The number 9 is substituted for all the letters "n" of the words in this text. Curt Cloninger in his Master of Fine Arts in Studio Arts thesis wrote about (Maine College of Arts 2008) "Apophatic Art: Enacting Exhaustive Language / Exhausting Enacted Language." He defined Apophatic Writiing: Apophatic writing in the Christian tradition is a way of talking about God that seeks to properly revere him by not overly delimiting him. "Apophasis' is negation and "kataphasis' is affirmation. Since God is beyond all we can affirm about him, in order to more accurately describe him, we must balance our affirmations with reverent negations. Theologian Bruce Ellis Benson (2002) explains, "One affirms something but denies it, because to affirm it too strongly would be heretical and to deny it completely would also be heretical." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
