corner of your computer. a sweet sspot thank you, science+technology! oh, ffff, right there, thank you!

available to us in the past 30 or 40 years, and that’s the desktop interface.
a blue rectangular icon on the lower right corner,
does that mean that the file itself is blue and rectangular
and lives in the lower right corner of your computer?

<and full-blown semiotics, well-known mystery>

it has color, position, and shape. those are the only categories available to you,
and yet none of them are true, couldn’t possibly be true. an interesting thing.
could not form a true description, entire view of reality confined to the desktop.

yet the desktop is useful. blue rectangular icon guide my behavior,
hide complex reality. key idea.

whatever reality might be. time to figure it out, the tiger will eat you.
