and so, i trace
there is something powerful in repetitions
"second nature" Taussig says
replication
makes the mundane
but also empowers
tracings
mimic
building up symbols
The polarity between the sensational and the mundane is also the dichotomy between the sensational and the sensory in which the latter is left unmarked, unvoiced and unattended to, as a banal element of the everyday.
