On each page of this book one of eighteen identical photographs of a single billboard in Curacao advertising “Hipnotismo” is laid out next to a Mayan numeral and its Arabic counterpart. Beneath these visual pairings runs a text composed when the artist was back in New York under the influence of Severo Sarduy, Roland Barthes, Guy Debord, Charles Ludlam and especially Raoul Vaneigem. --from Printed Matter
