At times that sort of thing can be forgotten amid the never-ending verbals.<br /><br />The words have always come first. But they have been made to show a little respect for the images. In the end they seem not to have minded, perhaps even enjoyed the company. <br /><br />I suppose the entire history of this blog is that of a modest experiment in thinking of images and texts at play with and/or speaking with each other, or even better yet, not speaking, just lying there side by side, as if after having had some sort of interesting relations of which we are allowed to know perhaps not very much, only just this.
