From the publisher:

“This publication contains cut-outs of images, stolen words from a book and snippets of a film script. It hosts snatches from reality purloined from films, books, dialogues, and thoughts. They have been essential during certain times of thinking here and elsewhere. Stitched together, they re-connect for another temporal duration of the real, interrupted by a book fold, a crevice, a blind spot, and a stammering. Making these pages public here marks a stoppage, a pause in a process of thinking – on the TV-series The Wire, on Jean Genet, the GDR, exhibits and exhibiting, the manifestation of ideas and display.

This act of exposure suggests a blurring of Western imperatives on notions of past and future, constituting a singular exhibition-time when the reader holds the book between her hands as a folded time. It neither shows an outside nor inside. It unfolds a texture implicating us in a state of not quite knowing what is going on here. However, the time-shared entanglement might enable us to enter a form of production in which an inhibition turns into an emancipatory mode for exhibition. It is an approach to making something public aiming to re-think the constitution of display without representing a time or a place, but activating the real between you and I. This form of exposure is rather a condition of reflection that locates the political in the interstice between images, words and sounds.

“Put all the images in language in a place of safety and make use of them, for they are in the desert, and it?s in the desert we must go and look for them.” Jean Genet
