You ought to be the one working on these chains.

Just had to Google and I saw interesting videos on U-Tube by a person of your name. The cadence of narration reminded me of your comment. Am I experiencing false positives?

If only brushstrokes.

Funny about the Stella thing. I visited the newly reopened Akron Art Museum today and had a good look at their Stella. Unfortunately there is no Scully in the collection, else I could have schlepped one to the other. Suffice to say that the Frank in question seemed to be singing another song, but I’m beginning to wonder if he isn’t somehow, influencing me in the chain stuff.

I’m constantly agog over the backgrounds of those assembled here. There have to be at least three working scientists in our midsts.

Which leads me to ask what kind of a physicist you may be.

Good intuition about Stella, he was an important influence on Scully, who did some similar work with very narrow, parallel lines in his early days.

Love your phrase “scrap rate.” How can you know where you want to be unless you go past it (at least sometimes)? In my photo work, I almost always take something too far; fortunately, it’s easy to back off on the effect when it’s bits rather than brushstrokes.

When we think about making something harmonious, it’s often about actively trying to make something match an idea of order or balance. But I suspect there’s also a kind of organic harmony that comes with less awareness just because there’s a human consciusness recording or assembling or creating whatever (call it art) we’re talking about. You may try to let be the agitation and struggle, but I think that means a way of turning “control” over to your sub-conscious mind, which is still filtering in many ways.

I’m not trying to argue with what you say, just understand it for myself. Does that make sense?
