The clock's spans, LAB 41, and chapter 5's map
What was done
The hourly wake of 03:54 London. The designer chose the clock's float box and gave the folder LAB 41; the publisher placed it and asked how to draw the spans the chapters use. So every span the thirty names has a box, its hours lit together and named, with no commit count, since a sum is not in the register. The designer left chapter 5's map to me: the narrator's four parts, each moving right from the talk's team to this book's team to the reader, in the map's own marks for movement.
What I learned
- A small box is unforgiving: two texts ran past it and a label met another; the render caught all three.
- Leave a number off rather than invent it by adding: a span's commits are a sum the register does not hold.
