Introgic Enclodiacy by mIEKAL aND, 1989 published by Xexoxial Editions

The cards are held in a clear plastic cassette container. Title is taken from a blurb in cassette container. Each card is illustrated on one side, with a neologism printed on the reverse. Miekal And has written definitions for his neologisms in the form of a response on the card. Synopsis: Neologims such as "gmeknont," defined as: "To pull away from an argument because no one is listening to you & you know you are right. For example 'The opposition choose gmeknont in a long-standing debate.'" The artist writes in his introduction: "The first edition of Introgic Enclodiacy was created in 1983 & was intended to be a set of 'flashcards' for the neologisms in my book Knowledge Swirling Man Tells Slow Stories. At that time I included only the words on the cards because I had yet to experience definitions for them. Now in 1989 after living with the book & such words I have written mental responses to each word, both associative & otherwise. But definitions are temporary, & redefinition by usage is entirely possible. The neologisms are words are sounds which are points of information (or meditation) which lead the user beyond words & concrete meaning." --from Printed Matter Online Catalogue

Inspiration from trip to the V&A "A while ago I went to an 'Artist books' exhibition at the V&A to get inspiration for my work and as a form of research. It was amazing to see the different types of books, many people would assume that books should look like traditional books. It was refreshing to see how creative artists can be, the various types of styles, materials, pages, layouts showed that books could still be books without needing to adhere to the traditional form. The most interesting aspect was the binding, not your traditional hardback or stapled, some didn't look like books at all. This book immediately caught my eye out of the whole display. The work comprises a copy of a book entitled 'Vincent Van Gogh', which has been overprinted in black and sealed at the edges with nuts and bolts. The covers of this unopened book has been driven through with nails, the points which face out threateningly and decorated with splashes of red paint resembling blood. I love the way it doesn't open like a traditional book; the way it has been made makes me curious and think maybe the book reflects how the artist felt when he/she made it. The words angry and frustrated seem to shout from the book." -Sandie Ly
