Note:
The tautological idea of molding a tubular balloon to mimic the shape of a regular balloon explores the dominos pattern of creation and existence. Static electricity created from the balloon's contact with my Afro, magnetizes it to the wall as sunset beams from the prairies of Winnipeg city cast a shadow of "stylized 9", therefore edited to form a pattern of three rows and columns.
