IPHONE DUO Unfolded, the scene fills the left and the data sits on the right. Folded, Spectra turns to landscape for tent pose, with each scene reworked for the shorter screen. CLEAR, REDRAWN Clear is a halftone field of light. A bright, merged glow in the morning opens into a ring by midday. STORM, REDRAWN Storm is a set of vertical bands. When lightning strikes, blocks across the bands flash together and hold still. TRADITIONAL CHINESE Spectra speaks Traditional Chinese, written for readers in Taiwan.
