It's interesting that details like these give the impression of being generic, things that could be seen anywhere. And yet, I'm sure they are NOT generic in that there is surely enough information in each photo to characterize a unique locale. And yet, we are not dealing with a hologram here. Assuming then that we are not dealing with information coded within a hologram, how much does the part reveal about the whole?
There's a hole in the floor!
Could this be any old house anywhere? Or could it only be a particular old house in a very precise location with a very definite history?
In this case, I happen to know which old house this is, and where it is.
But by this time we've moved on to another old house, a different one.
