“a glimpse of” is an online project which connects texts, images and sounds for an unpredictable narrative in progress. Each issue starts with a text which is republished as a word reservoir and a source of free associations. Each contributor choses a word from there. This word is the subject of his/her submission and the link between his/her work and the republished text. The words-links generate a new narrative made by art and sound works, photographs, works of fiction prose and poetry.

The republished texts in the nine issues include a faux-interview by Wayne Koestenbaum, notes on purple by Derek Jarman, a play by Gertrude Stein and an essay about the novella by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari. Among the contributors’ works are the portrait of a “virgin” by The Callas, a photo of the “world” by Yannis Drakoulidis, the “no” sounds by Irini Karayannopoulou, a prose “cake” by Antonis Katsouris, a “morv” photo by Panayiotis Lamprou and an “elemental” poem by Angela Mewes.

The project will be presented by Dimitra Ioannou at the OMMU temporary bookstore.
