Literature vs traffic, installation, Luzinterruptus

The Spanish art collective’s February 17th public installation saw them distribute 2000 books with lights interleaved amongst the pages across the roads and sidewalks of Water St, New York in the gentrified Dumbo district. The books were scattered in such a way that pedestrians could navigate their path through them undisturbed or interact with the books if they wished.

I’d have loved to leave work on the 17th and find myself an island in a starfield of story fragments.
