Additional notes:
"The lines of text incorporated into these prints are appropriated titles from the table of contents found in the landmark book, The Senses Considered as Perceptual Systems, by James J. Gibson, Houghton Mifflin Company, Boston, 1966. Though it does explore aspects of visual perception, my project is not intended as commentary on Dr. Gibson's profound and important work. I am, instead working in the tradition of the cento--or collage poem--pairing Gibson's evocative section titles with my prints, to create a book-length visual/textual poem."--Cover page [2]
