Pretentious Yet Pointless
The piece shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. In this drawing Sol Aris delineates the relationship between summer and winter. The shapes of Sol Aris's earlier works are still present, but entirely altered. The impersonal forms and industrial colours in this drawing, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind duty, responsibility, discipline and work... In this prototype Sol Aris shows the relationship between salt and ecstasy.
Such forms, both monumental and poetic, create complex and fascinating interactions with the environment. The dominant angularity and horizontality of Sol Aris's other works are clearly visible here, but unrecognizably altered. The world of summer and winter of Sol Aris's other works are clearly visible here, but unrecognizably altered. In this image Sol Aris shows the relationship between dark and light. Contrasts of colour and space emphasise the broad scope of the prototype.
``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.''
