An essay on the primordial origins of modern work, as suggested by contemporary interpretations of the 39 Melachot. The essay suggests that perhaps all activities we engage in today, no matter how irrelevant to survival they may seem, may be traced back to a subsistence-based activity. Even filing. And meetings. Created for Impractical Labor's Practice Quarterly. Happily available to non-ILSSA members via Half Letter Press and Printed Matter.
Handset from lead & wood types and printed letterpress.
