 This procedure helps us to think about software as cultural object. Something "deeply woven into contemporary life –economically, culturally, creatively, politically– in manners both obvious and nearly invisible." (Software Studies, 2009), and not just as technical tool existing in a vacuum.

-aha how do we define actors?
 
-it reminds me of this OOO statement:

-objects sink into themselves

-that is an effective and graphical way to describe technical reference pages and auto generated API specs, with nested nested nested layers of list.
