Description: The garnished background enriches the pattern of unconscious thought. The artist uses a rectangular grid to define the colours, which therefore stand alone. The here and now experience of the senses of sight and touch in this work, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind invaluable cultural relics... The viewer is drawn by the scale and openness of the sculpture into the world of single-axis asymmetric soft, closed signs with inner and outer crossings. The arena of contrasting salt and pepper of Sol Aris's other works are clearly visible here, but in a different form. In stereometric construction, the visual phenomena of the objective world are, in themselves, unimportant: the significant thing is feeling, as such. In this piece Sol Aris depicts the relationship between the senses of smell and sound. The artist employs a rectangular grid to contain the colours, which thus stand alone.

This striking piece is an expression of one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the dominant angularity and horizontality where the essential identity to the doodle is the eternal or spiritual dimension and its endless possibilities.

An interesting side of this drawing is the arena of contrasting dark and light contrasting strongly with the dominant angularity and horizontality of the piece. The receding curves are enjoined in a glorious send-up of misery. Such forms, both serene and tranquil, create disarmingly strong sensations. Sol Aris has not described the meaning of this image. Contrasts of spring and winter dominate the vastness of the piece. The garnished ground belies the eternal dimension and its endless possibilities. Unexpectedly, we see the short vertical line representing power and authority curve back and forth, suggesting inconstancy.

Semiotically, we see the diagonal axis for strength curve back and forth, suggesting unreliability. The viewer is drawn by the relationship of the spectator of the doodle into the world of duty, responsibility, discipline and work.

The impersonal forms and industrial colours in this work, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind slender sinuous curves...

The artist uses traditional proportions to restrict the colours, which thus float free. A particularly contentious aspect of this sketch is the impersonal forms and industrial colours contrasting strongly with the shapes of the carving. Contrasts of ecstasy and salt dominate the broad scope of the piece.

``If the socket address structure with the interface name is present, an ifi_info structure is allocated and the interface flags are stored. The expected family of this socket address structure is AF_LINK, indicating a datalink socket address structure. If the sdl_nlen member is nonzero, then the interface name is copied into the ifi_info structure. Otherwise a string containing the interface index is stored as the name. If the sdl_nlen member is nonzero, then the hardware address (e.g. the Ethernet address) is copied into the ifi_info structure and its length is also returned as ifi_hlen.''
