1. Book Post

   A “book post” is placed in the UiB Humanities Library during March 2021, consisting of a table/desk with two stools by it, near a wall.

   Four books are on the table/desk (left to right, in alphabetical order by title): Articulations (Allison Parrish), Golem (Nick Montfort), A Noise Such as a Man Might Make: A Novel (Milton Läufer), and Travesty Generator (Lillian-Yvonne Bertram). Each has a hole drilled through it in the upper left and is secured to the table with a cable, creating a chained library. The books represent the work of four participants in an SLSAeu panel about computer-generated literature.

   A Kodak carousel slide projector is in the middle of the table/desk, projecting small, bright images and texts onto the wall. Slides presenting covers and contents of the five books are shown continually during the exhibition. The selections will be made in consultation with all author/programmers and with their approval.

   The stools allow two readers to sit and peruse the books. The table is wide enough to allow readers to do so while socially distanced.

2. ☯

   A stack of simple handmade booklets (also entitled ☯) made available for free to festival attendees on a pedestal. The booklets present thirty-four Unicode glyphs, two per page spread, representing empty/full oppositions. After these is a “cast of characters” with the official names of the glyphs (in English).
