Lower case typed font of a straight vertical line with another line of text winding around it like a snake.


[tan-renga, untitled] deciduous conifers the secret not enjoying it

        seabreeze lifts 

        a mini skirt

Lots of text in loops like dolphins or birds or flower petals all around a page's center.

    Light Mana
fooly electric shoals of koi live live neon

    winsome bird

    before the blur
virtual fall the numbers behind purple rain 

    faraday cage 

    color coding

    french ballets 
data castles arabesque in replica dreams

    singularity

    fake it  

    till you make it[split sequence]

Marjorie Pezzoli       & Jerome Berglund

Tiny lines of text looking like a mountain or a city scape with Throw Down in larger black type arched around the top peaks. Marjorie Pezzoli and Jerome Berglund in angled smaller text underneath that.

        Throw Down 
Sisyphus smiles

        high John 

        the Conqueror 

        swine keep disappearing
daisies cheer
        moonbeams laugh        mannish boy dreams         petal drops
rock-paper-scissors 

        Nana Buluku
