Notes:
"A triptych opening to a corporeal codex" at head of title. "Letterpress printed on a Vandercook 4 ... The typefaces are Jenson and Whitney. The materials are Lettra, Folio, faux leather, and Zanders Elefantenhaut."--Back cover. "Scientifically capricious, yet unequivocally misleading reveals heretofore ineffabilities & invisibilities, fluctuating states of the microcosm, the macrocosm, and the elliptically vast metaphorical. Inspired by torso woman, a genuine anatomical model of serene evisceration, to be remotely understood ..."--Front cover. "This book has been on my mind for quite some time. The project galvanized in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris at the Musée des Arts et Métiers where outlandish & ingenious works of science and industry are displayed. In the deep and meandering stacks of UC Berkeley's Doe Library, I found late 19th-century and early 20th-century laboratory catalogs from Geneva, Berlin, London and San Francisco; the scientific instruments are culled from these treasures. The rest of the images, I drew."--Back cover. Cover title. Library has copy no. 19. IaU Limited edition of 57.
