The 12hr Isbn-Jpeg Project
The 12hr Isbn-Jpeg Project
You begin to sense the byshadows that stretch from the awe of global
dominance. How the intersecting systems help pull us apart, leaving us
vague, drained, docile, soft in our inner discourse, willing to be
shaped, to be overwhelmed -- easy retreats, half beliefs. Works of art
are complex formal interventions within discursive traditions and their
myriad filiations. These interventions are defined precisely by their
incomparable capacity to trace the dynamics of historical process in
paradoxical gestures of simultaneously prognostic and mnemonic
temporalities. | __| | | | (_) | | __/ (__| |_ _ | | | '_ \ / _ \

Every 12 hours, another!... view them, re-post `em, save `em, trade
`em, print `em, even publish them...
Here`s how:
Look for the 12-hr-icon. Heavy traffic may require you to specify files
more than once! Anarchie, Fetch, CuteFTP, TurboGopher...
~ E-mail -> If you only have access to email, then you can use FTPmail
to do essentially the same thing. Send a message with a body of 'help'

-- The image was to make nothing visible but their connection with one
another by space and air, yet each surrounded by the unique aura that
disengages every deeply seen image from the world of irrelevant
relationships and calls forth a tremor of astonishment at its fateful
necessity. Thus from artworks of dead masters, over-life-size
strangeness whose names we do not know and do not wish to know, look out
at us enigmatically as symbols of all being.

Big Grey Bricks: This project also serves as a rehearsal for its
culmination as a series of offset-printed volumes: each 800+ full-bleed
pages (5x8"_300lpi), where the full integrated rhythm of
greyscale-sequence can be more intricately resolved. I'd provide all
design, prepress and production.
