I think borders are interesting, too. And I also think it might be impossible to discuss borders without being completely within the ideological and material implications of the 2D page.
And re: microcosm---I think there's a lot here to connect to the panopticon and imaginings of different systems of societal control. Does microcosm-as-revealing-truth result in thinking that translates both to methods of visual representation AND methods of implementing societal control/imagining how society works, is controlled? One of the books Nick has, I forget the title, is about the internet as exemplifying a new kind of control, and it talks about the panopticon and the control society.
