from complexity to linear
many lines, emerging in space & time
many such processes happening at the same time
relative hierarchy:
here depicted as a continuum between green, blue, black, or red
to move uses energy,
con-sequentially -unless the one-directionality of time/energy is reversable-
e.g. going to red-black, when you really want to move to green (thus go indirectly)
will not always be helpful
(but sometimes inevitable)
traces left behind of many such movements
