l’editoria di restaurazione in restaurazione (sebastiano vassalli)

Sebastiano Vassalli a Paolo Fossati, nel 1971:

This the early mode, as has, so let.

Thomas Lowe Taylor — SYNTAXIN

So if anything is the sum of all you can bring to it, then each word is a syntax of its own dimensions in reference to its past and its future as well indicating neither time nor space but both together.
