An un-writing of sorts

I haven't quite figured out how Kristin Prevallet arrived at the words that described each page - read about it here. The project (Merge) started when she found a copy of Samuel Beckett's The Unnamable sitting on a trash can outside a library, and dropped india ink on four of the pages ... letting the wind direct the flow of the ink. Or rather, she turned the pages so the wind could blow the ink along. A collaboration with the wind ... good ....
