The word blueproof is composed of letters written by the three year old Rose. These are the child’s first attempts at writing. With time, her hand will become more skilled, the girl will learn to read and go to school. There, she will acquire definitions and rules of behaviour. She will learn discipline generated by an institution. She will be shaped by orders and prohibitions. She will encounter the disapproval of reckless authority, and the strict rules of the game imposed on her will be unambiguous. From now on, “entering directives into the formula” she will always obtain a concrete reply, the same in every case.
