from Daphne Drillo in the Ecstasy of the Opposite Dimension: A Space Lesbian Adventure

“Dr. Roper insisted on the merits of programmability in the context of long distance communication, and especially in guerilla warfare.

FIVE HUNDRED YEARS OF MUD-WRESTLING WITH NETHERLANDISH LANDSCAPE, OR a machine for the liberation of space: Archways, rose windows, and other elements of stasis were removed; a sitelessness was encouraged. Planarity was deemphasized; arbitrary variations on the stepped and the curvilinear were attempted. Modularity almost entirely replaced functionality as the byword of the operation. One researchist came up with a stalactite-studded model painted a withering shade of magenta and sprinkled with glass dust and body glitter. Two others died while trying to dismantle phone wires in around Cheyenne. The goal of sitelessness was temporarily tabled as being perhaps beyond the capacity of the investigation, but was reinstituted upon threats of resignation from key crew members. Disgruntles members of the former faction charged the latter with bias in favor of job protectionism, while the opposition countered with personal attacks.”
