Was thinking this morning while in conversation with my dear friend Bradley Olson over breakfast at the Grand Canyon Cafe that books consist of too many words. I flashed on creating books that have only a title, thus being one page. The reader would "flesh out" the phantom book with their own imagination. The reader thus becomes an imagineer, capturing the images that burst forth from seeing the title. And that would be what the book is about: the flashing of images at first sight, and if the imagineer so desires, meditations on the title over time, seeing what is produced within one's own being. A free-of-charge Rorschach.
My first Imagineer book, in which you are invited to make something of it -- Eating Jesus.
