

I suppose for me it's a form of codework...
