A buffer is a temporary location for a transitional state: a layer that sits between one thing and another. A buffer is provisional, protective, and a postponement of transmission. A buffer gathers around, ahead of, and on the surface of images. Buffering takes the place of a clear image, in advance of its arrival. To buff an object is to try to make it shine, to make it ready to show itself. A buffer is a promise.
