eric lunde: eat the
copy redux (3 x CDR, 2 x books, linocut print)
this release is readings and provocations from and about the book somnium 3: eat the copy! by eric lunde.
the book somnium 3: eat the copy! is an account of eric lunde’s
experience through high-grade covid infection that landed him in the ICU for
the first week of December 2023. In Eric's own words:
the third installment in the somnium™ series, series 3 follows the somnium template of 137 episodes of 137 words (think physics not psychics....the significance being that in physics 137 was once believed to be the exact value of the fine-structure constant, a number which, according to leon lederman, "shows up naked all over the place.”) the series follows the authors adventures in covid-induced hallucinations until arriving at the obvious conclusion: we are the virus! we are all copies of the virus! eat the copy!
it is a poetic rendering of the experience, hallucinatory and ultimately enlightening for mr. lunde.
this release includes somnium 3 (208 pages); eat the copy! redux (124 pages, textual and textual/visual rendering of elements of somnium 3) a print, and three CDRs:
disc 1: 137 degradations by eric lunde
disc 2: “137 at 137 inches” by blake edwards: four layered microcassette to microcassette recordings of layered readings of somnium 3 redlined and then mixed
disc 3: various expositions by j soliday, blake edwards, karl paloucek, and jeph jerman, framing selected readings from somnium 3.just look at this party:
