Vórtice Magnético ou Mecanismo de Dobra Fantasmática

“Time is that which ends. Time is limited time experienced by a sentient creature. Sentient of time, that is – making adjustments to time in terms of what Korzybski calls neuro-muscular intention behaviour with respect to the environment as a whole..." - William S. Burroughs. As a time indexing device, it's capabilities are limited to a finite quantity of space over which it pairs images to time codes. However, a strange element disrupts the circuit, a ghost, a Thing, an imperfect double which overcodes the space that the device travels. So, a time accident specific to this technical apparatus is created where two different temporalities compete for the same space, the electronic limbo where a temporal chimera coalesces.
