From far away the details evaporate. Personal existences, millions of them, in all their action, all their dreams, signal their presence anonymously. The clouds above, barely perceptible, present as much to the camera in their transient passing as these millions of people reduced to mere light present as signifiers, place marks, splats on a map, splats that barely rise above ...
