Sims Reed: This is an innovative collaboration between Iliazd and Raoul Hausmann, one of the principal protagonists of Berlin Dada and a pioneer of phonetic and visual poetry. The preface consists of a 'Hommage illettre d'Iliazd à Raoul Hausmann': 'Je suis fier de vous rendre hommage en disposant vos poemes et vos bois ou en tenant le plioir comme une plume.'. 'The typographic layout echoes the forms in the woodcuts, suggesting an architectonic underpinning to the very essence of the work. Poems and images seem to have the same skeletal foundation to their morphology, as a result showing two aspects of a single work.' (Johanna Drucker, Iliazd and the Art of the Book). Some water staining on cover, foxing on inside pages. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Internet: Released in 1970, eccentric Sensoriality is the last book published by Hausmann in his lifetime, so that it starts after a long period of neglect, to receive the testimony of admiration from younger generations. If the book is short, it is nonetheless a huge ambition: Shaping a new psychological and social conscience by making a clean sweep of two thousand years of history. It is homo sapiens that attacks Hausmann. He is indeed that, in his eyes invented the capitalist dictatorship and limited knowledge to a purely materialistic level, preventing the development of a human type with more universal brain and sensory abilities. The new man will be equipped with a "sensory eccentric", a mental energy transcending the limits of body and mind. In this sense, Sensory eccentric is both a utopia and a ruthless and deeply pessimistic so-called modern myth of progress and civilization criticism. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
