We Make Defective Kaleidoscopes
(Skaanda of the Molar Aggregates) (WIP-model)



conception (sa~nj~naa); manifestations of desiring machines (symbols, fetishes, structures of thought, narratives) code

deadpan beauty of  desiring-machine-reef,
gentle toil clothed in fascinations (photo dept.)
host controllers balk, EI to be reset
production backs up and is rerouted
person-L not allowed to make decisions
not allowed to be put in the position to make mistakes
keep it cattle simple and move the mass
multiple devices, multiple layers
multiple chemicals, multiple exposure sources
redundant alignment systems
everything turned to a spectacle of numbers
equations determined in one set of hours
resonate through another predetermined set
and so on ad nauseum

sensation (vedanaa); domains of presence or zones of intensity (voluptas). surfaces are decoded

but aside from all this panopticality
there are roundnesses, skewed traces of elemental flotsam
simplicities whose intensity mocks the baroque fundament of indexes
sounds which seemed milked from the void by velocity's muse
2867 RPM on a PEK vacuum chuck
rotary gridblur, animated penumbra of theatrical solvents
terse mechanicisms viewed through aesthetic criteria
to become an electric terpsichora of microphysica
motor return to anima in meanings beyond function or speach
their voices recognizable, sensors tricked
3character codes leap like toads in a gridded swamp
a humidity controlled, positively pressurized retort of logic
whose homunculi enact a robust skin, over the constant symbol

volition (sam.skaara); molecular energy that places molecules-partial objects (libido) in connection, execution

DIK, COK, GOD, FAG, XUT, TIT, UGH, NUT, LAB, FUT, HAK, MUO
GUI, MUD, ZAP, TUD, MIK, LOI, POL, REW, QUA, LIP, UIN, TSA
HAT, OIL, NUI, GYT, HER, PCV, FES, IDS, VOO, REH, DZO, RUN
KEN, YUM, LOK, ERR, DED, LEP, NUB, CUT, TRU, RER, GCH, NEU
DIM, SLY, PIG, EYE, GAK, POR, KIL, JIM, EAR, AWE, ENN, OOP
CUM, BAT, OFF, LOP, FUL, EEL, LEG, KEG, HOL, RIN, SEX
these are pod codes, each with an attendant bar code
which like an emblem of penal servitude, hides the
architectural elegance of the machinic and modular womb
of production. then they are cracked open to be processed..

the material organism (ruupa); giant molecule of the body without organs (numen), the transmolar interface of surface

vernacular ease lurches from behind hulking implements
youths grab and posture in mythic deportments, horse-like
in their horseplay, like gortex clad sileni wearing safety glasses
girls giggle at their SEM stations, staring into nanometric worlds
of flawed implementation, guided by commercial software
into trancelike states resembling satori, grey mice gliding silent
in the human intervention of some agency's flawed perceptual metric
a man has inserted himself into an opening in a machine
another man is handing him tools, a lifeless oscilloscope
sits nearby from earlier investigations, his boot is coming off

and consciousness (vij~nana). the entire field of production, inclusive of all disjunctions, the bus and the processor in state

white grid, made yellow, laminar flow
the constant blinking of error lights,
the rows of pods, the libraries in process
the robots whining as they ascend, spin, descend
and accellerate, x, y, z and thetasimultaneous
the old faces grinning as they joke, typing annotations
the gamboling youths, balancing pods on hips
the cursing of the technicians, closing their eyes
and reaching into the blind and delicate spaces
where the only prey is an adjustment node
