From a Log24 search for "Women's Night" —

The Mackey material, from St. Patrick's Day 2006, suggests a look
at the angels of Noah Jacobs' 1958 classic  Naming Day in Eden

Jacobs on angels —

"Their sensuous functions have been extinguished so that they
have no idea of sensible images, metaphor, tones or gestures.
They have no need in their noumenal sphere of these seductive
and puzzling artifices. Their penchant for unashamed abstraction
is the deepest strain in their make-up."

Compare and contrast —

Quilts  (for instance) as "seductive and puzzling artifices"
that embody symmetry.

Quilt geometry  as the exploitation  of symmetry.
