 I was reminded of the above 'Chanogram' (a Charlie Chan aphorism) when out on a walk yesterday (between North Grimston and Settrington). The 1920s to 1940s film detective had many such sayings, illuminating (or not) his wise, 'oriental' insights. The Charlie Chan films merit a whole chapter in my book of the moment, Buddha in the Machine: Art, Technology and the meeting of East and West. So spotting this hole in a mirror smooth pond seemed like a remarkable, if meaningless coincidence. But in a curious, Zen-like way, it was a thing of beauty, based on the simplest of technologies: a drain pipe.
