A logical and methodical publication of American conceptual artist, author, and teacher Donald Burgy’s fluxus instructions, cosmic hypotheticals, and visual juxtapositions.
“In effect Burgy presents us with a set of mental exercises based on the most general analytic technique now in use, Systems Theory. Here the world, and the Universe, are envisioned as a series of interlocking systems, animate and inanimate, mechanical and biological, entropic and anti-entropic. … in evolving towards more complex and distant planes of organization, Burgy defines consciousness itself: the extraction of order out of chaos, information out of noise. All possibilities become tangential.” – Jack Burnham, from the introduction
