Short journal · Original editorial · Originality through constraints
A constraint blocks the point the piece needs to make.
A constraint can make a choice visible. Limit one feature while leaving others open, then inspect what the limit made possible and what it blocked. Keep the experiment reversible; the constraint is a tool for this attempt, not a law.
Relax one rule deliberately and note what becomes possible.
A useful next step can be modest. Name what would count as enough for this version, then allow the rest to wait.
