WRITING MACHINE: http://www.alansondheim.org/writingmachine.mp4

A module describes an orbit; particles are emitted at regular intervals. The 
direction of the particle stream is determined by local 'weather' or 'wind' in 
second life. The stream is jerked by the orbit, and this results in the 
repeated generation of similar graphemes or artifacts in the air, which travel 
along with the stream, slowly disappearing at the farther end. Perhaps this is 
one source for the sign: something is configured and emitted at regular 
intervals, the locals stand around and watch.
