whereas an academic might pick one image and study it extensively. but there’s something satisfying about the approach here, where focus keeps shifting to new expansions/extensions of the initial landscape, so you get a series of explicated images

Luke can't control his attention, really sad. A child. Whereas I am master and commander of my own ship.
