The Plea-Deal, a crease is never intentional. Is one then to imagine numerical images, that have no model, the products of calculation? Hive mind flatland, next dimension, please. What is on view is inside, there is no such thing as an empty space. Single tactics ready to mingle. A time will come when we desire the mundanity of the physical world as we all envelop in a folded page, signed sealed delivered. Flower hotlines. Naturally, organic matter already suggests an interiorization, always in progress and never complete. Do you still believe a crease is never intentional? What about the digital space...To anyone: become your Avatar, codepend on the facade, cellular texturizing by your own input. It is complicated. Bodies are inherently Valid. Fold. Wrinkle Wrinkle Please.(*Loosely quoting from Legacy Russel, Glitch Feminism / Gilles Deluezue, The Fold/Material Coils)
