PUBLISHER'S NOTE: This is a work of fiction. Characters, names places and incidents are the product of the author's imagination or are used in a fictitious manner. Any resemblance to actual persons living or dead, locales, events is entirely coincidental. All texts and photographs are originally published under a pseudonym and were intended as experiments in the usage of disposable forms of articulation for the purposes of thought control. For example, because art is the vehicle of self-expression, it was thought that criticism would be an effective way of effectuating a hostile takeover of the artist's attempt at self-presentation. In other words, the original image would be seized, translated into a different medium (i.e. language), and then forced to say things never intended by the artist.
