A book by De Villo Sloan which references the mail art book call – A Book about Books.
By uniting the text and images of multiple sources we are brought to the point of remembering that no book is ever read in isolation – it consist of other texts, books living in books.
Diane Keyes – The Was of Chloroplast: A TINY boekie made from ‘trash’. On the International Union of Mail Artists, this sort of work is commonly known as ‘Trashpo’.

Quantifying metalanguage to this degree is droll but dry. I could get more out of it if less had been put into it. “I never metalanguage I couldn’t order beer in.” Buhzingga.

AH! It would be you who visited and got this
… I have to wait and see with anxious trepidation whether or not these materialize into images or not… Yip, I’m being serious – the others did – well – SOME did!

Hi Cheryl, I don’t see “Meta-L,” just a bunch of computer code. In a way, it’s an improvement. Great concept piece!
You should send this to Ron Silliman.

Too much! My “Desolation Angel in the Ruined Theater of Fluxus” has been defaced & posted in an online exhibition. Now the genius of DVS reduced to computer code! A conspiracy!

I can claim no responsibility for this stroke of genius. It was Ether. All by himself. I posted images, He gave me this? What can I do? Do not despair. Its a consequence of taking the Red Pill within the Minxus Matrix.

Looks good — like the beautiful script of an unknown language which says “Pick up your laundry by 5 p.m” to the cognoscenti.
