	In Conference -- HOW2
		Fraser's revisionary "female collective consciousness" engenders linguistic traces ("messages") that coincide within the palimpsest, not only creating imaginary intersections where there could be none in history, but also reinventing in the present what has been lost.
		In Fraser's ironic corrective of tradition, "flaw" (as in, traditionally: of feminine character) displaces "flow" (as in: aesthetically pleasing), and conscious desire is "corrected" not by punishment but by "translation" (a typo leading to metaphor and insight [the self-as-gift]): an "accident" to which the woman can "give herself."
		Fraser describes the process of writing this last section as the unplanned, formal contextualization of an "out-of-context" experience. An experiment with mechanical/formal repetition leads to a visual discovery (the shape of a wing) and an insight that "being taken outside of my normal frames of reference" catalyzes.
