An ongoing project formatted to mimic scientific supplemental publications that were popular in the 1920s. Nicolai invites guest editors, basing his choice entirely on his own personal relationship to their work, to propose an idea that will form the content of one supplement. His goal is to create an archive of interconnected thought, formed entirely on the basis of his own individual interest. The content of the contribution may be freely chosen, but must include a third element (a collaborator, a visual or textual quote, etc.) in order to further the goal of the project, which is to create a web of influence, in which Nicolai sits at dead center. Contributors receive all subsequent supplements. The edition sold here contains ten issues including contributions by Stephen Willats, Lawrence Weiner, and Micha Kuball. Much of the text is in German, with a few English translations.
