A. The work and the gamesmanship somehow become more dumb and more sophisticated at the same time.
B. One is reminded of Georges Perec writing a novel without using the letter E. ¾ House, ½ House, ¼ House . . . all using only geometric fragments, fractions of platonic shapes.
C. The sequence becomes more attenuated, with more ramps. . . .
D. Everything is pulled further apart, there is no more square frame for the compositions holding the elements together.
E. An assembly of volumes.
