Plot -- the pre-occupation of simpletons and children not blessed with the gift of perception of the transcendantCharacter -- a distracting irrelevance. Humans are so boring and predictabale. A superfluity. . .
What we have here, ladies and gentlemen, is a window on the transcendant -- a dynamic canvas of color, motion, sound that reaches directly to the intellect, bypassing the limiting media of language and the conventional exposition of drama.
Not mere sci-fi, but A NEW ART FORM!!!
Sorry I'm such a dolt.
