An acrylic top that sits where nobody will ever see it. That makes no sense, or does it? The acrylic top is art, and like all art it speaks of a mystery which, like the acrylic top, makes no logical sense. The shortest distance between two lines is a straight line, right? Our computers operate in bolian logic, yes now or yes later, sort of like Bush taking us to war with Iraq. That’s the staightline, or flat line, method. Reality teaches us that the flat line method msteriously is a huge mistake. Art speaks to us and reminds us of that mystery. It’s a lesson that the human race and the computer industry is sorely in need in of remembering today. It’s apparently something that WD is remembering with this acrylic top. When we remember ourselves and our place, we also remember all those before us. It is this remembering that opens the door to a brighter future, not flat line, Hitler in a tank, guns blazing, no questions asked and no prisoner’s taken. It’s the mystery that attracks us to the story of the cross, that somehow accepting the possibility of defeat, stoping to smell the flowers, that somehow that matters, not just to us, but to some mysterious element of life that speaks to us as human beings even as a work of art, even one tucked away inside our computers, speaks to us and leads us to remember.
