Excerpts are the perfect embodiment of the visibility machine's viral power, "a process of simple visibility." One hand, We haven't actually experienced the work and are thus unable to critique, while the other hand takes the pamphlet of press, the implicit statement that the exhibition has worth, strung up along with the name of a museum, featured on CAD. Visibility outpacing thought we aren't able to think, just that we know its accreditation, and spread unthinkable, given in to feeds of publicity. And thus both hands are bound, to the publicity machine misplaced as exhibitions, bent over the computer screen, and we take it.
