Johanna Drucker contributes an introductory essay on historic aspects of visual poetry which is carried forth to multimedia information systems of today.

He particularly addresses his own, ongoing Shadow Project that refers to the faint traces people left on nearby surfaces after they were vaporized by the atomic bombs in Japan.
