Scope and Contents
Gaze explains in his introduction that his texts are improvised asemic texts which means no semantic content. Composed of writings from other languages and made up works by the artist, they incorporate writing and an infra-verbal level. Gaze notes that asemic texts have no writer-intended meaning. "If you the viewer perceive a meaning, you've created that meaning yourself." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
