I decided to conduct an experiment into abstraction, chance and writing. This meant interrogating my bookshelves. I started reading through many texts. Reading from top to bottom in an order based on common fate, chance and randomness. I opened up each book, and each text, one at a time, from right to left, and shuffled through the stacks of information. I recorded the information in fragments, grazing on bits and pieces of text, as how a sheep grazes on grass in a paddock. I did this in order to invite chance to intervene in the invention of the language of the artist. I recorded random sections of books, opened up on any particular page, and began this essay.
