Something about the extreme improbability that "some things" have to be "something", or the
arbitrary aspect of language: its completeness, meaningfulness and meaninglessness, chaos, systems,
structures, combinations, multitudes and choices. It is dedicated to all the words that exist, do
not exist, will exist or once existed.
In these books is printed the output of a small and rather simple algorithm that I wrote in
2018: all the permutations of the 26 letters of the Latin alphabet from two to five letters. It's a
simple idea, but it gives an overwhelming number of results.
In simpler terms, it's everything you can ever possibly write with the Latin alphabet up to five
letters.
These are books to interact with. People browsing them are invited to circle in red the words
that they find in whatever language they speak or know. They have been designed as a gathering
point where the audience can meet and share.
I also give readings of them, reading them from the beginning and starting each new performance
with the word I reached in the previous one.
This work is a tool, the starting point of wider projects.
