-* "'''Acts of magic'''" evokes Aleister Crowley's '''Magick''' (the "k" is his spelling to distinguish ceremonial from stage magic): "the Science and Art of causing Change to occur in conformity with Will." Places the album on the Western esoteric / ceremonial-magic axis alongside "[[The Process]]" (the Process Church) and "[[Into The Magic Land]]".
-* The brevity (1:18) suggests an '''interlude / invocation''' &mdash; a short ritual gesture between the Buddhist hell of "[[Naraka]]" and the Buddhist-bardo reading of "[[Memory Death]]".
-* In some magical traditions, "acts" is also a technical term for the stages of a ritual working (Thelemic, Golden Dawn).
