[Architectural Letter] / Nikonova, Rea; Sackner MA., 1994
This is a photocopy of an art work based on a letter Marvin Sackner sent to Nikanova with a copy of "The Beauty in Breathing" catalog. In the original drawing contained in the Sackner Archive, the artist retyped fragments of the text of the letter and integrated them with colored rectangles of various dimensions. The same letters in different words are connected with freely drawn colored, lines ending in arrows. Nikonova calls this work, "architectural treatment," perhaps relating to the notion of Kamensky's ferro-concrete poetry. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Ark Codex / White, Derek., 2013
Ark Codex +_ 0 is an authorless book object of art & text inked on pre-existing book pages & reformulated to induce an abstracted retelling of Noah's fabled tale. Ark Codex speaks for itself - a self-contained archeological archive of language for the sake of language, an artifact collaged of image & text mined from unspecified or unknown origins: deconstructed, replicated, reappropriated, cut-up, traced, erased, distressed, deterritorialized, rubbed, stained, repurposed, then reconstituted & expressed in a feedback loop driven by the same chance operations that guide natural selection. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
