[Three images of an artwork show a clamped stack of paper atop a white pedestal at three different times; the pedestal is outdoors on a grassy field with trees in the distance.] LEFT: [A thick stack of paper documents is clamped in a blue driss press type vice; the papers sway to the side like a soft book read left to right or right to left. CENTER: [A thick stack of paper documents compressed at its center by a C-clamp hosts three columns of numbers across 26 rows.] RIGHT: [A thick stack of paper documents is held in a right angle framer's clamp such that half of the papers are clamped one side with the other half of the papers clamped on the other. The papers may be each be viewed by turning the pages on one side or alternating turns from each side to cross the papers perpendicularly.]
