in the infinitive

the digital works of Jeff Instone interactively split infinitives introducing into the rhetoric of search-mechanism the anacoluthon - a purposefully defective component - and the medieval notion of hæcceitas - nowness and thisness - to produce works that he calls Meccano-ist rather than Lego-ist : Modernist not Populist - which he builds using a digital scripting language - a logic engine with an attached vocabulary - to make bare-bones or skeletal screen-works taking as their base-point an enlightened humanism confined within the social field of present day Europe : an incoherent postindustrial Flat-Land

in so doing Jeff Instone examines the precept that the soul is more than the hum of its parts within the context of electronic signage - itself a commodification of information which leads ethno-methodologists to preclude any transcendence of the mean condition and artificial intelligence workers to define that suitable vagueness so useful in the discussion of unformed ideas and essential for the accurate description of the kind of continuity which would be inaccurately defined were it to be expressed in precise terms as Fuzzy Set Theory - a means of expressing lack of precision quantitively using Set Membership Function(s)
