Since July 2007 Steve Benson has been writing a multi-volume work these pages stem from. Other outcroppings of this opus include a Robert Withers video called “a moment on life/or not,” based on a 2013 reading, a 2014 video by Benson called “What Is Empty,” Time Squared, a 2015 chapbook from Trafficker, and parts of an improvised two-month publishing project earlier in 2015 at annexpress.org.
