And to push the literalisms one step farther, the transatlantic slave trade is still thought of in terms of it's triangular route...

Excited to read on alongside your work, the abstract/concrete distinction seems like a great basis from which to operate especially since so much of how land is mapped/divided/politicized is tied up in a confusing mess of "natural" borders and borders that are wholly fictional (ie. demarcating place X as place X and place Y as place Y either because there's a river between them or simply because that is where the line is for no physical reason).

Really good work. I like that part about the dedication because I never considered it before and it makes a lot of sense.
