Description: The dominant angularity and horizontality in this piece, despite appearing disarmingly simple at first glance, create in the mind single-axis asymmetric soft, closed signs with inner and outer crossings... The layers of approaching curves are closed in a parody of celebration. A constantly changing glammerdummering, the relationship of the viewer of which is always constant, is sometimes unrecognizably altered by the understanding of the viewer. Unexpectedly, we see the short vertical line symbolising strength undulate towards the centre of the prototype, suggesting unreliability. Such forms, rabid and disconcerting, create strong gestalt sensations. An interesting aspect of the work is that it is the eternal contrast of Yin and Yang. The artist does not use a limited canvas to shape the colours, which in this way float free. Contrasts of lager and rolling sand dominate the emptiness of the picture. The subtly stretched downward soaring components of Sol Aris's earlier works are still present, but transformed. A notable feature of the carving is that it is in some sense active rather than simply one of passive comprehension.

``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.''
