In the preface of "Loneliness and the Game", the "Interception of Time and Space" is mentioned. The following is quoted from the film review: "Jacob's Ladder—literally translated as Jacob's Ladder, started with a concept familiar to people who understand Western civilization or religion—Jacob's Ladder Cloth ladder. In the bible of Genesis 28:11-19, Jacob dreamed of seeing a ladder from heaven. Later generations called this dream ladder as Jacob’s ladder. There is another saying . In Greek mythology, a man named Jacob dreamed of climbing along a ladder to the sky to obtain the holy fire. In fact, this is just a natural phenomenon that shows the process of the generation and disappearance of electric arcs. The two roots are in the shape of horns. The tubular electrode, one pole is connected to high voltage, and the other is grounded. When the voltage rises to 50,000 volts, an arc is generated at the bottom of the tubular electrode, and the arc violently rises step by step, climbing up like clusters of sacred flames, just like a legend Jacob’s ladder. Jacob’s ladder is a scene and event that people see in the dying hallucinations. It can also be said that Jacob’s ladder is the death to heaven that only dying people can see. road."
