(Moral Rearment: The Ghost/The Phantoms)

"96 images of women underlie Moral Rearmament. I linked these to terms from books about the capacity for internal self-organisation within systems, about thermodynamics and knowledge representation, about methods of organisation within systems in a state of imbalance, about connectionist networks and about the possibilities to represent concepts and associations. In the margins of that big project, I have made many separate works that have ended up magnetically, and therefore rearrangeably, on the frameworks of my HeadNurse structures."
