An opened box with both sides holding loose leaf papers. The one face-up piece of paper contains a block of text and a black-and-white photo of a man.

Floor of Dreams

Thomas Liljenberg, 1997.
 
The loose pages that create 'Floor of Dreams' were collected through internet ads where Liljenberg asked for people to write out their dreams and enclose a photo of themselves. These were printed and shown as a part of the exhibition 'Love All' at Fargfabriken in Stockholm, August 1996. At this set-up, several thousand copies of the dreams were spread out on the floor inside the exhibition hall.

An opened box filled with papers and documents of various sizes, some printed on vellum paper. Around the box are more documents and a vellum sheet with the book's title and information.

Rolywholyover: A Circus

John Cage; edited by Russell Ferguson, 1993.
 
The box includes reprints of texts that Cage found useful and inspiring, as well as important new essays. Also included are writings and letters by Cage, reproductions of works by Cage and others, musical scores, recipes, advice on healthy eating, and photographs.
