The act of a while loop; a small collection
Is about repetition
The enactment of a syntax
On the importance of a single task
When it comes to programming the loop has its elegance for carrying a work load of going through a list of elements. The loop function neutralises our incapability of precision, making us lazy or too bright to use brute force in calculus. The while incorporates the element of time, duration or interruption of a loop.
These performances wield the while loop as a technique. By performing from a to b and over again; clear shapes and bases for rhythm start to emerge.

On the Repetitive act in weaving
"Where can we find the nuance in weaving?
Let's begin; when does the weaver start weaving?
In order to warp one needs to desire a length and width.
Estimated in yarns for each centimetre and divided in groups by shafts
This is a list of numbers
The order is important to be followed accordingly.
Are we weaving?
I am afraid not yet. Let's go back to the beginning.
Now; we have the list of numbers, the weaver is aware of the surface and can start winding up a loom.
The loom has its parameters, another pair of numbers, the warp knows the loom
The warp stringed through eyes, divided by shafts is; ready for tension.
Beamed up, the warp is stretched through the loom. Unfortunately the weaver is yarns ahead of the weaving.
Let's start at the beginning; peddle down, shafts open; to pull or to push the weft passing through, the weaver is weaving.
There, in the act of; is a finely developed sense of becoming. If your wish is to weave, and just to weave when does one know what to weave?
"There, light and shadow come to symbolise more lurking shadows; the dance between the seen and the unseen excites" [3] where the dancer becomes the dance.
