Up Front: It's Not Sex, and It's Not Education, in reply to Biobbs,
They weren’t pop-up books though

The disjuncture you describe between how familiar places look and how they exist in the mind is familiar to Christchurch people. I suppose our memories gradually get overwritten. I thought this was a poetic visualisation of change in a landscape: artfully merged images of Toronto past and present.
ETA:
Flying home from the successful job interview, the astrophysicist in the family says he felt as if he’d landed the biggest fish in the world.

Congratulations, and welcome home! :-)
