›Grundkurs im wissenschaftlichen Definieren‹ is part of my series ›Copy and Erasure.‹ The work originates from a second-hand book* in which the previous owner had left not a single passage underlined. For this piece, I transcribed the entire text by hand and subsequently deleted every passage that had remained unmarked in the original volume.“
