You begin to sense the byshadows that stretch from the awe of
global dominance. How the intersecting systems help pull us
apart, leaving us vague, drained, docile, soft in our inner
discourse, willing to be shaped, to be overwhelmed -- easy
retreats, half beliefs. Works of art are complex formal
interventions within discursive traditions and their myriad
filiations. These interventions are defined precisely by
their incomparable capacity to trace the dynamics of
historical process in paradoxical gestures of simultaneously
prognostic and mnemonic temporalities.

A `round-the-clock posting of sequenced hypermodern imagery from
{ brad brace }. The hypermodern minimizes the familiar, the known,
the recognizable; it suspends identity, relations and history. This
discourse, far from determining the locus in which it speaks, is
avoiding the ground on which it could find support. It is trying to
operate a decentering that leaves no privilege to any center.
The 12-hour ISBN JPEG Project
-----------------------------
since 1994
Pointless Hypermodern Imagery... posted/mailed every 12 hours... a
spectral, trajective alignment for the 00`s! A continuum of
minimalist masks in the face of catastrophe; conjuring up
transformative metaphors for the everyday... A poetic reversibility
of exclusive events...
A post-rhetorical, continuous, apparently random sequence of
imagery... genuine gritty, greyscale... corruptable, compact,
collectable and compelling convergence. The voluptuousness of the
grey imminence: the art of making the other disappear. Continual
visual impact; an optical drumming, sculpted in duration, on the
endless present of the Net.
An extension of the printed ISBN-Book (0-9690745) series...
critically unassimilable... imagery is gradually acquired, selected
and re-sequenced over time... ineluctable, vertiginous connections.
The 12hr dialtone...
[ see http://www.eskimo.com/~bbrace/netcom/books.txt ]
KEYWORDS: >> Disconnected, disjunctive, distended, de-centered,
de-composed, ambiguous, augmented, ambilavent, homogeneous,
reckless and venerable... >> Multi-faceted miscegnation: oblique,
obsessive, obscure, obdurate... >> Promulgated, personal, permeable,
prolonged, polymorphous, provocative, poetic, plural, perverse,
potent, prophetic, pathological, pointless... >> Emergent, evolving,
eccentric, eclectic, egregious, exciting, entertaining, evasive,
entropic, erotic, entrancing, enduring, expansive...
Every 12 hours, another!... view them, re-post `em, save `em, trade
`em, print `em, even publish them...

The image was to make nothing visible but their connection with
one another by space and air, yet each surrounded by the unique
aura that disengages every deeply seen image from the world of
irrelevant relationships and calls forth a tremor of astonishment
at its fateful necessity. Thus from artworks of dead masters,
over-life-size strangeness whose names we do not know and do not
wish to know, look out at us enigmatically as symbols of all
being.

This project has not received government art-subsidies. Some
opportunities still exist for financially assisting the publication
of editions of large (33x46") prints; perhaps (Iris giclees) inkjet
duotones or extended-black quadtones. Other supporters receive rare
copies of the first three web-offset printed ISBN-Books.
