Thanks, Anne, for these images.  I thought of "conveyors" when I read "converes."  Your post also makes me recall a line of Plato, which while I can't now source it I remember dwelling on in a grad school class at St. John's College: "Form is that which follows color."  I like the idea of defining something in terms of contiguity, rather than interiority. Also, these pictures wake me up to something about mosaic -- fragments into new pieces, including open spaces and hard lines that preserve the fragmentation.  This also seems like a helpful way to think about form.
