intervals of clouds and sun
This book can be read
in any order,
as when you reflect
on what you see
in the changing
shapes of clouds.
You may see something
in the photograph
on the front cover -
if so, you may not be able
to 'un-see' it - as it becomes
a non-reversible perception.
preface
On this planet there are countries which are open,
and others which are closed.
The same principle applies (and there is a continual fight)
in the countries of the mind.
in the countries of the mind is a collection of 131 short texts and images, presented using the predictability of meteorological data. This liberates the reader to read the book in any order they want, as the order of the items is as predictable as the weather.
in the countries of the mind is part of a long tradition of books in which texts are illuminated/juxtaposed with images, whose combinations extend the travels of the mind. Like the weather, this book ignores national borders.
This book is the first in a new series from OCATILLO: scattering texts.
This series is a natural home for books which cannot fit into any other series, which is why they scatter all over the place, trying to escape Russell’s Paradox.
