29 Jan | Georgetown> back in DC w/ a new prez in town ugh .. gunna muster not to dwell on Trump too mush .... back to Serres, hour arch rivel (in a revered sense, cum living reverend .. a veritable navel occifer!) .... his riding d-fines/∆-files how we approach riding A Raft Manifest: «The exchanger is a builder where the moving parts are sorted as to meaning and move along according to that sorting, a winnowing machine with several hoppers [in our case 4] where the transformation is only cinematic.» txting imgs + imagenin txts by bootstraps carrying spares for this ark-raft in th hold .. «What does it mean to cross the sea?
