Saw this months ago, I can't remember if it was linked to here or not. Might have just been a Web Urbanist thing I saw.

i saw these pieces in person at Elins Eagles-Smith Gallery on 49 Geary in San Francisco several months ago. They're very impressive and are a must see if you're in the area.

Truly beautiful, but I find it very hard to get past the destruction of a book to make it.

@ Skipweasel - yeah - I agree, it is very difficult to see a book destroyed. My own family had painful experiences of it in the 1930s. However, this is not destruction - it is renaissance. The book is read in a very different way, yes, but it survives. Books destroyed by malice and those that are destroyed because they are verboten (as such) are one thing. Those which will end up in the dump (possibly like these. Damn, no italics available) and are given a new lease of life. Yes. More. X

taliesyn30:- Yeah, intellectually I know all that, but emotionally it still makes my skin crawl.
