" ... The insignificant reinforcer - tool of classroom or office now given its own polo minted freshness & obviousness. Rows of zeroes no longer consigned to the margin. Eye-eye! Naughtiness & (un)balanced sheets. O,o,o ... the absurdity of buying pages of ... holes ... !"

High winds & rain lashing Belgium today. What better to do than batten down the hatches, go upstairs and make a book?

Here's a first attempt at Japanese side-stitch binding and distressed papers. I'm reasonably pleased with the result (ham-fisted as I am). It's labour intensive, though - this one will be limited to an edition of six.

the fullcrumb series on show in the U.K.

ONE DAY EXHIBITION AT SIDESHOW, NOTTINGHAM, OCT 30:

WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS KEEPING IT MOVING

*

Welcome to anyone who's landed here following the link from the exhibition.

Announcing a bold new publishing venture and its first volume: Turn Over A New Leaf from A New Leaf Press.

thwart out now!

Copies will be sent to the usual subscribers. Anyone else let me know.

Output has been lamentably low these past months and so here's something to welcome in October - the appropriately entitled autumnble.

Copies going out to the usual suspects and anyone else who'd like a copy.

... said Valery - or something like that.

If so, then here is the result. After a rather idle, distracted & unfocused week an 'occasional' volume of pwoermds (or plain fresh spun puns) by way of a response (diagnosis?) of Geof Huth's "condition" as described in his Blog on the 10th August. The first of the fullcrumb horseries ...




Copies going out to the usual suspects ... anyone else?

Each issue of :nfold:ng is a folded A4 sheet giving four small pages/images plus an inner A4 image. Easy peasy.

More will appear as & when.

Copies going out to the usual subscribers (& some new ones too).

If you want a copy & you're not yet on my mailing list - send an e-mail to: belgianwaffle@hotmail.com

THE BARCODEX

Volumes I - III

The first volume now done. The cover is a revised image of the one for Gary Barwin.

Let me know if you're interested in a copy or the set.

Thanks, of course, to Satu Kaikkonen for her assignment on the Time For A Vispo site (http://timeforavispo.blogspot.com/).

Fresh off the press!

Wri.the - a little volume of asemic writings.

The first attempt at printing on fine paper - and my scanner doesn't like the grey tone of the cover. So these photos are done with Photo Booth. And badly at that.

A new experiment in making a folded book - here the physical constraints dictated the words.

I don't seem to be able to work out a way of setting up a template to do multiples (the nature of the folding means different angles for the pages). The only solution will be to do one-sided prints and then cut and glue. Unless, that is, anyone can suggest an alternative?

sun flowers. snow upon mountain tops.
by silver lines of water running between.
O the unutterable.

if it could be concealed it would be. on
the fire & pour it on. & to go along the shore.

Out today. Usual subscribers will get a copy. Anyone else, let me know.

The Sticky Pages Press goes public at the Art Gallery, St John's International School, Waterloo (Belgium).

Let me know if you want one.

The Fullcrumb Series no.s 1-20 (i-iv)

Not an easy title to type into Blogger - but you'll get the idea. Three more main volumes to do plus apendisease I-VI - a sort of hold-all for pwoermds that arrived late or don't seem to belong anywhere else.

• t x t/e = (no. 2)

• riversing (no. 18)

and from a couple of days ago ...

• poeworms (no. 9)
• punishment (no. 10)
