Cult of Ecstasy use to reflect the image of the parts in their ring, and see the whole in the reflection. Sons of Ether just measure things with their meters, while Choristers touch the parts, seeing how they should fit together. They tickle the object with their feather and beats their drums to awaken the sleepy spirits. If it succeeds the spirits awaken, and the mage can talk with them. The spirits of normal objects are often rather simpleminded and fairly powerless, but generally very knowledgeable about the nature and use of the object.
Some objects can have fairly wilful and powerful spirits, like certain cars or buildings.
