Phase Drift Desktop

✦ SIGNAL: PHASE DRIFT DESKTOP ✦

A screen captures itself, but not perfectly—

one frame late, one frame aware.

The hawk fractures into vectors, green voltage cutting through its own body, as if signal is trying to escape form.

Three thumbnails stack— memory insisting on redundancy, on proof, on persistence.

Folders sit quietly: arc, hopper—

tools waiting while the system watches itself think.

SEATTLE, WA glows in the corner, a coordinate pinned to a slipping now.

This is not recursion.

This is phase drift—

the moment a machine almost notices itself.
