In the second part of
this work phase (1984-86), a molecular-like growth is
created with the "four-cut" as its seed. Growth results from
algorithms of graph patterns deciding which "out-lines" of the
quadrants created in the preceding generation is used to produce
the "four-cut" of the next generation. In a third part, the
contours of the "four-cut" is seen as a "shadow-form", a two
dimensional visual history of the cube-growth. The connecting path
between the center point of one "four-cut" and the center point of
the next "four-cut" is shown as a black line, the growth-line.
Similar to the spine in a body, the growth-line is embedded in the
shadow-form.
