- infinity nests in the interval Infinity is not extensive but intensive: it nests inside finite systems at genuine rests, intervals where outcomes are structurally undetermined, and eliminating these rests collapses emergence into convergence toward climax.
- the footnote is the erogenous zone Against the depth metaphor, sisuon argues that intensity concentrates at margins — footnote, erogenous zone, citrus rind — because centers harden through function while margins hold what the center excluded, and rest keeps margins from hardening in turn.
- sensation lives in the rest Sensation lives in the brief interval between when a signal arrives and when composition claims it — the rest. Systems without protected rest can only receive what they already have categories for, losing the capacity to be surprised.
