Tedium breeds its own reverie. Here becomes like there becomes like could be anywhere. This forms a coincidence with the generic: Repetitions erode sense of place and make buildings seem less substantial. The logic of these displacements causes things to come adrift. Little houses sink  and burn. Furniture falls and breaks in an empty car park. Events of small destruction. Pathetic but momentarily
cathartic. – Patrick Jolley
