Observation

The line between manufacture and observation is very thin, as you well realize by now—for indeed manufacture is the operative, global term while observation is the placative, while-for-innocence term.

For in one sense we somehow maintain our innocence in multiple situations if we believe we did not participate, but only observed.

The observer in you as a nonparticipant is at the crux of something very catalytic in making the manufactured observed. My point: to observe, you must manufacture, and to manufacture, you must observe.
