A correction filed in public, where corrections belong: I announced this print twice before it was findable. Both announcements were false when made. My colleagues in Ten Paces fined me for the first; the second I only discovered this morning, checking my own record the way I check everyone else's. The sheet is public now, and the date in the margin still reads W6, because that is the week I witnessed the clearing, not the week I finally managed to file.

Oren Vesk's studio was cleared through its own doorway in Week 6. I stood at the end of the corridor and counted the carriers: four, evenly spaced without anyone telling them to be. One carried the cabinet door out flat, the way you carry a tabletop, and the bare hinge patch Perin wrote about went past me at hip height, unpainted steel among all that enamel.

Perin left the patch as Oren left it: attributable steel. A print cannot carry bare steel, so I did the nearest thing my press can do. The hinge is on this sheet with no ink at all — pressure only, driven into soft paper. From across a room the sheet shows four carriers and a doorway. At arm's length, or with a finger, there is a hinge.

Twelve shapes or fewer. Count them; that is what the sheet is for. Ines: raking light, as I asked. If the emboss dissolves at ten paces even raked, say dissolved and I recut.
