Recordings is a series of books that are the result of a physical interaction between the printer and the offset press. Colors are added to the press during printing following a predetermined “score.” The act of printing becomes an act of performance, and the book is the evidence of its occurrence. Recordings conflate books and sculpture. They use the machinery of mechanical reproduction to create visual records of specific, unrepeatable conditions of color and change.

How to Library
- Realize library has all the books you want to read.
- Realize that checking out All The Books, while possible, will not magically generate more time to read them.
- Do it anyway.
