 Presocratic Paradoxes   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Guthrie suggests that for Anaximander this conception of apeiron as externally unbounded is rooted in the word's use to mean 'ring' or 'sphere,' on whose surface one may travel for an indefinite period of time without coming to a bounding line.
Apeiron in the internal sense is to be an indeterminate whole, indivisible into parts; if something has no parts then it has no internal boundaries.
Perhaps a metaphorical projection of Anaximander's apeiron is at the heart of our notion of universal truth, for to be culture-bound is to be bound relative to the perspective of one's culture, while one answer to the relativist is to appeal to the notion of intercultural truth.

Apeiron was an interpretation of Atari’s successful Centipede and Millipede, but with fancier graphics, sound effects, and slightly more varied game features.
Apeiron X doesn’t have the sophisticated 3D graphics and online competition many modern gamers demand, but it offers simple and satisfying gameplay that can rapidly become addictive.
Some of the simple gameplay additions in Apeiron are so obvious (such as coin-collecting bonus frenzies that often distract the player and get them killed, reflected bullets, and mushrooms that dislodge and fall when shot) that it is surprising they were not included in the arcade originals.

 Quodlibet Online Journal: De-Mything the Logos: Anaximander's Apeiron and the Possibility of a Post-Metaphysical ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
When we posit the apeiron, or the primal possibility, as an actual, existing source, whence all is derived, then we are broaching a metaphysical thought-mode, and foisting it upon an expression that was made before metaphysics was even possible.
And since the apeiron is precisely that which is ever flowing and boundless, only that which strives for fixity, or reposeful, static Being, can possibly find offense in the utilization of a given possibility for the purpose, not of ek-sistence or persistence in externality, but of eternal and autonomous establishment.
Since all things flow back into the apeiron, and out of it again, for all eternity, the injustice spoken of must itself be something that passes away, and is therefore not an injustice against a metaphysical or cosmological order.
