Scope and Contents

Schmidt writes, "On the overall square of this print each of the four units used has its own corners. Each unit is most dense in its own corner and the probability of its appearance decreases with the distance from that corner...The print was realized in 1967 using an arithmetical programme which approximates to the idea and hand set in 10 pt letterpress border material. The shuffling of the units within the subsections used was done manually and is imperfect." The units consist of small rectangles which are solid black, have a heavy outline, have a light outline, and blank spaces. The only copies of this issue are in futura sammelband. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
