This note was taped to the front of The Book of Marks for the Ardeches show:

The Book of Marks [In Progress]
(A poem of data)
This book could be seen as four different things:
1. As a manifestation of an insane obsession;
2. As absurd text;
3. As a book written by aliens with alien text and alien design, or
4. As a book symbolic of the human Quest for Knowledge. This book contains information in sectors, each swiggle and doodle symbolic of “what we know”. Nature is chaos – a backdrop without definition. The grid with all it’s regularity and simplicity is the product of the human mind, and is imposed upon nature in the form of classification. Through our science of classification we create a sense of order out of nature, against its blank white (a mixture of all the colours) backdrop. The book is a linear time based medium, encapsulating a beginning, a middle, and an end. Thus, every drawn in square could symbolize something we know and every blank square could symbolize something we have yet to learn.
Notice how the beginning of the book is full.
Notice how the end of the book is empty.
Notice the holes.
Notice that the book is in progress.
