Book excerpt: Some pieces use generative schemes, portraits of mental shapes, which create meaning out of noise. In "Hours" and "Setting, the Table," Field uses indeterminate performance techniques to emphasize the categorical/conceptual nature of thought. Visually, each chapter is captivating, showing both the author's need for shapes and colors in her work, and her fascination with the contours of speech."--BOOK JACKET.
