How to Read Track B
Track B is not decoration and not a code to be cracked. Seven marks, read left to right, subject then operation then result.
The set
□
Ground — The blank sheet. Where an argument is allowed to start.
▮
Press — Ink laid down. A statement that cannot be taken back.
≡
Order — Ruled lines. Structure imposed, for good or ill.
⚙
Machine — Any system that runs whether or not you consent.
⛓
Chain — Dependency. What the machine uses to keep you near it.
↻
Loop — Repetition held long enough to be examined.
✕
Refusal — The mark you supply. Nothing else in the set is yours.
A worked example
□▮✕
Blank sheet, ink laid down, refusal. In English: we printed it, and printing it was the argument.
