- "The spontaneous perception of connectedness and meaningfulness in random phenomena: seeing patterns and connections where none exist"

- "Pattern recognition itself can morph into the disorder apophenia, 'the spontaneous perception of connections and meaningfulness in unrelated things.' Which means that even when Pollard discovers The Footage's maker, it's an ambiguous - and potentially apophenic - resolution. Are the subtlest patterns we see really there? To Gibson, the most satisfying moments of our reality are possibly just reflections of our needs and dreams."

The secret life of a syncope

 "Loss of consciousness resulting from insufficient blood flow to the brain" (or too much?): "FAINT" (is that an order?)
Blanked out & missed something
In between frames
"The loss of one or more sounds or letters in the interior of a word"
Aphasia
Fainted & lost something
Amnesia
Becoming less
"The los  of one or more sounds or letters in the interior of a word"
Is the piece greater than the whole?
Is one piece greater than another whole?
Is the whole greater than the sum of its parts?
"The los  of one or more sounds or l tters in the interior of a word"
Actors' characters have lost their memories & do not realize they were someone else---some piece of them having painted another story over the canvas of a preexisting history
"The los  of one or more s unds or l tters in the interior of a word"
Does the piece contain DNA of the whole?
"T e  l s       on     r      re s u     o  l         n  h   i   e   or     a w r   "
