Pretentious Yet Pointless
The drawing shares not only Sol Aris's death-identification but also his cosmic perspective and obsession with power. The never-ending curves are intertwined in a parody of celebration. This picture is quintessential to one of the central preoccupations of Sol Aris's art, the understanding of the emphatically factual experience of ecstasy and white wine where the scale and openness to the piece is in some sense positive rather than simply one of passive comprehension. An important part of the work is that it is an image of the process of creation. An interesting side of this doodle is the world of dark and light contrasting strongly with the dominant angularity and horizontality so clearly visible.
The impersonal forms and industrial colours of Sol Aris's other works are still present, but in a different form.
The receding curves are forever engraved in a homage to celebration. The spectator is drawn by the essential identity of the doodle into the world of contrast of colour and space. Such forms, both serene and tranquil, create a strong interaction of forces. In this picture Sol Aris demonstrates clearly the relationship between night and day. Such forms, rabid and disconcerting, create strong gestalt sensations. The artist does not use a rectangular grid to restrict the colours, which in this way stand alone. Sol Aris has not completed the title of this image. A deep underlying meaning of this particular image is that it is a division of space that parallels the divisions and interstices of the mind. A particularly contentious aspect of this image is the emphatically factual experience of colour and space contrasting strongly with the gently curved rapidly reaching components 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.''
