&¨¨&¨&¨&&¨ &&¨¨¨¨&&¨&
¨&¨&&&&&¨& the seagull is a metaphysics trick; a ¨¨&¨¨¨&¨&&
&&&&¨¨¨¨&& world-builder's shortcut, to define a ¨¨&&¨¨&&&¨
&¨¨¨&¨¨¨&¨ section of reality and imply its size: &¨&¨&¨&¨¨&
¨&¨¨&&¨¨&& place a flock of birds at the edge and &&&&&&&&¨&
&&&¨&¨&¨&¨ make their calls tesselate over the ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨&&
¨¨¨&&&&&&& entire volume &¨¨¨¨¨¨¨&¨
¨¨¨&¨¨¨¨¨¨ &&¨¨¨¨¨¨&&
&¨¨&&¨¨¨¨¨ a seagull can be defined by as little &¨&¨¨¨¨¨&¨
&&¨&¨&¨¨¨¨ as five vertices; six triangles. (i &&&&¨¨¨¨&&
¨¨&&&&&¨¨¨ would recommend handling in swarms of ¨¨¨¨&¨¨¨&¨
¨¨&¨¨¨¨&¨¨ at least a dozen birds.) ¨¨¨¨&&¨¨&&
