The basic technique here is that the text itself (with the font it uses) is used as fabrics and ornaments rather than a display of actual information, just like tone clusters being used as "notes with extra harmonics" rather than chords in the sense of the theory of harmony. Fixating on the actual meaning of the "contents" of such fabric and ornament in this case is akin to asking if one particular splash of color on a canvas itself represents the sunset or the reflection of the sea - the idea is that things don't work that way.

網頁真是個難以施加一般的 principle 的媒介。網頁不像印刷品，它沒有固定的大小和比例，有時甚至連保證大小比例不變都做不到。習慣於爲印刷品做設計的大師，面對這種宛若橡膠或黏土一般的材料，大概至少在最開始都會不得不感到某種困惑；對於像我這種只細讀過小半本 Massimo Vignelli 的人，這種困惑只會更加廣泛和嚴重。有意向的人，究竟要如何才能在自己和塑料假花一般的“潮流”之間畫出界線，將真正的現代性注入到面向這種媒介的設計？究竟要對所有相關的一切都計較到什麼程度，才能讓這種對超脫的企圖與富含現代性的美學一起精準無誤地刺入觀看者的感官？
