About Us

»Diffraction does not produce ›the same‹ displaced, as reflection and refraction do. Diffraction is a mapping of interference, not of replication, reflection, or reproduction. A diffraction pattern does not map where differences appear, but rather maps where the effects of differences appear.«

Donna Haraway, »The Promises of Monsters«
