Misreading windows as screens, and screens as windows, suggests that the frame, or the boundary between what is physical and what is flattened, remains delicately intact.

By tracing the historical overlap of screens and windows, we can re-imagine each as a mechanism beyond its physical form, ultimately representing a way of seeing.
