overwhelming material to be read — written - looked at - digested

there it is space — landscape — here everything is closed in
there — open — the psychological perspective of being closed in and of vast openness that will overwhelm — man over nature (in nature) or nature (in man?) over man (overman) — vast spaces or life — emptiness — mars landscape — Venus deadly gas heat — Venus goddess — deadly — heat — heat of the sun — incessant sound of the sparrows overlay the pages

“Can we then go on speaking about time, tense and temporal differences” p210

Sunday — the way different systems of writing come together — thinking about (?’s) meme idea from Hofstadter in some of Derrida — also his mention of Gödel — images ideas — of the way the book should be put together (Mallarmé to read) — stacks of pages in one place — a few lines in another etc — horizontal and vertical formats of the binding — a brilliance of ideas rush on p251 which I don’t quite understand but understand intuitively — reverberations to my own text — to take all of my writings and make a series of pages out of them — the idea of writing dates etc — but the problem of how these notes fit into or on or in the page — separate the past — not a part and not separate — not separate but apart (examples)
the concept of the fold — Derrida Burroughs — fold out pages
pages of mylar with different colored sections (a map a body — geometrical figures) ((Simon)) that overlay — overlap to show different angles or aspects
