## Full text

The 19 by 19 plane.
Location axis: Ppanpo, Sanpo, ... Manpo, Banpo.
Brand axis: Jjai, Chai, ... Ai, Xi.
Banpo-Xism: the hierarchy in which Banpo and Xi are highest.
Ttanpo-Taism: the hierarchy in which Ttanpo and Tai are highest.
Adjusting this is "Banpo-Xism-ism".
Then what is Banpo-Xism-ism-ism, and what is Banpo-Xism-ism?

0D: Banpo-Xism. What the user sees: "Banpo Xi". Scrolling a Reels-like feed up, down, left and right (up and down: location; left and right: brand). Like a point, the user merely navigates, passively, a two-dimensional plane that is already given. This has no effect on the two-dimensional plane or its hierarchy.

1D: Banpo-Xism-ism. What the user sees (and controls): "Banpo-Xism". Banpo-Xism is the field in which "Banpo" and "Xi" are the highest values; Ttanpo-Taism is the field in which "Ttanpo" and "Tai" are. Again Reels-like scrolling up, down, left and right. Scrolling up and down transforms the location term of the highest value: it moves an edge. Banpo-Xism becomes Ppanpo-Xism: we move from a field in which Banpo is highest to one in which Ppanpo is highest, and all the other apartment prices change too. But 1D is still less than 2D. Rather than affecting the two-dimensional plane itself, it keeps the same shape (the hierarchy stays the same) while adjusting the order and the top point of the series.

2D: Banpo-Xism-ism-ism. What the user sees (and controls): "Banpo-Xism-ism".
Banpo-Xism-ism: [the note breaks off here]
