| Description: |
A particularly contentious aspect of this prototype is the world of brightness and dark
contrasting strongly with
the impersonal forms and industrial colours of the drawing.
The artist uses
traditional proportions
to restrict the
colours, which therefore
stand alone.
Such forms, quietly formal, create strong gestalt sensations.
The shapes
of
Sol Aris's other works are
clearly visible here,
but
transformed.
``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.''
