“‘Incidence’ of something that could violently or imperceptibly affect the entire environment and our own nature; ‘Incidence’ of light rays coming from the Sun that show us the truth, or coming from sources that can control the visual result; ‘incidence’ of our gazes from our own points of view; “incidence” of and on reality itself; ‘Incidence’ as signs left in time, as simple attestation of life going on, or as warnings,” Nevercrew explained.
