Yeah, I thought this was all settled when it was replicated by Burroughs?

In reply to In the Stanislavsky teaching

Maybe it has something to do with the subject at hand. There are scenes we know have happened over and over again. The repetition is closer to our understanding than almost anything else.
I did not build my mind. I just have one.

In reply to This spot of bother makes me

In the Stanislavsky teaching on acting, there is an insistence that one isn't making the set real but allowing a quality to reveal itself.

Having nothing to do with the subject at hand, what you wrote reminded me immediately of the new Sally Hemings exhibit at Monticello and how it was put together.

Thanks to a short description given by one of Jefferson’s grandsons, historians believe that Hemings lived in the slave quarters in the South Wing. But they aren’t sure which room. Curators decided to tell Hemings’s story in one of the rooms. Instead of making it a period room with objects that she might have possessed, they left it empty, projecting the words of her son Madison on the wall to tell her story.

Maybe what they've done, including using a shadow projection to depict a woman never photographed or imaged, has something to do with this after all. "The standing wave of complete reflection" recognized and allowed to dissipate into a pool of individual pieces.
