Those exploding stars (just seen) might simply be the sound of a telephone ringing late at night in Alamogordo, New Mexico, a collect call from noone to nowhere. Jacob is asleep, and the sound become stars. The medium of these collapsing cartoon stars, whatever they are, takes us non-coincidentally by dissolve to Jacob Maker, who owns an eye in this story. Jacob is walking across a red dirt field near his desert home in Alamogordo. They say red dirt is emblem of a place once humid with palm trees and animals. Jacob is the hero of the film. Beyond him is a white strip of White Sand, his penultimate destination in the story of his story.
