for anyone who's curious or has asked, that diagram in my pics is a graphic model of a hyper-threaded scene in the movie Time Regained, about Marcel Proust. it is based on a model like that of the earth's magnetism.
essentially, there is what i am calling a "moment of resonance" in which marcel and gilberte (represented in the diagram by M and G. Mo is another character who will figure later) are talking and marcel's teacup breaks in an unexplained way:
Marcel speaks about Death between two people who have loved eachother but no longer do. Somehow, his reaction to Gilberte's offer to reveal who she was with has to do with the breaking of the teacup. is there some kind of moment of resonance between the two of them when they either realize the existance of the death between them...or when they realize that this death does not exist? is the cup a symbol for that death?
the diagram tries to use the cup's moment of resonance as a magnet for fields of conditions which brought that moment about. from outermost to innermost, they are: love, deviance, repression, fear, death. the fields converge on the moment of resonance at the "emotional cusp" in which all the emotions are concentrated and focused--like the earth's magnetic fields at the poles.
likewise, instead of solar wind stretching out the fields, the forces of society do so. in some places, thinning fields out (love, etc) and puffing others up.
the characters occupy places within the fields based on their states at the time of the events. their central points are determined by their proximity to / relationship with the societal forces coming from the left of the diagram.
anyway. this is part of my work on a current project. does it make any sense?

-that's the reason i brought what i had to say over here; some semblance of privacy rather than on the board. i thought about emailing you but that seemed over-the-top in the opposite direction.
anyway, yeah, done. are you coming out tonight? i still don't know for sure if i can make it but i'm going to try to.
