Oh, this is elegant and this, in particular “A determination to be the change”. To use a cliché, sometimes you’re the hammer, sometimes the nail. What is it for you to leave here to become mainly hammer?

Then there’s “I treated the scribbles as if they were alive”. Channeling an inner Ingold there Jialu? But what are they, if not alive?

In other joining of relations Lucas joins Kuhn (it isn’t a novel btw) in cinema studies to our studio. What I’d add is Kuhn is still in pre-posthumanities land and so it is ‘social relations of cultural production’, we’d expand that quite dramatically today to include nonhuman things with agency. And let’s call this a minor epiphany from Lucas: “realising that contemplation and confusion are not signs of being lost, but rather an indication that I’m heading in a clear direction”, which the Frankham reading has helped with (and Frankham is a she by the way).

Cameo realises (notices) that iteration makes a difference. This is good.
