| The red oxide is the shape of the floor of the administration area on the other side of the wall, as it would appear from a position in the corridor. | ||||||||||||||
| "One way to draw attention to the way the corridor structure became an anachronism when the administration area was constructed is to imagine the shape of the floor of the administration area as it would look like from a position at the end of the corridor - as if you could give back the corridor its function by imaginative will. For example, we could change the rules of visual perception by imagining that we have x-ray vision and could see through walls. If this was the case, then any part of the administration area, such as the floor, could be drawn over the walls at this end of the corridor, and if the calculations were right, this shape would correspond to the shape of the floor of the administration area that you would see if you had x-ray vision and stood in a particular spot." | ||||||||||||||
