In the center of each composition, on a rectangular surface, the lines are interrupted more or less randomly on different lengths by a blank space.<\/p>\n

The linear order is therefore subject to breaks, “saccades”, the sum of which on each page provokes an ever-changing “plastic event”: a sensation of order\/disorder, inversion of content\/form, grouping\/dissociation, the prominence of parts or the whole, etc. The visual richness of this livrimage is all the more astonishing because it is based on the (minimal) variations of three elements: the number of lines per sheet (16, 31, 38, 61), the length of the saccade (from 1 to 46 mm) and the location of the saccade on the line (logarithm including random number choices).<\/p>\n
