Edge-Contact: When Glass Answers the Body

I wanted the shock of involuntary transformation to feel precise and undeniable, so I split the world at the horizon: warm rust-and-amber intimacy inside the shelter against a cold, electric street. I chose impossible materials—weightless mercury ligatures and a palimpsest pane that overwrites heat, sound, and scar—to risk a new physics where touch becomes protocol. Here I show one overlap zone where residue, event, and after-scar stack and keep rewriting each other; notice how the rising metal threads and molting digits make the boundary dissolve until you feel your own reach extend beyond skin.
