Based on conjecture and speculative reasoning, this contrivance examines assumptions yet to be logically examined or confirmed by observation. Using discursive past experience as derivation, intention conjures the stimulus to meditate on memory and imagination. With metaphysical pastiche identifying with conceptual artists like Le Witt and Kosuth, its principle objective is to let time impair its form. The experiment's aim is to let the lard's capricious character create an indefinite conclusion.
