Extracts

About the Book

EXTRACTS is a re-source for artists, writers and thinkers who are looking to expand their radius of insights and wisdom. It is presented in a random way to optimize the possible connections that lurk in the shadows of our perceived realities. Significances emerge in random forays that would otherwise be overlooked in categorically structured formats. This book is for those who choose to make connective leaps on their own terms, guided by the pioneers of past and present.
