| Item #2021.Y003, West Leicester, January 2021 |
Amidst the tedium of catastrophe, an unaccustomed inconvenience supplies picturesque relief.
The city's whine of complaint cuts out - its interstices softly padded with granular white noise.
Distance becomes congested and the long-view contracts. A possibility of compromised respiration hangs in the air. Meshes fur-up and screens are occluded. Stark traceries intervene
Transactional movement runs down, even as activity increases. A wholesale revision of familiar boundaries has revealed new grounds for refrigerated play; a landscape made interactive.
Consequently, new characters emerge to augment the populace. In demeanour they occupy three main categories: the sinister, the comic, and the painfully timid. Many are besmirched.
A vivid emblem is inserted into the monochrome field; an acidic splinter. The situation has been Risk-assessed. Your safety is my safety (bam!). This portent of instability is strangely welcome.
