Began work on a second Blurb book as a way to sort, consolidate, and shred old notes and photos—a book in four parts focused on four objects: original painting, disfavored novel, handmade rag rug, and an oversized catalog. Can’t find much in English translation by German artist and astrologer Thomas Ring who features in Revised Astrology. His quote about sesquisquares would serve well as epigraph: a “tear in the structure.”
