Work of Meta-Art in the Age of Symbiotic Reproduction contains 10 minimal flash engines (also refered to as "memes") that enable the user to make conceptual audio/visual compositions.

Using dual loops, vectors, and allegorical images as patterns, tye creates meditative environments which suggest the expansion of culture...

my actual statement so far reads as thus "i am at my personal best when i can be left alone to play in the dirt". beat that with your gender discrimination immersive class cultural miasma sculpture concepts blah blah blah.
