"-just a Void at which we are required to marvel without looking behind the curtain"

...Except that it's a void at which we marvel *and then look behind the curtain anyway*. We get to study and admire each new curtain and it's relationship to the void, and then we go past the curtain to find the next one. It's just one big art-show of void-encompassing curtainage, where the tour group consists of not only of those who wanna press on as quickly as possible, but also those who wanna stay and admire one particular curtain in depth, and those who, having spotted a nifty design on one of the curtains decide to take a quick sketch of it and then run back to entrance to start printing it on T-shirts. =:o}
