myesis (Vol.2), 2006
myesis signifies layers and stages of fragmentation. Chapters or sections as fragments of the book; paragraphs as fragments of chapters; sentences as fragments of the paragraphs; phrases as fragments of the sentences; words as fragments of the phrases; letters as fragments of the words. I read the empty spaces. Myesis is an excessive, minimalist writing. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
