DOD Limited Fork Theory video book chapter 07: shadows reflections interactions

7th chapter of DOD: The Death of Depth," an early 2005 video exploration of Limited Fork Poetics (as Limited Fork Theory was then known, and had been known since LFT's birth in October 2004). This video book has been reconfigured from files and file fragments salvaged from a failed external hard drive (650GB of 800GB existing, as of this writing, as unreadable information).

"The Death of Depth" was an outcome of the birth of forkergirl's understanding of the usual location of her (and, therefore, her/the fork's) interactions: on the surface, at the entrance to the interaction, boundary position; "depth" continuously reconfigured as the yet-to-explore, the to-be-connected-with; for when something is cut into, the cutter and the interaction tend to be relocated to a surface that emerges; what is exposed by cut or entry becomes available for consideration, itself a form of interaction. The surface is suitable for study. And if not complex, may become so with scale shifting: magnification.

Chapter 7 comments on shadows and reflections as examples of (limited fork theory) interactions. As a bifurcating system, a limited fork system's tines (or prongs or branches) function as connectors, bridges, scaffolds, etc., all of which enable and support access, interact with access.

Shadows and reflections in Limited Fork Theory also function as contact interactions or encounters; stuff meets at access points, each of which functions as a boundary to what is, if anything, beyond it. Each access point or point of contact acts as the surface of the encounter, the surface of interaction.

Features early music from the founder of Strexx Quantum Orchestra.
