SPOTLYRICS
The book SPOTLYRICS contradicts the above mentioned predicament of FLUSSER and demands a place for letters in a modern, computerized, future-oriented world. In the book, letter strings are presented as poetic verses for reading. The 46656 circular letter strings are arranged alphabetically on 407 pages. This is a tribute to concrete poetry. The title SPOTLYRICS is a reference to the spot paintings of DAMIEN HIRST, who worked on chromatic circular color depiction in the last century.
