- Description Of Manifestation
- This miniature has been letterpress printed on a Vandercook 4 by EVE Press in the year 2003. The text is a revision and update of part of the 'Dear Mohamed Atta' limited edition comprised of 50 letters written between September 11, 2001, and March 10, 2002. The materials used were in the studio at the time this book came to life. The house faces of ATF News Gothic Condensed and ATF Rondo have been used. Some of the images are from my growing antique cut collection. Some images are tipped-in archival ink-jet prints from my new Epson C82 printer. The endsheets were printed from photopolymer plates. A leather binding of black pig suede over wood boards is planned for this edition of 100.
