How fitting is it that Kurt's essay invoking Easter Sunday is added to this website on Easter Sunday, 2018? Written in the mid-1970s, Kurt begins with commentary on yellow, the color of the paper he was using that day. An element of the magic Kurt employed was accepting all things, even the color of typing paper, as tokens of wisdom or oracles of guidance. For Kurt, joy came through following the thread, the woof connecting each thing to every thing. "Would the form, i.e. the color of the stock, the paper, the material form as a token of the space which is then marked, be preserved in the publishing of this--and by this, these marks in ink on this paper, as tokens of some words, which are themselves not spoken but thought, and which thoughts are only most summarily indicated by the words, etc.?"
