Description
PURE MEANS draws fictional writing, philosophy and politics tight together. With two scraps of paper, scribbled down words, a crumpled photographic image, along with a gesture and an utterance saying 'This voice is not mine', this book unashamedly asks us to become visionaries and see what 'pure means' can be. Littered with experiments, not only with writing and words, but also with the art of citation without citation marks, glosses and glossary, PURE MEANS troubles the preponderance of government today. It brings an 'insurrection of being' into sight, and it is magical to see.
